Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The most valuable features of Microsoft Azure Application Gateway are the policies, the data store they are using, and the cloud platform it operates on.""The product's initial setup phase was easy.""Good customization; able to report and take action on alerts.""It is a scalable solution...The installation phase of Microsoft Azure Application Gateway is very easy.""The most valuable feature of the solution is the web application firewall (WAF).""I like the tool's stability and performance.""The tool helps manage microservices by providing developers with a platform to conduct tests and assessments on the web application. The custom domain option is one of the most valuable features I've found. This feature is incredibly helpful for the end-users of the web application. With the custom domain feature, you can change the lengthy link to a shorter, more memorable one. For example, instead of using a lengthy default link, you can customize it to something like imail.com, which is much easier to remember and share.""The production is a valuable feature."

And when there are changes to the load balancing, it affects the end-user.""The product's performance should be better.""Needs easier integration with the existing SIAM.""It could be easier to change servicing.""The pricing of the solution is a bit high. The solution should offer different pricing systems.""Microsoft Azure Application Gateway is harder to manage than Imperva.
