Displays flexible, user-friendly interface with minor licensing challenges
The product could be improved with a more intuitive interface for complex configurations and more advanced analytics. Additionally, enhanced security features, like a more robust Web Application Firewall, and stronger APIs for better automation would be beneficial. Overall, the main areas for improvement are in strengthening the advanced features to better meet the demands of large-scale enterprise environments. key features for the next release should focus on three areas. First, an enhanced, next-generation security suite with a more powerful Web Application Firewall (WAF) and integrated bot protection. Second, more advanced and customizable analytics dashboards to provide deeper insights into application performance. Finally, greater support for modern, cloud-native environments, including better APIs for automation and seamless hybrid-cloud traffic management

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"It has helped improve load speed on the site."
"The control panel is nicely laid out and I do not have to hunt for functionality."
"​Purge pages: It is a fast solution for updating my content from all datacenters."
"I selected CDN77 because it has servers where our different target markets are (some are in Asia)."
"It has improved our organization by providing quick access to resources."
"It is extremely easy to set up and integrate with WordPress and purge files as needed through the control panel."
"The solution is easy to configure when changing the load balancing method to Round Robin or least connection."
"Exchange load balancing and reverse proxy for Skype for Business are key features."
"There is a simplicity to the setup and configuration."
"The most valuable feature that I found is the load balancing feature, it is the core function of the product."
"Persistence is very valuable. This holds the connection information of the source and that connection is important to RDP and our APO calls. The connection has to be persisted to the original source to operate properly. We also use the subsections for sub-services to create services inside our services for our API resources, this is most awesome. We would not be able to do this without Kemp and offer this type of sub-service to route based on an API instance. It routes the traffic properly based on the sub-service type."
"We are most impressed with the ease of use and great support."
"When the templates are used, there is not much left to configure and they just work!"
"The security features are the most valuable features of this solution."
 

Cons

"If you are a low-use user and not used the minimum credit, it will be lost at end of year unless you upgrade, then you are left with more bandwidth than you can ever use."
"A year ago, I had to deal with SEO factors involving duplication of content."
"If I had to change something it would maybe be to have a little better reporting graphics that show more details in the reporting. It seems to be a little small in the graphic, and I'm not sure if possible but maybe a GUI page that one can use to monitor if any server goes down."
"To make it a perfect ten out of ten it would need better connection logging. If there is an active connection, that there is better logging. It should also have better management monitoring tools."
"I really don't like the way the logs are presented in the software."
"I would like to see more automation and control of overactive and inactive resources. If I could schedule these around our updates then it would be all automated. I would like to set up an automated script to coincide with the scripts I use to update resources and servers."
"In the next release, Kemp should include the ability for LoadMaster to create different DNS record types."
"Over the last several major versions, the GUI has remained virtually unchanged and still seems lacking."
"They need to improve the UI environment. Currently, it's hard to navigate and use product."
"I want to have the ability to pull a particular server. The DevOps portion was challenging for me, like if I needed to redirect from one IP to another URL. I needed to look that up, and the knowledge base is not well organized. When I look for information about Kemp on the Internet, I don't find many articles or something like that."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"For low-use users, it can be more expensive than it seems. It would be a disadvantage for a lot of hobby users."
"I would suggest low usage cases that there are other options available, such as WordPress's own CDN."
"Regarding the pricing, it is expensive. It may not suit others. I suggest a lower recharge level and also to remove the credit expiry time​."
"The setup cost and pricing plan is reasonable and will ultimately give you a worthy return."
"Less expensive than Citrix."
"Setup is easy, the cost is affordable, and the licensing is quick and simple."
"Any decent product will cost money and if you want great support and a great product, then you will want to spend the money on it."
"Currently, no cost is involved with a virtual load balancer. They have used open source. We did not pay for software. We paid for the expertise. We are only paying the consulting charges, which are very reasonable, that is, around a thousand dollars."
"The license varies according to the number of megabits."
"The Kemp LoadMaster is a tremendous value."
"It is well-priced and licensing is very flexible."
