Overall Satisfaction with F5 BIG-IP Access Policy Manager (APM)

We use F5 BIG-IP APM to secure our applications. We also use to implement two-factor authentication for our VPN and allow RDP/SSH access to our users. It is the one-stop portal for all our users who are outside the university. We also deploy app tunnels and any specific user IP port access.

  • Remote Access to the local computer.
  • Application Security.
  • Authentication.
  • Two Factor Authentication Implementation.

Cons

  • UI/UX can be quick and modern.
  • The application hosting is not one-click.
  • You cannot observer the changes done for external users internally.
  • VPN Portal.
  • Application Tunnels.
  • Remote Desktop.
  • Protecting simple web applications behind the VPN Portal.
  • Authentication the users using AD and a 2FA for better security.
  • Easy Remote Desktop access to the user's local computer.
