Great product, great support, great team
What do you like best about the product?
I like our support contract with HAProxy - high touch, there when we need them, and super responsive account exec! We have a dedicated slack connect channel, which is super useful.
What do you dislike about the product?
Very few downsides. If forced to pick something, it could be that the configuration files aren't inherently intuitive and require a thorough reading of the documentation. But that would be true of any technical product.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have it in front of an internal application that requires high availability. Using HAProxy guarantees automatic failover to the replica in case of an issue with the primary.
Amazing Support
What do you like best about the product?
Their support is online and very responsive. They have responded quickly to questions that kept me from being stuck on an issue.
What do you dislike about the product?
HAproxy does what it is supposed to do and does it well. The only dislike that I can think of is not their fault but mine, not having enough time to learn.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use it to balance requests to application servers. It makes the process transparent.
HAProxy for reliability and scale
What do you like best about the product?
I've used HAProxy in it's Community and Enterprise versions with excellent success over the prior 8 years. The reliability and configurability cannot be beaten.
What do you dislike about the product?
With no GUI by default, it can require some effort for a Jr level engineer to become familiar with all the beautiful things that HAProxy can provide. This should not steer you away from HAProxy as it is not a challenging hill to climb, but it is a difference you will find between HAProxy and a much more expensive appliance-based load balancer.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
HAProxy allowed us to scale our inbound L4 and L7 traffic beyond the capabilities of our incumbent load-balancing systems at a fraction of the cost. We found after the deployment that we had better stability and had an easier time generating metrics to determine how the system was doing compared to our former appliance-based load balancers.
