Find out what your peers are saying about F5, Citrix, HAProxy and others in Application Delivery Controllers (ADC)."Azure Application Gateway's most valuable feature is ease of use. The configuration is straightforward. It isn't difficult to adjust the size of your instances in the settings. You can do that with a few clicks, and the configuration file is the same way. You can also set rules and policies with minimal time and effort."
"The simplicity of the solution and its ability to integrate easily with others are its most valuable aspects."
"The health probe is pretty good for your backend health. It tells you whether it's communicating and talking to the endpoint correctly. It is quite useful."
"We chose this solution in the first place because it has access to Layer 7. I can control the requests and the content, which I can access on my network if I want to even if it's forbidden access to other external resources. If I want to monitor, for example, traffic, and apply this rule on Layer 7, I can do so. This was our main goal when implementing this application. We wanted to take advantage of the Gateway capabilities."
"I find Application Gateway’s WAF module valuable because it helps prevent layer 7 attacks."
"The security feature in all the layers of the application is the most valuable."
"The solution has built-in rules that reduce alerts and are easy to configure."
"The solution provides great automation and it is easy to upgrade service."
"We use the solution for Zero-day protection."
"Microsoft Azure Application Gateway's first deployment is complex. It needs to improve its pricing."
"The product could be easier to use and implement."
"The solution has many limitations. You cannot upgrade the VPN to the application gateway. So I started with version one, which has limited capabilities, and they provided version two. And unfortunately, I cannot upgrade from v one to v two like other services. So I have to decommission the version one and create a new one with version two. Also the version one was complex with the certificates uploading the SQL certificates."
"Scalability can be an issue."
"Microsoft Azure Application Gateway could improve by allowing features to use more third-party tools."
"In the next release, the solution could improve the integration with Service Mesh and other Azure Security Services."
"The monitoring on the solution could be better."
"The tool's pricing could be improved."
"The tool's dashboard needs to load since it is not responsive and takes time to load."
