F5 Distributed Cloud Bot Defense Review
- So when the traffic increases it's auto balance and then also gives the user the stickiness to the space fake pod to run with.
- It can be optimized to be more user-friendly. Right now it takes a little time and more training to understand things, but if it can have the self-reveal video it can improve the quality of the product.

- Strong anti-bot protection against middle-level threats
- Analysis and alerting on known problem areas
- Customer support - before and after installation, [F5] Shape [Security] has supported us actively to see the product realize value.
- On a technical side, we've had a lot of deployment issues. This is not a one-sprint solution.
- We ran into undocumented failure modes and had to rely on L2 and L3 customer support, delaying troubleshooting significantly [in our experience].
- Accurate log ingestion is a larger challenge than one would want in a security tool.
