"Managing complex infrastructures easily with Azure application gateway"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Azure Application Gateway?

Azure application gateway makes creating and managing complex application architectures very easy. Whether you need load balancing, security, or performance optimisation, Azure Application Gateway can help with almost everything.

Whether you need to put a WAF for security, auto-scaling, load-balancing, routing/redirection or health monitoring, the Azure Application Gateway provides a developer-friendly interface to do all that. The documentation is super easy and valuable.

Using Azure Application Gateway, you can build a scalable and secure web traffic load balancer and application delivery controller. Web traffic is routed through the gateway, providing SSL termination, routing, load balancing, and application-layer (HTTP/HTTPS) traffic management features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Azure Application Gateway?

Firstly, it should be cheaper than other providers. They should consider making it more affordable. Then there are added minor issues that can annoy you. Integrations can increase latency due to different network jumps, protocol limitations can be frustrating sometimes, and vendor lock-in makes it challenging to migrate to other options.

"Smart cargo balancing manager for large-scale communications and digital marketing massive campaigns"
5/5
What do you like best about Azure Application Gateway?

It is a tool that, once configured, allows you to spend something else. Its management balancing and the administration of input/exit resources goes from being a complication to a "Vanity metric" since it will allow you to presume the results of your massive campaigns or communications. Some of its characteristics, such as HTTPS certificates management, significantly improve efficiency since once the nodes are identified, it saves encryption resources Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Azure Application Gateway?

If you are already familiar with Microsoft's Azure ecosystem, you will get the most out of minute one, although configuring all its functionalities requires some attention, like any specialized tool. The learning curve is a bit complex but the continuous references of the application itself are easy for you while you advance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
