Does anyone have experience and comments on either CAI Networks WebMux or Array Networks TMX lines?
I'm evaluating about a dozen Load Balancers / Application Delivery vendors and I'm under a budget. Trying to stay under 15K for 2 units. Products like BigIP's line is out of our price range. I've narrowed it down to a few of them. It seems that CAI Networks WebMux line gives you a huge bang for the buck - HTTP Compression, Multiplexing (I'm pretty sure), etc, even in their smallest model. Array Networks gear (looking at the TMX line) seems to provide an ok feature set for the money as well (although more than WebMux). I'm also getting quotes from RadWare but I expect them to be a bit more.
Does anyone have any experience and advice they could pass along regarding these companies and product lines? Any experience with their tech support, updates, performance?

Our clients' budgets for the most part can't justify the cost of f5 BigIP products or even Radware's low end so we are sticking with more mid-range gear.
I appreciate the response and I'll dig a bit more into latency.
