Find out what your peers are saying about F5, Citrix, HAProxy and others in Application Delivery Controllers (ADC)."We use the HDX protocol, a high-performing component of the Citrix solutions. We also use provisioning to generate VM and NetScaler ADC solutions to propose access to applications for our customers."
"I like the solution's load balance with DNS intelligence."
"The most valuable feature is the SSL offloading capacity."
"The user interface is very easy and integrates with Sandbox easily."
"The solution provides high-level services such as availability, redundancy, and load balancing between servers."
"The main feature that we use is GSLB (Global Server Load Balancing). GSLB makes the customer's network more reliable by scaling applications across multiple datacenters. GSLB as a disaster recovery solution can direct traffic based on site availability."
"It's a good product because it supports all the features that ADC solutions in the market can support, like F5 solutions, for example, such as the LTM of F5."
"Simple to use and easy to integrate."
"From a technical perspective, it is the most scalable device from Fortinet."
"We discussed problems with the network products with the Indian teams. The support center for network products is located in India. There are language barriers and issues with the time difference, so we sometimes face restrictions when dealing with this team."
"Fortinet FortiADC should include an advanced-level SD-WAN."
"Issues with SSL and encrypted traffic."
"Technical support and documentation could both be improved."
"I had a terrible experience with Fortinet support. I only used support once when I bought the solution. I got no response for two days. However, I believe that it's no longer the case. Fortinet solutions have problems when they're launched. For example, we had issues with Fortinet's authenticator when it came out. We also had trouble with FortiNAC in the beginning."
"The product’s price could be reduced. Also, some of its features need to be more advanced."
"Setup could be easier. The company's homework is to redesign those menus to configure with the smallest number of steps."
"I think it would be helpful if Fortinet put more video examples on their cookbook site."
"The initial setup could be simplified."
