Find out in this report how the two Application Infrastructure solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Application Gateway with application-level firewall tool and load distributor and balancer (also serves for A/B testing)."
"I find the solution’s community support and documentation most valuable. Compared to HAProxy, have found a lot of documentation and community support on Quora. If you would be asking me as a developer whether to choose this product, I would recommend this since it has good community support, documentation, and signature updates. The configuration of HAProxy is also very tedious. However, NGINX’s configuration is very simple."
"It performs very well. That's one of the primary reasons we use NGINX."
"Its most valuable features are load balancing and application delivery. This is the most efficient application for these features because of stability and its efficiency."
"The most valuable features are the gateway and the ability to publish to sites."
"Its versatility and capabilities make it invaluable for implementing patches and fixes when necessary."

"NGINX works much better than HAProxy in our current hardware and architecture for HTTP/HTTPS load balancing. "
"The solution is very scalable. It's easy to add processes even if you are new to the solution."
"What I've been seeing as the most valuable characteristics of WebLogic Suite include robustness and scalability. It's a really good solution, and I'm not saying this because my company is a partner of WebLogic Suite. I also like that with the newer versions of the solution, you can deploy WebLogic Suite faster. Oracle also provides excellent technical support."
"Robust solution; console and enterprise management tools are really easy to work."
"The feature that I have found to be the most valuable is the ease of deployment."
"Scalability on the solution is great. It's very very easy to scale."
"The most valuable feature is that it provides one place where you can control all of the services."
"The most valuable feature of WebLogic is it has excellent performance and stability compared to the previous solution we used."
"The transaction handling of WebLogic and the way it is designed is excellent."
"I would like the configuration process to be more simplified."
"The biggest room for improvement would be to allow NGINX Core machines to cluster for memory zones in some way with a plug and play module. "
"Our most challenging part was to run an older PHP website reverse-proxied through NGINX. That was not fun."
"The drawback is that you must obtain a license for everything."
"Lack of a feature to print data on the terminal for verification of network traffic during debugging and testing."
"I would suggest adding GUI-based configuration panels to NGINX Plus to simplify setup and management tasks."
"NGINX Plus is moderately priced, but it could give better value for money."
"NGINX is a very basic load balancer and cannot do as many customizations as F5."
"I think the support could be much better."
"This solution would benefit from the inclusion of a ripple start function for clusters."
"This solution doesn't have connectors to other external applications."
"There are sometimes issues with clusters."
"The content search is not easy."
"Sometimes there are issues when we work on a VM because people use it to put all of their reports on it at the same time. Then I have to restart and rebuild the machine."
"Support could be better. The expertise when we have some Oracle WebLogic issues and challenges is not there. The issues are not being addressed in time. This really needs to be improved going forward."
"The support is not good."
