Excellent tool for securing a network

It's easy to use for both novice users and advanced users alike! The support team are always willing to help out with any issues you may have or questions that arise. I love how it allows me to keep my network secure and up-to date without having to go through multiple steps each time i need to update something. There isn't much about barefoot that i dislike but there could be more options available when looking at your security settings. If you're looking for a simple tool then this should…

Pros
  • Easy setup
  • Updates automatically (no additional work required)
  • Comprehensive reporting capabilities, including data usage reports in addition
Cons
  • Some disadvantages

Turns your iDRAC into an HCL management server

- Can be used with bare-metal hypervisor such as KVM or Xen.- Has its own container orchestration tool called "Bareos."- Can manage large networks using VLANs to create subnetworks for different functions/servers. The interface needs some improvement from time to time but it's still usable. It can handle up to about 100Gbps per port if configured properly. You need at least one dedicated physical switch for each layer2 network (VLAN) you have. For example, I had 3x10GE interfaces that needed…

Pros
  • Very easy deployment
  • Ability use containers directly without needing an OS like CentOS
Cons
  • Minor Issues

Flexibility, performance & great customer service

The flexibility that bare-metal networks give you to deploy your network infrastructure with ease! We've been able to use this product at my previous employer for over 3 years without any issues or complaints from our customers/users. I would say it's one of those products where everything just works out well together - hardware wise (bare metal), software wise (F5) and support wise (Barefoot). Nothing really comes up when using F5 wither if there are problems or not. Sometimes we had some…

Pros
  • I like that this product is a bare metal solution that allows you to connect multiple servers to a single network
Cons
  • I don't dislike anything about this product

Excellent Service, Highly Recommended

I like that it's secure without being too complicated or hard to use for my average user (non IT savvy). It can be difficult if you're not familiar with networking but once figured out there are no issues at all! The only downside would probably have something do to wtih your internet speed/bandwidth since they need to stream so much data from their servers back down through our connection lines which isn't always great when we don't get enough bandwidth during peak hours etc.. We've been using

Pros
  • Fast speeds
  • Great customer support team, very responsive via chatbots
  • Easy signup process + good tutorials online help explain things better than i ever could in person alone.
  • Lots more options besides vpn service including free streaming TV channels
Cons
  • Some disadvantages

Great Cloud Computing Service Platform With No Setup Needed

I like that it's very easy to set up with no code required; you can deploy bare-metal or virtualized instances without any additional software needed (other than what comes out oof box). The interface could be more user friendly for non technical users who want something simple but secure from their network/data center infrastructure providers! It works great so far - we are using some custom applications which run over VPN connections via this service provider platform only at my work place…

Pros
  • Works great for our business
Cons
  • It's not very visually appealing
