"The command line interface is simple and very user-friendly."
"The features that mitigate attacks are very valuable."
"The most valuable aspect is the ability to customize the types of load-balancing scenarios needed for customized applications. Some of the load balancers on the market today are strictly out-of-hand load balancers for SSL or HTTP.

"I would like to improve the tool's turnaround time in terms of support."
"I loved the approach of the cloud. The cloud has a lot of new features, like advanced web protection and DDoS protection. If those could also be on-boarded onto the on-prem versions, that would be ideal. They need to pay attention to both deployment options and not just favor one."
"Scalability should be based on customer requirements."
"I would like for the load balancing to work with premier and the cloud, a mix of premium and cloud."
"The interface implementation can be improved."
"We are having a difficult time with the security module, and how to implement the Radware security."
"We don't integrate anything with it because most things don't integrate with Radware. If it were F5, we could integrate it. We can integrate F5 with practically anything that integrates with a load balancer, but that's not the case with Alteon."
"We recently had a problem with the tables Obsolete ARP which was observed by the support team. It would be good to diagnose and solve this problem with a patch since it is not documented that it will be solved in later updates."
"We’d like the solution to include more security features in the standard license."
"Performance could be improved."
