HAProxy load balancing
What do you like best about the product?
The granularity of control and the extra features that HAProxy has added to their HAProxy ALOHA offering are fantastic and really augment the base use-case of the HAProxy software as a whole.
There are plenty of information/wizards for initial implementation that really provide a great user experience.
HAProxy support is incredibly quick to respond and overall very helpful and knowledgeable.

What do you dislike about the product?
The web UI could use a bit of an overhaul in terms of features implemented.
A lot of the more granular controls are difficult to implement in the non-text-based part of the web UI. Along with that, the web UI itself is a bit clunky but still very usable and provides a lot of very good information.

Migrating from VMware NSX to HAProxy. HAProxy provides more information and more granularity of control.
Fantastic Value with Best In Class Customer Service
What do you like best about the product?
We've been using HAProxy for around a decade, initially starting with the Community Edition and gradually expanding its footprint. We used industry-standard SLBs from major vendors, but the exorbitant price tags and outrageous support costs were becoming unsustainable. Two years ago, we leaped HAProxy Enterprise Edition (HAPEE) with the Fusion Control Plane (FCP), and it's been a game-changer.
Here's what we love:
Performance: HAPEE's performance is impressive. Even without leveraging hardware acceleration (which they support through Xeon Platinum chips), it easily handles our traffic load.
Stability: Since migrating, we've experienced rock-solid stability. HAPEE has proven to be a reliable workhorse.
Full configurability: HAPEE offers complete control and customization, allowing us to tailor it precisely to our needs.
Fusion Control Plane (FCP): The FCP has revolutionized our workflow, enabling full transactional changes across our clusters. This was a huge pain point with our previous solutions.
Unbeatable Support: This is arguably HAPEE's strongest point. The support team is phenomenal. They're available through Slack, providing near-instantaneous responses and practical solutions. We've dealt with companies charging 10x or 30x more for support that pales in comparison. HAProxy's support team sets a new standard.
Cost-Effectiveness: The pricing for HAPEE is significantly lower than any other comparable solution on the market. It's a breath of fresh air after years of being squeezed by our previous vendors.
Community Edition: We also utilize the HAProxy Community Edition for simpler micro-deployments, and it also excels in that role.
We've moved to HAProxy EE, and the cost/performance/support are so good we are not looking back.

What do you dislike about the product?
Honestly, there's not much to dislike, but the Fusion Control Plane (FCP) has some growing pains. While it does many things exceptionally well, it's still under active development, and occasional kinks need to be ironed out, or some things you would expect haven't been implemented yet.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use it at the edge and in internal clusters along with with keepalive to balance traffic and provide redundancy.
Successful POC with HAProxy Ingress Controller and Fusion. Fantastic team and support.
What do you like best about the product?
We were looking into alternatives to using the Nginx Ingress Controller for one of our products. Their team was super responsive and helpful throughout the entire process. Their technical team was able to resolve all the concerns and questions we had. We ended up not going with the product as we are a lean startup trying to preserve our runway, but we have it in our backpocket if we ever switch. Highly recommend HAProxy to anyone needing their type of service. Their Fusion product has a lot of cool features that can be appealing if needed.
What do you dislike about the product?
No negatives we discovered in our POC. Maybe that we would have to run our own infrastructure. Some startups like to lean towards a fully managed service and be more hands-off.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Their Ingress Controller is something we wanted to POC in case we change our current solution one day. We primarily use it to be able to rewrite the request headers and do geolocation at the Ingress layer.
HA Proxy works well

Performant and efficient, excels at load balancing and SSL termination. It offers granular control over traffic distribution and advanced features like session persistence and health checks.
