    McAfee Web Gateway is best suited for all types of organizations if they wan to achieve the security for their users as it has the large intel database as well. The best part is its flexible hybrid deployment methods- it can be deployed on premises (hardware and virtual), in the cloud, or both for the high availability.

    Because I'm a cybersecurity expert. I'm always lacking the cybersecurity part, but it's more of my ADM than others. If it wasn't for that, I would probably rate in a 10.

    Excellent products based on all the needs we had. Most of our use cases has been able to implement. DLP is kind of difficult to implement but possible. However you needs a big team to handle the tools as it's capabilities and management is complex. Nevertheles you can find a way to leverage all the funcionality when needed.

    managing other products (NS) are a pain in the neck and make me want to pull my hair out. Im sure there are things that the F5 can improve on and their road map and ideas are at the cutting edge. I cant wait to see how their plans work out and make the product better in the future.
