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 robust software architecture allows for it to be scalable and very stable."
"When you use NGINX, you have more options and power."
"The web proxy and the database proxy are excellent."
"It performs very well. That's one of the primary reasons we use NGINX."
"The load balancing module, which is equivalent to LTM, is the focus of the PSE. So far, the features of both are identical. I believe NGINX has more features for securing these services, but in terms of load balancing, both are massive solutions."
"Nginx is simple to configure, very stable in a highly utilized environment and very modular, allowing DevOps to create it's own modules for interactive use with Nginx."
"The flexibility of its modules allow it to be scalable."
"I found the link load balancer and server load balancer are the most valuable."
"The strength of this solution is the application delivery controller."
"The integrated application protection provided by Alteon is very good. It really helps to avoid false positives in some cases. It provides important granularity to avoid a situation in which security or cybersecurity scenarios escape us."
"The solution has been very stable."
"Security is one of the most valuable features that I like. It is easy to use and easy to configure."
"The product offers high availability."
"I am finding SSL-TLS acceleration the most valuable function, with certificate management. It is easy to generate certificates and assign them to services"
"his solution allows me to secure applications, by blocking suspicious traffic based on the signature that has been enabled for that particular application."
"It would be good if NGINX provided a graphical user interface."
"The biggest room for improvement would be to allow NGINX Core machines to cluster for memory zones in some way with a plug and play module. "
"If NGINX brings some features for health check in the open source version, it would be better. "
"NGINX Plus is moderately priced, but it could give better value for money."
"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."
"Our most challenging part was to run an older PHP website reverse-proxied through NGINX. That was not fun."
"It would be great if there was even more automation to make it even easier to maintain."
"The solution needs to be easier to setup and deploy."
"I would like to see the loading documentation improved."
"The user interface can be improved."
"We are in the process of updating our version of the solution, so judging what should be improved is difficult. But in some cases, the visualization takes a while, especially for mapping issues."
"We don't integrate anything with it because most things don't integrate with Radware. If it were F5, we could integrate it. We can integrate F5 with practically anything that integrates with a load balancer, but that's not the case with Alteon."
"I would like for the load balancing to work with premier and the cloud, a mix of premium and cloud."
"Support is an area that needs improvement."
"Support is very important because if we get good support, we'll be able to sell and supply more numbers."
"I would like the solution to display and help visualize the reference map more easily. I would also like to better understand where queries come from and know which users are consulting the application, along with which app."
