What do you dislike about the product?
So far I don't see any downside to this technology. I am still enjoying the benefit of this product in our corporate network.
If there are things to be improved as of now, I think it's more on the patch updates. It's not for a negative side but the positive side like continuous patch updates for the lifelong security usage of the customer.

Riverbed - WAN Optimization at its finest
What do you like best about the product?
Riverbed is easy to use and implement. Its fail over is amazing, which is a "pass through" mode if the appliance fails, basically acting just like an ether net cable. It does this even when off.
What do you dislike about the product?
Upgrading firmware versions through the webgui can be difficult. There are multiple errors when you try to download straight from the riverbed support site. I end up just downloading the ISO and uploading it to the riverbed manually. This does take longer, however.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use riverbed to connect remote sites around the world back to our HQ. One of the best benefits we've noticed is that it will keep outlook sessions active even when a user logs off. This means that all the emails that are sent to that recipient are loaded into the mailbox straight away instead of saturating a link as it gets the data from our exchange server from across the world.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
While riverbed is good. There is a chance that they might fall behind with the times as technology advances with the use of private MPLS lines that you can use from other organisations which connect you to their LAN for faster connections around the world.
One click SDN
OK, probably a few clicks, but seriously an extremely well engineered solution. Deployment across 4 global AWS regions took less than 10 minutes and suddenly 4 disparate VPCs are one. Choose the size appliance you need based upon your bandwidth expectations and that's it. On demand and no capital outlay or the hassle of maintaining hardware. Bring on the SDN.
