Find out what your peers are saying about F5, Citrix, HAProxy and others in Application Delivery Controllers (ADC)."It has very good features. It is very configurable. Security with TLS, et cetera is also very easy."
"It is a very scalable solution in which you can add more servers instantly."
"The most valuable feature of Amazon Elastic Load Balancing is scaling."
"Security and monitoring for high-performance applications are some of the top features."
"The solution offers good load balancing."
"Amazon Elastic Load Balancing transfers the data securely from servers to users and splits the traffic based on peak times."
"The feature that I like the most is the scalability. The solutions I build often have many pieces, which are very complicated. If a client comes to me with a design, my developer has made this as a template or a cloud formation script. It's a design on paper, and I want it executed a certain way. I can do that quickly and repeatedly with AWS. That is a considerable advantage because I can take that template and do it five times in different zones. That is an excellent feature based on a template, et cetera."
"It is straightforward to deploy."
"The most valuable aspect of this solution is that it is simple to deploy. The deployment took us ten minutes."
"The product's stability is an area with a slight shortcoming, which can be improved."
"The reporting could be simplified so that the client sees a report of what they cached at the end of the month and the number of hits. It should have metrics above and beyond their Google analytics, etc. You can't do that with the solutions from AWS. You have to build sophisticated cloud trails, reports, dashboards, etc. The setup is significant, and it's hard to manage. You'll need to hire someone or pay a consultant on a regular basis to manage it, and it's not for the faint of heart."
"The machines created by Amazon Elastic Load Balancing have different IP addresses, which we are not able to whitelist or predict."
"We faced some issues with the health check."
"One issue that we faced with ALB was that leaf-level certificate validation was not happening. It is not that user-friendly in that aspect."
"They should improve the solution's pricing."
"The solution needs to guarantee stability because multiple loads behind a load balancer can cause service unavailability."
"It would be good if we had a product that integrates well with third-party vendors. Some of our customers want a multi-cloud solution. They don't want to be tied up to or be in just one cloud."
"In terms of what needs improvement, the price could be lowered. We've tried to deploy more of them but our purchasing department has said that they're way too expensive and they would prefer to use something else."
