Find out what your peers are saying about F5, Citrix, HAProxy and others in Application Delivery Controllers (ADC)."One of the most valuable features of this solution is the server load balancing. Something that sets this solution apart from other products is that the hardware has a much higher capacity than other vendors. That's the edge of Array Networks. Their technical support services are also very good."
"We only need one subscription to be protected against both active DDoS and offline DDoS attacks."
"The updating and signature features are my primary use case for the solution. These features are beneficial to my organization."
"The most valuable feature is the automatic content filtering."
"The installation is straightforward."
"It significantly improved our overall web security posture, addressing intrusions and enhancing control over web URLs in our environment."
"One of the strongest points is its robust issue discovery capabilities. Barracuda invests significant efforts in identifying and resolving issues. They have multiple products that work in tandem to perform these checks, which is beneficial because it automates security updates. This is the primary reason I recommend it to my customers."
"The solution offers multiple security features. There are machine learning features and great URL encryption. It also offers multi-protocol support against DDoS attacks."
"Has a good dashboard."
"I would like to see more granular reporting and monitoring features, and I believe our clients want to see them as well. Also, SD-WAN would be a good addition."
"There are issues when upgrading firewalls and we experience different issues across customers."
"Its interface can be better. It is not very friendly."
"I would like to see better controlling of the traffic."
"In the Barracuda Web Application Firewall, there should be more affordable options for WAF as a service."
"The reporting aspect of the solution needs improvement. I don't find that it's very good. They could do some work on it to make it much better. It's not that the reporting isn't secure. It's just that I would prefer to store my reports for an extended period of time. Right now, that's not possible and I'd prefer it if that could change. I also would say that the reports themselves are expensive."
"The solution could use more reports."
"We encountered a few glitches while implementing API security features into the product."
"As most people are aware, the implementation is not easy."
