A10 Thunder TPS Reviews

We use A10 Thunder TPS for load balancing, especially server load balancing.

The solution's firewall features are the most valuable feature of the solution. I think we can use all the features or capabilities that come with the product's license. Maybe today, we are just implementing an SOP or LOB.

We have had some issues with implementation. So, it is the only area that needs improvement. However, I have no issues with the product, so it is probably fine.

I have experience with A10 Thunder TPS.

The solution's support is one of the coolest things about the product. I rate the solution's technical support an eight and a half out of ten.

Positive

We are currently having some issues with the implementation. I think it is because the partner is not ready for implementation, and it's not that they don't have the experience. So, even though we have some issues right now with implementation, the product is very good.

The solution's price is one of the coolest things about the product. We may need to pay fifty percent more if we purchase other solutions. For the payments made to A10 Thunder TPS, we have received three-year support.

I rate the overall product a nine out of ten.

We are the main distributor for A10 Networks. It is used as an appliance. It is mainly used to identify problems in the network. It helps us to stop any type of DDoS attack.

We are using its latest version.

They give us the ability to configure many features for DDoS. There are many items that we can use.

It is very difficult to implement. It should be made a bit easier to implement. There is also a lack of resources on the internet. They need to develop more resources.

We have been a distributor for more than five years.

It is mostly stable.

Their support is good, but it is not excellent.

It is very difficult to do the setup. It needs to be a little bit easier. There are not many resources on the internet for help, and there are also not many people who have knowledge of this product.

Its implementation takes two to three weeks. Two engineers are usually enough.

Before implementing this solution, you should know and get complete information about the features that are possible and that are not possible.

I would rate it a six out of 10. It should be easier to set up. Currently, it is very difficult.

Our primary use case is for our support ticketing and invoice generation. We're resellers and we provide it to our customers. 

Our other use cases are for keeping a record of all the invoices and we use it for our sales to track the accrued sales. 

We can keep track of all the customer's requirements. We can forecast our trails and we can forecast our overall financial things.

We are really trying to improve our sales module. When we need to see our exact payments and invoices we can track which payments and invoices are due so that we can make sure that all the invoices are done on time.

I would like for them to develop an advanced reporting feature. 

It is very stable. We're using a very basic model and it's the basic version. There are very few features so for those features, it is very stable. If we decide that we're going to implement more features into it, then there could be some concern about the stability of the product.

Scalability is fine. 

We have sixteen users. On the support side when we generate tickets, we are quoted fifty plus customers that are on this solution.

The initial setup was straightforward. Deployment only took a few hours. The  user training takes at least a day and then the whole site will go up in around a weeks time. It's all web-based so the back ends sometime require us to make changes but overall it's pretty simple and straightforward.

We only require one staff member for maintenance. 

I would rate it a seven out of ten. 

One of the largest persistent threats to service uptime is Distributed Denial of Service Attacks (DDoS). The networking industry and business analysts are seeing a trend in increasing DDoS attacks. These attacks are occurring more frequently and with greater intensity and increased sophistication. Legacy DDoS protection solutions suffer from the following fatal limitations that have made them ineffective at protecting against these attacks:

• Lack of flexibility

• Inability to scale

MULTI-VECTOR ATTACK PROTECTION

Detect and mitigate DDoS attacks of many types, including volumetric, protocol, or resource attacks; application-level attacks; or IoT-based attacks. Hardware acceleration offloads the CPUs and makes Thunder TPS particularly adept to deal with simultaneous multi-vector attacks

The A10 aGalaxy management system provides centralized management of Thunder TPS systems and policies, orchestrates detection and mitigation of DDoS attacks, and delivers a single-pane-of-glass view of the generated reports across all managed Thunder TPS appliances.

No need to license each feature to activate it, it got a perpetual licensing and everything is there, you just have to configure and enable the feature when you need it.

Select Thunder TPS hardware models to benefit from our Security and Policy Engine (SPE) hardware acceleration, leveraging FPGA-based FTA technology and other hardware-optimized packet-processing for highly scalable flow distribution and hardware DDoS protection capabilities.
