"F5 NGINX Plus - Modern Application Platform!"
4.5/5
What do you like best about F5 NGINX Plus?

F5 NGINX Plus is one of the best API monitoring and security enhancing platforms that simplifies the process of modernizing legacy, monolithic applications as well as delivering agile, micro-services applications to enterprises undergoing digital transformation. With API Gateway and load balancer features, this is a robust cloud-native load balancer ingress solution that is super resilient, scalable, and dynamic. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about F5 NGINX Plus?

There's not a lot to dislike about NGINX except the platform latency, slow support service, and a bit difficult to understand UI. Apart from this, the tool is great and really profitable for businesses seeking quick API deployments! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Best reverse proxy, load balancer, API gateway 2023"
4.5/5
What do you like best about F5 NGINX Plus?

Right now, I don't use it as per business requirements but I have used this a year ago. However, I use Node.js and NGINX docs are quite easy to implement in my application. I have integrated NGINX for load balancing and reverse proxying the requests as Node.js is not capable to do it alone and the plus version is out of the box efficient web accelerator with good engineer support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about F5 NGINX Plus?

You will not be able to use it in an open-source environment and people, when they hear about NGINX plus features online, sometimes get misled to the free version. Also, the plus version for Indian businesses is quite expensive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Stable and High-performance load balancer"
5/5
What do you like best about F5 NGINX Plus?

Enhanced Availability, Speed and Responsiveness. Good cloud native load balancer ingress solution along with API Gateway and load balancer features. Super resilient, no bottlenecks noticed. Capable of scaling for many hosts and applications. We can use the caching features and compressions along with load balance and reverse proxy solutions included in this product. We can also benefit from different protocols such as SMTP, IMAP, POP. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about F5 NGINX Plus?

Licensing model. Metric dashboard is not great. Latency and timeout should be improved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Nginx webserver cum loadbalancer"
4/5
What do you like best about F5 NGINX Plus?

The best thing is you can deploy ngix service very easily on any platform. Since docker image is also available for nginx, its much easier when you are looking micro service application load balancing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about F5 NGINX Plus?

The content is not presice I guess. The video content is also very limited if you for looking for any specific thing about Nginx plus. More video content and reliable doc would be great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"F5 Nginx plus - Great Deployment tool"
5/5
What do you like best about F5 NGINX Plus?

It is a deployment tool for easy deployment of web servers. It is very reliable, fast with expert level production capabilities. It has features like HA, load balancing and production grade health checking made this tool very unique in the market. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about F5 NGINX Plus?

It doesn't have a larger community like Apache, so when we have any issues in deployments we don't get much support is the only drawback as for now. I hope in future this will be resolved as the market of Nginx is growing day by day. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Review of Nginx plus"
5/5
What do you like best about F5 NGINX Plus?

The versatility and the range of solutions nginx provides is the best part. Load balancer, reverse proxy, etc., everything that is needed to host an API platform is what makes this best. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about F5 NGINX Plus?

So far don't see a concern. But for most use cases the free version is enough. So pricing may be a concern if we consider the additional plus benefits. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"NGINX MANAGE"
5/5
What do you like best about F5 NGINX Plus?

The Configuration part is the most liked. If we have a proper document to run this on Docker, that will be the most fruitful thing ever. And Auto Re-correction will be a good hook. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about F5 NGINX Plus?

If it recommends the security part, that will be more helpful. And also, if we have more information available, that would be the best part. If any templates containing a list of commands will be helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
