F5 Migration Case Study
University of Pablo de Olavide From F5 to SKUDONET for Agile Support and Lower Costs







THE CHALLENGE
Facing Hardware Renewal, Rising Costs, and Support Limitations
The University of Pablo de Olavide relied on F5 to manage load balancing and traffic security. While technologically strong, the solution introduced challenges in their operational model.
Even the smallest available model exceeded their actual needs, leading to higher infrastructure costs than necessary. In addition, its complexity required a high level of specialization, making changes slower and reducing overall team efficiency.
The university needed a solution that could maintain performance and security while offering a more efficient, cost-effective, and manageable approach.
THE SOLUTION
SKUDONET for Agile Support and Low-Risk Migration
During the evaluation process, SKUDONET stood out for the responsiveness and technical expertise demonstrated by its team. From the first interactions, the university experienced a practical approach focused on minimizing migration risk.
SKUDONET delivered the same level of performance and security they expected, but with a platform that was easier to manage and did not require unnecessary operational specialization.
In addition, the acquisition cost and long-term support renewal were significantly lower than the previous solution.

“SKUDONET provides us with the perfect balance between security, performance, and simplicity, along with exceptional technical support.”
