A10 Thunder ADC vs. F5 BIG-IP DNS

I recommend it but would like to mention that the buyer should analyze their needs very well and perform exhaustive service tests prior to purchase.

• More support documentation will be a nice to have.
• I have not automated DNS deployments yet, but it would be nice to have ansible libraries for this module. (I have used ansible for many others).

Support said the devices will work in our environment but when we had the device working we realized that it was not possible to do what we wanted, for this reason, our experience was not entirely good and we did not like the way they approached us for the sale of the device.

F5 DNS is like DNS with out training wheels and data that can help you make real changes and improvements

• A10 Thunder ADC had a negative impact on the company, due to the fact that the client had to monitor a large number of sites, which could not be achieved with this device.
• This led to looking for another alternative.
• It is more beneficial for companies that do not need to monitor a large number of websites as the security and stability provided by the device are excellent.

Incentivized

• Protection against security threats using DNS as a vector.
• Protection against security threats targeting DNS itself.
• Provide top user experience to application clients, by directing their requests to where they will be treated with the best performance.
