NetScaler vs Radware LinkProof comparison

"The load balancing feature and the fact that you can do context switching in the WAF are the most valuable. We majorly use it for load balancing, but we also use it for context switching in the WAF. It is also robust and very easy to work with and manage."

"The solution is very stable. We don't have any downtime or issues of that nature."

"Most of the functions are user-friendly and great."

"Easy, user-friendly setup with content switching and integrated caching features."

"Its customer support service is good."

"The solution is extremely stable."

"From a security standpoint, It is a comprehensive solution in a single box."

"It's very easy to configure."

"Provides good performance and scalability."

"It is a stable solution...It is a scalable solution."

"The most valuable feature of Radware LinkProof is that it supports link load balance."

"The most valuable feature of Radware LinkProof for traffic distribution is its DNS management capability."

"The performance and stability are the most valuable features."

"Citrix should improve the documentation. It is not really clear how to set up many features to our advantage. When we setup Citrix NetScaler ADC, we have to figure it out by ourselves without a lot of documentation."

"They can improve the scalability and the multi-tenancy feature. We recently tried to configure an authentication, and we ran into some issues while using the web-based GUI. It was very slow when you log in with your credentials in the web-based GUI. Each time we clicked on the menu, it tried to do the authentication. It works properly in the console."

"The main areas for improvement would be around documentation and support. If a feature can be used in two or three ways, show that feature being used in all of those ways. Documentation seems to only cover the primary use case and leaves you to either run through trial and error or consult the user community. In terms of support, I have never actually had them solve any of my issues. I have always solved them myself and then provided the resolution to support."

"There are some drawbacks, such as using EUG for specific configurations. It could be improved."

"Some of our customers have questioned the security of this solution lately, wondering whether it is safe or not, so enhancements in this respect would be good."

"The solution could be more secure."

"I think the documentation should be improved."

"Its GUI should be improved. Its CLI is powerful, but GUI needs more features."

"There are certain features I would like to see in the next release."

"Could have more customizations on the dashboard."

"Radware LinkProof’s customer support could be improved."

"The solution lacks HA configuration."

"Radware LinkProof's marketing efforts need improvement to raise awareness about its capabilities and compete effectively in the market."

"The firewall license is included by default, with no additional costs."

"It is very pricey, but we get it. If you need the best, money shouldn't be a problem."

"The client pays for the Citrix NetScaler license annually."

"We have been evaluating F5, Citrix, and other ADC products. Citrix is the most expense of all of them."

"You get the value for your money. There aren't any hidden fees."

"It is true that it is a bit pricey compared to newer technologies coming to the market. For example, A10 is a load balancer that does everything that Citrix can and it does a lot more than what NetScaler does when it comes to the security space, and their prices are so cheap. Every box comes with its own license and support built into it. When you compare that with NetScaler, you have to buy licenses separately, you have to buy a support agreement that is going to be separate. A small NetScaler, even if it is a VPX which is a virtual server, could cost you close to $150,000 to $200,000 dollars. So the pricing is really high."

"We are quite happy with price. It's not too high."

"The licenses for this product are payable as a yearly subscription, and carry a high price-point. The subscription scheme is quite complicated, and costs will increase with each additional feature that is required, outside of the basic setup."

"Price-wise, the solution is a reasonable one."

"Radware LinkProof is neither cheap nor expensive."
