Proxy server with cache storage.
What do you like best about the product?
I like this system because of the ease of use in Windows and Linux, I configure everything from a text file, modify all the instructions and voila, I already have a proxy server installed.
I say the use capacity I need and the IP address with the network workgroup.
In the text file in the configuration you have all possible instructions on the server.
The service starts at system startup.
It is open source and free for everyone.

What do you dislike about the product?
I don't like it because it has no graphical interface for the configuration of the services, everything has to be done by instructions in the text file and getting an error is difficult with many instruction lines.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use this service to save all the cache of my web browsing, from a server I connect all the networks of my PC in local network to my server to save the bandwidth by simply placing the IP address and port of my server.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Install this service on your PC to speed up Internet access, all browser cache is saved on your PC and mount the page immediately with a single click.

Proxy and cache manager, squid is waiting for you
What do you like best about the product?
It serves as cache server so concurrent connections to web´s sites will be much faster to the perception of users, because having stored the data that do not change on the web, the proxy does not consult these elements again and delivers to the user what is stored on your hard drive so decreases your consumption of bandwidth to the Internet. Also if what you need is to see which are the sites in which your users browse, you can generate reports and see data such as who downloaded more information, the most visited pages, among others.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes it has errors in sites, for example if there is a page where my users need to connect to download a file with personal information, when a second user tries to connect to this site and download a file with similar structure, but with their data, this sometimes brings the information of the first user, becoming a real nuisance to users and service administrators.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
To have a structure that allows me to manage Internet resources and how they are used by users, to generate reports of what each user is consuming and see how they can impact the business, both positively and negatively. Apart from that with the cache we optimize the use of the Internet, by considerably reducing the requests made to a server, each time a user tries to access a portal.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The pages of financial institutions generally do not allow access when they detect that the connection comes from a proxy, so it is best to bypass the requests that come or go to the websites of financial institutions.
Reduce bandwidth with Squid-Cache
What do you like best about the product?
The advantages are caching frequently-requested pages to speed up web page load times and also reducing bandwidth by not having to re-request the same page over and over again. It can also be used as a reverse proxy to accelerate web servers by serving up cached content rather than permitting continuous hits to the web server for identical content to multiple clients.
What do you dislike about the product?
The application can require a bit of technical knowledge to setup and configure. It requires someone with knowledge with Linux.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is an easy way to save on bandwidth, as well as provides an easy way to force authentication to be required in order to obtain outbound access to traffic
Best Proxy Server Ever
What do you like best about the product?
Squid allows you to maximize your efficiency in using Internet bandwidth by creating a very flexible configuration of multiple servers and peers that can cache Internet content. It allows for both forward and reverse proxying and also supports multiple authentication mechanisms. Squid also features status pages and log files that make evaluating the effectiveness of the product quite straight-forward.
What do you dislike about the product?
Configuration can be a bit daunting, and the configuration file is *long.* The flexibility comes with a price of complexity and time to configure. Debugging the configuration can also be challenging - it can take quite a while to work through the lengthy list of options to figure out what's causing issues and get the right options configured.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Limited Internet bandwidth and faster response times. Also used it for reverse proxying servers, which can take load off of Web Servers by providing quick access to frequently-accessed static content.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Be ready to spend some time getting it configured and tweaking options. Also, it is most efficiently used with static content - dynamic content will result in plenty of cache misses.
