We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The FIM feature, the information in the new management system, and their support are the most valuable features. The scanned results are quite fast as compared to other platforms compared to scanning timing. It takes about a minute or two minutes. Also, the results of the Comodo scan results are in detail.""The solution is pretty stable. I've never faced pressing issues or hanging issue."

"The most valuable feature is the load-balancing reverse proxy.""I found the link load balancer and server load balancer are the most valuable.""It is easy to expand. Our clients are enterprise-size.""I like the ADC feature and the global certificate feature.""The best features are the security through the web application firewall, the functionality that the solution offers, being a load balancer with the security functionality on top of it, and the ease of administration.""A user-friendly and reasonably priced solution.""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. Radware Alteon is most useful for customizing in-house applications based on ports and protocols.""The GUI was a valuable feature. It was uncomplicated and easy to use."

Cons
"The solution needs to build better performance, specifically in the hardware resources.""A small problem is from the support team. Sometimes they are a bit delayed."

More Comodo cWatch Cons →

"Load balancing needs improvement. It needs better integration. I heard f5 works as a DNS operator which is not available in this solution. It would be better if that was implemented.""A feature that I would like to see included in the next version might be a better analysis when working with crypt issues. Right now, it is very manual; you load it into Alteon and it runs. It would be interesting to see a more dynamic process.""Scalability should be based on customer requirements.""Radware Alteon could improve the troubleshooting from the command line interface, they could do a better job making it easier.""Support is very important because if we get good support, we'll be able to sell and supply more numbers.""It can be improved by combining the web application firewall (WAF) facility.""I would like the solution to display and help visualize the reference map more easily. I would also like to better understand where queries come from and know which users are consulting the application, along with which app.""The user interface can be improved."

Pricing and Cost Advice
Information Not Available
  • "It has a good price point and is more reasonable than other comparable products"
  • "Radware Alteon is less expensive than many of the other competitors."
  • "The pricing is better than the competition. It is getting more pricey as the years go on, as more people are migrating to it, and as the technology gets better."
  • "I'm content with Alteon's pricing."
  • "Alteon's price is excellent compared to other solutions. F5 costs around twice as much. We still have about three years left before this hardware reaches the end of its life. We're migrating to the cloud, and phasing some of this out, but it's nice that they've given us a long window to keep their hardware in place."
  • "The cost of Radware Alteon is mid-ranged."
  • "Its pricing is very good. It is very competitive. Radware Alteon is the leader in the market. At a lesser price, we get a good product and also good support. Other vendors who are providing load balancers charge separately for two items. You have the hardware cost, and you have the support cost, whereas, in the case of Radware, you get both in a single package."
  • "The solution is cost-efficient."
