"With Kemp 360 Central, our customers get a nice overview of their Kemp products and an easy way to upgrade firmware on all devices from a single interface."

"The cost of the GEO upgrade is not cost-prohibitive but it's something that would be a nice add-in, out of the box."
"To make it a perfect ten out of ten it would need better connection logging. If there is an active connection, that there is better logging. It should also have better management monitoring tools."
"In the next release, Kemp should include the ability for LoadMaster to create different DNS record types."
"They need to improve the UI environment. Currently, it's hard to navigate and use product."
