Cloud networking solutions high above the competition

NetScaler beats F5 Networks for building cloud-ready networks

You can't build a next-generation network with a platform designed to meet the challenges of the past. Citrix NetScaler enables cloud-ready networks by delivering the industry's most comprehensive set of load balancing, application security and acceleration capabilities across the broadest range of platforms. Compare this with F5 Networks, which provides high-quality, capable application delivery controller solutions that meet traditional enterprise requirements—but are less effective in addressing emerging requirements for cloud infrastructures and enterprise cloud networks.
