HAProxy for Full Stack Reliability
What do you like best about the product?
We use HAProxy to load balance and stabilize on premise and cloud, environments, windows, and Kubernetes based applications. We’ve enjoyed the future set of the fusion control plane and all that it has to offer, gaining valuable insights into our application requests, front end, and back in statistics, and usage data.
What do you dislike about the product?
We don’t dislike anything, just hungry for education around haproxy and additional feature training so we can funnily use everything offered.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
HAProxy is our SaaS platforms first load balancer, so the first problem it was solving was a very simple one, load balancing windows web, and application service. However, the longer that we’ve had access to the software, and the more that we’ve learned about it, it has started to become the backbone of our Kubernetes’s infrastructure as well. Service discovery within Kubernetes and HAProxy I’ll still be able to manually interact with the clusters, has been crucial at balancing latency and reliability based connections into our API’s that are contained.
HAProxy for Strict Latency Requirement
What do you like best about the product?
HAProxy has really enabled Liftoff to simplify, scale, and secure our entire infrastructure. It’s helped us streamline our operations, handle growth with confidence, and ensure that our platform stays reliable and protected—all while giving us the flexibility to keep evolving for the future.
What do you dislike about the product?
HAProxy’s configuration can be complex for beginners, and making changes often requires a full reload rather than seamless, dynamic updates. Additionally, its built-in monitoring and SSL certificate management are less user-friendly compared to some modern alternatives.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
HAProxy solves the problem of efficiently distributing incoming network traffic across multiple servers, ensuring high availability, reliability, and scalability for web applications. This benefits users by minimizing downtime, improving application performance, and allowing seamless scaling as demand grows.
HAProxy ease of setup
What do you like best about the product?
Documentation allows for simple setup to complete personalization.
What do you dislike about the product?
Images for quicker deployment, however this was resolved.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Allowing connections for load balanced servers. Improving security.

Rock-Solid Enterprise Load Balancer
What do you like best about the product?
We’ve been using HAProxy Enterprise extensively as part of our internal traffic management strategy across Kubernetes clusters and VM-based legacy applications. From a reliability and performance standpoint, it’s quick
What stands out for power users is the sheer level of control and tunability it offers—fine-grained rate limiting, traffic shaping, TCP/HTTP inspection, advance hydration and advanced ACL handling are great features

fast and flexible
What do you like best about the product?
It's fast, and has a lot of power and flexibility.
What do you dislike about the product?
The configuration language is bespoke and has a relatively high learning curve.
Currently no good options if you need FIPS compatible TLS at scale with good performance on an LTS release (although that isn't entirely haproxy's fault).

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Load balancing, routing to the correct service (currently with hub and spoke model), for redirecting and rewriting requests before directing yo backend services, for ensuring security related headers are added to all responses, also used in some cases to protect sensitive endpoints.
