Performance
F5
Overall, F5 Distributed Cloud Network Connect is responsive and has many features. There is minor clunkiness in how certain scroll bars are layered. This may cause some adverse experience when trying to manage this product through a zoomed browser. Page loading and refresh timers were all very much responsive. There is a good amount of feedback from the interface as well.

This software as a service (SaaS) links, divides, and protects network traffic over one or more edge sites, data centers, and public clouds. It offers the adaptability needed to operate across many transit choices, such as the F5 Global Network, private corporate networks, and cloud provider linkages. Additionally, faster time to resolution and more effective issue management are achieved by end-to-end monitoring and troubleshooting.
