Aspirin also has many benefits, but we still only use it when necessary!
Centralized management allows network policies to be created, deployed, and updated close to real-time, without hardware intervention or changes.

In some cases, a massive cost savings is possible, again in other cases this is not relevant due to architecture or business goals / requirements.
For example, organizations with simple networks or low device utilization are unlikely to see many benefits from deploying an SD-LAN. However, among extreme cases for each of which an SD-LAN would be clearly beneficial or counterproductive, there are a variety of use cases that require a cost-benefit assessment to justify such a new project.

In the real world, things get even more complex:
Many companies don't know what they already have or what they will actually need but they do know they need to change something. Starting a new and expensive project under these conditions is not the best recipe for a successful outcome.
Let's conclude by rephrasing the title question:
Do I really need an SD-LAN? And if not, then what?
To find a meaningful answer, it is worthwhile to review the current state of the network environment, define the future ideal state, and create a 𝗕𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗖𝗮𝘀𝗲. The results, of such a systematic process, provide the answers, the recoveries and the execution plan.
