What do you like best about the product?
Nginx is very easy to use, Nginx is very easy to configure and you config a very complex setup in just a few hours.

Nothing really, but if I have to, my main comment would be it is much harder to compile nginx from scratch compared to Apache specially on custom OSs.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Serving web applications, I can configure very complicated setup by just a few commands. Also it is very issue to add support for ssl.

The reverse proxy product that does everything you need

  • December 17, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The best feature of nginx is its reliability and simplicity. It's very easy to start - when it start it installs the default "pure html" website. It's compatible with all web-add-on on the market. And its free version is capable to provide all that developer needs. It forces developer to use best practices and do not leave major vulnerabilities.

Nginx is free and it was my choice to host all our websites. It has a huge popularity, so any question on Stack Overflow is answered immediately.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's documentation is not logically structured and contains "long sentences that does have much sense". It's probably was automatically translated from Russian language.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Website hosting, the major advantage that it has anything the major web-developer needs, generate logs that can be analyzed by almost all log-analytical system.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Just try to use nginx especially with nodejs or simple html websites. Use letsencrypt to automatically generate SSL certificate

Best Web Server i have used

  • November 13, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
One main advantage of Nginx over a web server like Apache is that Nginx does not set up a new process for each web request but rather the default configuration is to have one worker process per CPU. Nginx can also be used in various of scenarios like:

It can act as a reverse proxy server for TCP, UDP, HTTP, HTTPS, SMTP, POP3, and IMAP protocols
It can act as a load balancer and an HTTP cache
It is very lightweight hence requires fewer resources / memory
Able to handle 10k+ simultaneous connections with a low memory footprint
What do you dislike about the product?
Less community support and documentation than other web servers like Apache, but probably more than enough depending on your expertise and use case. Not as many modules / extensions as Apache. Could be difficult to understand how to configure initially, but once you get the hang of it its pretty simple to use.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We run multiple websites using nginx. Including websites serving static contents like Angular and also dyanmic content like Ruby on Rails Projects. The benifits i have realised are monetory as nginx can be used on small configurations like 1gb ram and 1 cpu on VM's on azure/aws and works flawlessly for websites built using angular which are very common these days
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Go for it. Its a very lightwieght web server with miniminum needs for resources. Very usefull for deploying websites for small companies/startups on a small VM on aws/azure works even with 1 cpu and 1 gb ram

What do you like best about the product?
The configuration is really easy without removing any advanced options and it has a huge community backing it up
What do you dislike about the product?
I dont really find any disadvantage big enough to highlight it
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Mainly I use Nginx as a reverse proxy and load balancer and web server in some instances, in most cases is faster than similar software and faster to implement

Lo uso da anni per gestire un sito web di e-commerce e mai un blocco o un crash

  • February 05, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Di nginx apprezzo il fatto che sia un web-server stabile e potente, pensato per gestire con la minima manutenzione necessaria e con risorse veramente minime grossi carico di lavoro di richieste sia HTTP che HTTPS, quando si gestisce un sito di e-commerce in PHP con un CMS magari obsoleto o non recente è fondamentale avere alla base un'infrastruttura in grado di reggere le richieste complesse e gestire un maggior numero di processi PHP senza rallentare o bloccare l'esperienza utente.
What do you dislike about the product?
Configurare nginx non è facile, serve avere molta pazienza e buone conoscenze sia di networking che dell'ambiente Linux per poter operare correttamente sui file di configurazione, certificati e permessi e poter eseguire il tuning dei parametri della componentistica software e di tutto ciò che deve gestire le richieste verso il process manager di vostra scelta (se configurato come web-proxy)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Eseguire l'hosting in scenari cluster e alta affidabilità di una web-app obsoleta o datata non è un'operazione semplice da eseguire con i provider web e hosting web attuali, grazie ad nginx ho potuto configurare da solo il mio cluster di hosting acquistando le sole VPS con installato il sistema operativo senza dover passare da pannelli di gestione come cPanel o phpmyadmin.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Internet è pieno di how-to e pagine faq che possono guidare un utente nella configurazione iniziale di nginx e delle sue dipendenze sia su Linux che su Windows.

Proxy and SSL completion

  • November 28, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
NGINX is capable of using various features and functionalities to reduce page loading time drastically. It happens as local file structures are distributed through databases for some programs. It provides a small storage footprint, high efficiency, easy maintenance, and it is scalable, configurable and versatile. I was able to install NGINX directly without the bottleneck. We can also build entirely different nodes from the NGINX variants of the same platform. Also, it includes many choices available for the deduplication mechanism that can be configured in almost any way possible.
What do you dislike about the product?
NGINX monitoring has a less comprehensive list of components than other similar tools, like Apache. It also has low support of the community. I wish NGINX could offer better controls that can track the logs in an ideal manner, as it will allow the system administrator to use it in a more versatile way rather than using Unix commands to pick specific things.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are very much using NGINX as our main proxy and SSL completion. It is used for storage purposes and for loading the inventory of the clustered programs as well as for maintaining the network alive in the case of node outage or malfunction of the database server.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
NGINX is best used for any database server as the front end VPN. Since NGINX isn't as backed as some solutions, there can be no support and manual layout for integrating with some operating systems.

L'unica alternativa software quasi totalmente free a bilanciatori di carico hardware

  • November 26, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Si tratta di web server con funzionalità di bilanciamento del carico con cache di contenuti, la persistenza della sessione, la configurazione tramite API ecc È possibile ottenere le cose con Nginx, più che altrimenti ha bisogno di bilanciamento del carico hardware. Migliora le prestazioni dinamiche dei contenuti con il microcaching. E 'in grado di gestire enormi clienti con meno memoria e la velocità accolti ed efficienza rispetto ad altri server web.
What do you dislike about the product?
Non possiede funzioni o wizard per poter creare moduli con semplicità, non esistono template di partenza e la documentazione ufficiale della versione non-plus lascia un po' a desiderare essendo parecchio datata.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Questo server web è automatizzato in cui le attività più comuni sono curati da Nginx costruito in API. Esso utilizza proxy inverso per gestire diversi protocolli come HTTP, memcached, PHP-FPM, SCGI. Persistenza della sessione, cache dei contenuti sono utili funzionalità disponibili con questo software.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Per quanto sia un bello strumento quando si ha bisogno di server web più altre caratteristiche come cache di contenuti, la persistenza della sessione, Reverse Proxy protocolli multipli, la gestione di grandi no. dei clienti contemporaneamente.
