It lacks the versatility and capabilities of Big IP Virtual Edition. It requires some effort to set up and a learning curve, with the IT personnel or support, from F5 the implementation process becomes hectic.

Managing the softwares Marketplace service is burdensome. There are some concerns regarding server to server communication limitations and heavy reliance on LBs that potentially impact efficiency through cascading flows.

The UI of the F5 is the best and its modules,it has many many modules under it, like caching, and access control. firewall and security manager, compare to the Netscaler this is little expensive

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
F5 is more of application routing tool, where it helps in routing the incoming traffic in a round-robin mechanism, and helps to diversify the load of the traffic to multiple servers effectively.
