"The price is very good, and it's not very expensive."
"Failover is seamless and our services are rock solid."
"I like that this is a Network Load Balancer that can be used practically with any application in the backend. They have how-to guides on how to set up Kemp NLB with Exchange, but you can use it as well for Sharepoint, RDS, or any other back end server."
"It has been functional. We don't have any outages."

"Load-balancing is a great feature that is very easy to configure and it is always working fine."
"The quality of the solution's performance could be improved."
"Load Balancer ADC is competitively priced, but it's not feature-rich, and its technology is not that advanced."

"SNMP and/or RESTCONF management, in order to collect many counters, for plotting in a central application need to be improved."
"I definitely think that the WAF can be improved."
"I would like to see more automation and control of overactive and inactive resources. If I could schedule these around our updates then it would be all automated. I would like to set up an automated script to coincide with the scripts I use to update resources and servers."
"Over the last several major versions, the GUI has remained virtually unchanged and still seems lacking."
"To make it a perfect ten out of ten it would need better connection logging. If there is an active connection, that there is better logging. It should also have better management monitoring tools."
"In the next release, Kemp should include the ability for LoadMaster to create different DNS record types."
"If you want logging for SMTP traffic, you have to enable ESP, which requires you to define allowed IP addresses. That’s irritating, to say the least."
