Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The product is lightweight and fast.""Nginx is extremely efficient in terms of the connection rate to the CPU cycles ratio, and in terms of the bandwidth to CPU cycles.""I find the solution’s community support and documentation most valuable. Compared to HAProxy, have found a lot of documentation and community support on Quora. If you would be asking me as a developer whether to choose this product, I would recommend this since it has good community support, documentation, and signature updates. The configuration of HAProxy is also very tedious. However, NGINX’s configuration is very simple.""The robust software architecture allows for it to be scalable and very stable.""This solution has everything.""The most valuable feature of the solution is that it is simple to configure.""-""With NGINX, I appreciate its ability to route traffic geographically."

"It integrates well with other solutions.""The solution is very scalable. It's easy to add processes even if you are new to the solution.""The transaction handling of WebLogic and the way it is designed is excellent.""This is a robust solution.""The most valuable feature of WebLogic is it has excellent performance and stability compared to the previous solution we used.""Robust solution; console and enterprise management tools are really easy to work.""What I've been seeing as the most valuable characteristics of WebLogic Suite include robustness and scalability. It's a really good solution, and I'm not saying this because my company is a partner of WebLogic Suite. I also like that with the newer versions of the solution, you can deploy WebLogic Suite faster. Oracle also provides excellent technical support.""WebLogic Suite is scalable."

Cons
"The user interface could be improved.""The drawback is that you must obtain a license for everything.""I would like the configuration process to be more simplified.""The KPI should be more focused on load balancing and the latency in application calling from the end system.""They should do in the open source version of what they did to Advanced HTTP, TCP, and UDP load balancing.""The scaling should be built into the software rather than configured from an outside source.""Improvement needed in NGINX Plus could focus on optimizing memory usage for users.""NGINX Plus is moderately priced, but it could give better value for money."

More NGINX Plus Cons →

"Support could be better. The expertise when we have some Oracle WebLogic issues and challenges is not there. The issues are not being addressed in time. This really needs to be improved going forward.""I rate the scalability of WebLogic Suite an eight out of ten.""This solution doesn't have connectors to other external applications.""There are sometimes issues with clusters.""Lacking a solution for smaller applications.""The content search is not easy.""I would like to see the licensing policy simplified.""Sometimes there are issues when we work on a VM because people use it to put all of their reports on it at the same time. Then I have to restart and rebuild the machine."
