APM for Exchange OWA and OA

Is there any advantage to using APM to front end authentication for OWA and OA? Versus just load balancing our two exchange servers and letting the client authenticate to exchange directly? I keep running into issues with the kerberos delegation being hit or miss and I'm wondering if the juice is worth the squeeze at this point.

 

This was my previous post for those who had seen it previously.

    Hi, Almost 2 years late but yes my experience I was able to pick up a hacked email account within minutes of turning on APM. Having one central authentication table for every externally accessed resource XenApp/ADFS/Exchange/View with UserID and source IP address provides a looking glass into exactly who is accessing what and from where.
