MPLS PROVIDES A TECHNOLOGY PLATFORM DESIGNED TO SUPPORT CONVERGED NETWORKS – WITH MANY ADVANTAGES INCLUDING:

• A dedicated built-in level of network security.

• Any-to-any connectivity, including voice, data, and video conferencing.

• Scalability to support both large and small VPN deployments and to enable connectivity to multiple sites.

• High flexibility with strength in disaster recovery. For example, MPLS networks are robust and quite able to cope with the loss of a single processing center.

• Easily allows for the deployment of value-added features, including CoS (Class of Service) allowing you to assign different priorities to voice, transaction processing, video, and other data.

However, many are finding that newer technologies provide better capabilities than MPLS. Many MPLS networks are being replaced by SD-WAN and s.a.s.e. 

Usually, MPLS Circuit costs consist of two parts: the circuit cost (e.g., fiber, T1, coax, or DS3) plus the cost of the MPLS service. The MPLS service pricing varies among the different carriers. It could be around $100 per circuit or twice that depending on exactly which MPLS services are required.
