Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

We were using another solution but it had limitations and a lot of downtimes. That's when we changed the product.

Good stability and scalability with very good technical support

What is most valuable?

I don't have the level of detail to discuss the most valuable features of the solution. It doesn't come into my area of focus. The scalability and stability are quite good in general.

What needs improvement?

I don't have too many details about what is lacking in the solution as I don't work with the solution in depth. The initial setup could be a bit easier. When it comes to networking from NetScaler, we have a continuous challenge in terms of… more»

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

I don't have enough information on the pricing or what our company pays in order to discuss licensing in any great detail.

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

We didn't previously use a different solution.

What other advice do I have?

We're using an older version of the solution, not the newest version. We use the on-premises deployment model. We don't use the solution ourselves, rather, we provide services to our clients. We're testing it for a client right now. Whether… more»

Good security, documentation, and technical support, but the price should be lower

What is most valuable?

The most valuable feature is security, as it gives me the port bindings that cannot be accomplished using other solutions. This solution gives me IPv6 layering over IPv4, which is helpful for some environments. The documentation is very… more»

What needs improvement?

I would like to either see the price reduced or have it packaged with other products to give better value for the money. For example, other solutions have multiple services embedded in their appliance, which gives better value.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

As NetScaler is now, I find it quite pricey.

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

I have also work with similar solutions from Riverbed. I found that the documentation and support from Citrix were better.

What other advice do I have?

My advice to anybody who is considering this product is to first understand the business and the requirements. No solution should be purchased in haste. I have seen businesses with proper tools but they don't know what to do with them. I… more»
