"Valuable features include authentication, caching, reverse proxy routing, and load balancing."
"The flexibility of its modules allow it to be scalable."
"Supports IMAP, POP and SMTP protocols for the reverse proxy."
"The most valuable features are the gateway and the ability to publish to sites."
"Application Gateway with application-level firewall tool and load distributor and balancer (also serves for A/B testing)."
"The product is resilient."
"We discussed problems with the network products with the Indian teams. The support center for network products is located in India. There are language barriers and issues with the time difference, so we sometimes face restrictions when dealing with this team."
"It would be great if there was even more automation to make it even easier to maintain."
"The scalability could be improved."
"Only improvement needed that I would point to is scalability. With it, I mean clusterized organisation on a low level. At the moment, the best alternative is RHEL HA."
"The user interface could be improved."
"The KPI should be more focused on load balancing and the latency in application calling from the end system."
"There is room for improvement in the pricing model."
"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. "
"I would like to see the Grafana integration in NGINX which is already present in HAProxy. Grafana integration will help the solution visualize all the data analytics on the dashboard which is currently not present."
