Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The most valuable feature of F5 Advanced WAF is its ability to have a pool of resources that can distribute your traffic, and that is a plus for me. My company tried to look into a competitor, Imperva, but it was lacking that capability, so F5 Advanced WAF outperforms Imperva.""We can monitor IP locations, but we have constraints from each country. It has a replication feature. Licenses can be shared, taking turns with each license.""One of the most valuable features is the Local Traffic Manager.""The solution isn't too expensive. The license allows you to license what you need and leave out what you don't need.""The most valuable features of F5 Advanced WAF are the balancer and you can change policies very easily.""Very easy to implement and works well.""The most valuable feature is artificial intelligence and to get extra internal access.""F5 technical support is excellent. They are experts who always provide the right solution, and they understand the problem. Their response and resolution times are good."

Cons
"I would say their graphical interface, the GUI. I don't like the GUI as much as before.""People who want to work with the device have to be pro in Linux""Most customers encounter stability issues with the product's Big-IP logs.""One thing that can be improved, is to increase the quantity over predefine policy.""The solution is tedious. It takes a lot of discrete settings so one needs to get detailed and granular when they use the solution. It takes you a whole lot of energy and concentration to configure. It needs to be much more straight-forward, like other web solutions.""F5 Advanced WAF could improve on its funding for WAF features. There is a need to be more advanced WAF features.""The solution should include protection against web page attacks like what is available in FortiWeb.""I would not expect traffic details to pass through the web application firewall across the length of the whole application. I think that there is a web application where it can let the application function without traffic going in into the WAF."

"The solution should have a Data Mask for the next release. It would be helpful for banking institutions as they would be able to hide the server number of the ATM machine in the CPU."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "The pricing is too high."
  • "I think the price is very high."
  • "After buying the program, you just pay for the support every year."

  • "It's more expensive than other solutions and depending on the modules, there can be additional fees."
  • "F5 bundles up services and the bundle is what you pay for rather than individual components."
  • "Its price is fair. We have done a couple of deals where they were able to give some kind of discount to the customers. The price was initially high for the customers, but after a couple of negotiations, it came within their budget. They were happy with that."
  • "There are various plans available for Fortinet FortiWeb Cloud WAF as a Service, including a trial version."
