4.5/5

I am using HAProxy in prod for serving millions of requests monthly and i love the product. The ease of configurability and scalability and how lightweight HAProxy is is a game changer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HAProxy?

The only thing that could be improved is maybe offer more storage backends or a native IP failover solution so we wont have to use ezternal software anymore Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's great to hear that HAProxy is serving you well. IP failover may not be integrated into HAProxy because there are several different approaches. However, keep an eye on HAProxy Fusion for this.

Thank you for leaving feedback on HAProxy. Although it offers much more than just a GUI, HAProxy Fusion gives you dashboards and managements over a fleet of HAProxy instances. And it simplifies usage for anyone who isn't very familiar with Linux.
