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."
"HAProxy's TCP load balancer is excellent and super stable."
"Performance configuration options with threads, processes, and core stickiness are very valuable."
"The ease of use of the configuration, and great documentation, are the most valuable features for us."
"We did not need technical support because the documentation is good."
"I have found HAProxy very helpful in replicating production environment architecture in a development and testing environment."
"I can simplify configurations of many internal services (e.g. Web server configs) by moving some elements (like SSL) to HAProxy. I can also disable additional applications, like Varnish, by moving traffic shaping configurations to HAProxy."
"It is scalable."
"The most important features would be the load-balancing of HTTP and TCP requests, according to multiple LB-algorithms (busyness, weighted-busyness, round robin, traffic, etc). Another important feature that we cannot live without is the username/passwd authentication for legacy systems that had none."
"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."
"We've changed solutions as it doesn't fit with our current needs."
"HAProxy could improve by making the dashboards easier to use, and better reports and administration tickets."
"The product does not have any new technologies."
"There is room for improvement in the pricing model. It could be cheaper."
"Maybe HAProxy could be more modular."
"The GUI should be more responsive and show the detailed output of logs."
"Dynamic update API. More things should be possible to be configured during runtime."
"HAProxy is very weak in the logging and monitoring part and requires improvement."
