Find out what your peers are saying about F5, Citrix, HAProxy and others in Application Delivery Controllers (ADC)."One of the most valuable features of this solution is the server load balancing. Something that sets this solution apart from other products is that the hardware has a much higher capacity than other vendors. That's the edge of Array Networks. Their technical support services are also very good."
"Tech support is super-quick to respond, and always on target with answers specific to the current issue."
"The ease of use of the configuration, and great documentation, are the most valuable features for us."
"It has allowed us to evenly distribute the load across a number of servers, and check their health and automatically react to errors."
"We did not need technical support because the documentation is good."
"HAProxy Enterprise Edition has been rock solid. We have essentially had no downtime caused by our load balancers in the last 10 months, because they’ve worked so well. Previously, our load balancers caused us multiple hours per year in downtime."
"It solves a problem for me where I can build files, not based on the health of the check, but rather the speed of the check."
"It is scalable."
"The anti-DDOS PacketShield filtering solution (embedded in the physical appliances) as well as the BGP route injection are great features and heavily used."
"I would like to see more granular reporting and monitoring features, and I believe our clients want to see them as well. Also, SD-WAN would be a good addition."
"The visibility could be improved."
"We need to handle new connections by dropping, or queuing them while the HAProxy restarts, and because HAProxy does not handle split config files."
"HAProxy is very weak in the logging and monitoring part and requires improvement."
"HAProxy could improve by making the dashboards easier to use, and better reports and administration tickets."
"The product does not have any new technologies."
"They should introduce one feature that I know many people, including me, are waiting for: HAProxy should have provide hot-swipe for back-end servers. Also, they need a more detailed GUI for monitoring and configuration."
"There are three main areas to improve: 1) Make remote management more modern by adding API. 2) Propose a general HA solution for HAProxy (no I'm using keepalived for this). 3) Thread option should be a bit more stable."
"Pricing, monitoring, and reports can be improved."
