Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
"The initial setup was was easy to install."
"I like them because I like the security solution. They get extra marks compared to other solutions or competitors. There are more features than any other product I can think of. They're always monitoring, and the security features offer more than other, lesser products."
"The most valuable feature is artificial intelligence and to get extra internal access."
"With F5 Advanced WAF, it was protection for online publications and for our customers that caused us to choose the platform."
"The best solution for WAF."
"I definitely recommend this solution because of the time you save on analysis."
"The solution isn't too expensive. The license allows you to license what you need and leave out what you don't need."
"This solution inspects your traffic and based on that, automatically create distinct qualities for you, so you can add this to the policy already created. That's what I like most."
"The features that mitigate attacks are very valuable."
"Security is one of the most valuable features that I like. It is easy to use and easy to configure."
"I like the concept of self-service, that I can do everything on my own."
"The product offers high availability."
Cons
"People who want to work with the device have to be pro in Linux"
"You have to buy another module with an extra license, to have the authentication feature."
"The administrator's user interface and some of the settings can sometimes be very complicated to understand."
"F5 Advanced WAF needs better integration within the application, like remote dashboards."
"I think the deployment templates can be better."
"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."
"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 GUI needs to be improved. Right now, the solution isn't so user-friendly."
"Support is very important because if we get good support, we'll be able to sell and supply more numbers."
"You need to have pretty good internal knowledge of the solution."
"The pricing is too high."
"I think the price is very high."
"After buying the program, you just pay for the support every year."
"Licensing fees for this solution are paid on a yearly basis."
"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."
