For a small company that is just starting up and does not have many web applications running, it is a very good suite for them to implement their WAF in F5 Distributed Cloud WAF, where will help them to reduce the OPEX. However, if a large company does have a lot of websites they will need to reconsider the pricing tier that is charged by F5 Distributed Cloud WAF.
