Overall Satisfaction with F5 BIG-IP
BIG-IP is used to connect to our VPN from remote locations. It's used by the entire organization--although it's only required when those users are connecting remotely. It allows us to connect to intranet resources when we're not at one of our company's office buildings where access is granted automatically.
- It just works.
- Includes options to auto connect if you use it daily or manually connect/disconnect as needed.
- Occasionally, it fails to connect and gives me very little feedback to help me correct the problem.
- The interface is simple, but a bit dated.
- Working remotely is consistent and reliable which makes for less down time caused by days out of the office.
- Allows users to work remotely from home or any other secure network.
I can't recall the name of the previous software we used for remote intranet access, but it was much less reliable. F5 BIG-IP is consistent and easy to use--the authentication process happens quickly and reliably via my cell phone's facial recognition feature which is convenient and secure. No need to carry a key fob or enter a verification code. The previous software required email codes be sent and entered to verify access.
