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."
"Supports IMAP, POP and SMTP protocols for the reverse proxy."
"NGINX Plus also has NGINX App Protect. It's a separate module, which is inspired by the F5 apps."
"The best solution, by far, for web traffic control for things in production and just around the house."
"NGINX Plus' most valuable feature is the ingress controller."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is that it is simple to configure."
"When I worked in a security research center, we tested NGINX to support DoS and DDoS attacks, and its results were great."
"Its most valuable features are load balancing and application delivery. This is the most efficient application for these features because of stability and its efficiency."
"Using NGINX Plus for web traffic distribution is fantastic. It offers performance similar to physical load balancers but with added flexibility."
"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."
"The scaling should be built into the software rather than configured from an outside source."
"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."
"The KPI should be more focused on load balancing and the latency in application calling from the end system."
"The solution needs to be easier to setup and deploy."
"The scalability could be improved."
"Make modules easier to enable or disable. The beauty and ugly side of the NGINX modules is you have to know how to compile the module. For beginners or non-very technical aspirant(s) going for NGINX, they have to learn how to compile the modules."
"The user interface could be improved."
"It would be great if there was even more automation to make it even easier to maintain."
