Find out what your peers are saying about F5, Citrix, HAProxy and others in Application Delivery Controllers (ADC)."The solution's stability is pretty good."
"Good application firewall."
"If I were to choose one key feature in particular, perhaps it would be the iRule feature. It’s a really versatile tool."
"We use F5 BIG-IP Local Traffic Manager to balance traffic."
"The combination of ADC and WAN is the most valuable feature."
"I've worked a little bit with iRules and it is amazing."
"The occasion in which we needed technical support, we didn't have problems with them, because they always answered our questions without any trouble."
"Where we are finding the AWS version helpful is when we are trying to scale up new environments. AWS Marketplace helps here a lot."
"The SpeedFusion feature is the most valuable."
"The most valuable feature is the virtual VPN concentrator."
"In the Philippines, VPN usage may not be widely known, but we leverage VPN effectively within my organization. I've shared our in-house systems with other district offices, as I cover fifteen municipalities and cater to the entire province. This platform is a valuable tool for us, enabling collaborative work, and allowing us to update our services remotely."
"Our customers find it to be an interesting and tempting solution."
"It is a very stable product."
"The SpeedFusion feature is good. It allowed us to move away from IPsec between the sites. It is also a really easy product to deploy."
"The valuable feature is that, after reading about its capabilities and using it for a while, Peplink SpeedFusion employs eight technologies within its SD-WAN profile, addressing issues like packet loss and latency. The solution is highly stable. I rate it a nine out of ten. The support team gives quick response and efficient local support."
"To improve the product, they could add more load balancing solutions in Kubernetes."
"In terms of native integrations, there is a lot of instability. Also, integration is not robust with F5."
"Native support for containers should be added to future releases, as this is the future of load balancing."
"The management interface is unclear, complex, and not concise. I would like a better user interface."
"The one gap I saw was that pure LBN integration is a little tricky. The insertion of F5 in LBN is a little tricky. They need to work on something, on products by which they can insert F5 in any sort of cloud environment."
"The initial setup can take a long time."
"The solution's hardware quality needs improvement."
"The logging features are too limited and do not give us a solid understanding of what's happening."
"The product needs to aggregate the bandwidth of different ISPs. It needs to improve scalability as well."
"Its pricing is the main issue. The pricing could be improved. I would like to see an outbound policy based on the application. It is a very good feature, and most of the customers are looking for that. They can also include stronger firewall features. This would help the customers in choosing this product as the only device for the SD network."
"They don't have next generation firewall, UTM, like the other competitors."
"There is room for improvement in enhancing security features, such as incorporating intrusion detection blocking capabilities and integrating artificial intelligence to bolster security aspects on the device."
"The stability has room for improvement."
"Their hardware support isn't the greatest. We've had one unit go down, and it took a while for them to replace it. It was in the Caribbeans, so it might be a location-related issue."
"I believe there could be some enhancements in the enterprise segment, offering greater options or something similar."
