Find out in this report how the two Application Delivery Controllers (ADC) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The price is very good, and it's not very expensive."
"Barracuda's technical support is good - whenever we have an issue, they immediately connect and resolve it."
"I can't speak to all of the HAProxy features because we don't use them all, but load balancing is very good."
"Software defined load balancing allows us to dynamically adjust and codify routing decisions. This speeds up development."
"I estimate that this product has saved our company hundreds, if not thousands, of dollars in possible downtime from previous load balancers. We make a lot of our money from online sales, so it is critical to have 99.9% uptime."
"HAProxy's TCP load balancer is excellent and super stable."
"It reduced the load on our main load balancers."
"It is scalable."
"Performance configuration options with threads, processes, and core stickiness are very valuable."
"We use it as a load balancer for our application servers."
"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."
"HAProxy is very weak in the logging and monitoring part and requires improvement."
"They should introduce one feature that I know many people, including me, are waiting for: HAProxy should have provide hot-swipe for back-end servers. Also, they need a more detailed GUI for monitoring and configuration."
"Maybe HAProxy could be more modular."
"The product does not have any new technologies."
"HAProxy could improve by making the dashboards easier to use, and better reports and administration tickets."
"I would like to see better search handling, and a user interface, with a complete functional graphical unit"
"I would like to evaluate load-balancing algorithms other than round robin and SSL offloading. Also, it would be helpful if I could logically divide the HAProxy load-balancing into multiple entities so that I would install one HA Proxy LB application which could be used for different Web servers for different applications. I am not sure if these features are available."
"It needs proper HTTP/2 support."
