Citrix Gateway Reviews

• Netscaler Gateway
• Netscaler AAA
• Netscaler Content Switching/Load Balancing
• Central Application Delivery Controller with a huge feature set based on the latest requirements

We implement these solutions at many customer sites. This directly affects the productivity and gives the customer a very flexible solution.

The customers have the possibility to provide access to their applications and data, but the data itself won’t leave their data centers.

I can't think of anything at the moment.

We have been using NetScaler for five years.

We sometimes had issues after updates.

I would give technical support a rating of 10 out of 10.

We did not use a previous solution.

You need a very good concept and you have to do the conceptual work before you start implementing. Depending on the concept, the setup could be straightforward.

You have to do some hard work in order to get the suitable licenses.

We looked at VMware View in some projects.

All Citrix products are very flexible and give you a huge amount of possibilities. From a consulting perspective, I recommend allocating enough take time for project planning.

We primarily use the solution for load balancing.

The unified gateway and the active gateway, particularly used for desktop load balancing for web servers are the most valuable.

The solution easily integrates with other solutions.

The solution can be a bit pricey.

The stability of the solution is perfect.

Technical support is okay.

The initial installation is very easy.

We use public and private cloud deployment models.

For the use cases we have, the solution is perfect.

It's a very mature product, it is working very nicely and it's very well established. I would rate the solution ten out of ten.

We implement this solution for our customers.

Most of our customers are using the load balancing feature and the verification feature is good as well, in my experience.

The two-factor authentication solution needs improvement. It needs a multi-factor authentification.

Training videos would be helpful, and they're transitioning to a new portal, as far as I know. So the portal maybe has now improvements and they will provide for a larger community for the users and retailers. This will provide a more improved solution.

A forward proxy in the next release would be good, I think. If the solution had a more advanced DNS, it would be an improvement.

Stability is fine, depending on what features you are using.

Scalability is not good because they didn't change the solution. If you want to scale the product you have to install more and more appliances, and their solution technology is not good against the competition. We have less than ten thousand users.

The technical support is fine. It's not the best, but fine.

We are a reseller company, so we resell to our customers the product and we integrate it with other solutions.

Most of the product is good, but we prefer F5's networks against Citrix.

I would rate this solution as six out of ten.

We use the solution for the control of application delivery.

All of the features are quite valuable, including the node balancing and gateway.

The VPN needs to be improved. In comparison to Cisco, the solution doesn't have as many features.

Technical support needs improvement.

The solution is very stable. If I were to rate it out of ten, I would give stability a nine.

Scalability is okay. Out of ten, I would rate it at seven.

Technical support is not good. I would rate them five out of ten.

The initial setup is very complex.

You need the assistance of a consultant to implement the solution properly.

We are using the on-premises deployment model.

If you compare the solution to Fortinet, Citrix Unified Gateway is good. If you compare the solution to Cisco, no, it's not so good.

I would rate the solution eight out of ten.
