I've used Kemp Loadmaster in both physical HA and virtual HA pairing versions, over 4 different implementations over the last decade. Loadmaster proved to be a well-featured product for a fraction of the price of competitor products. We currently use it to publish ~60 sites or services. Kemp customer support has always been excellent in terms of response time and resolution. One one occasion, I also employed their professional services who were also knowledgeable and helped us reach our objectives. Online documentation is good. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The interface is a little dated but serves its purpose. For some new users, the learning curve can be a bit steep to get used to the terminology and way things work, but I've solved that by using examples for them to copy when configuring new stuff. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The loadmaster software has been crucial for us. Kemp's LoadMaster VM is the right size for our organization in both size and cost. Everythign about this product has been flawless for us in dependability/reliability. We just don't have to worry about it doing what it is designed to do. Very capable well beyond what our needs are. It was very easy to deploy inside of our VMware environment and integrated with our processes seamlessly. If we've ever had to contact support, they have been very helpful and give clear instructions for configuration or troubleshooting what we might have missconfigured.

It isn't free? That isn't a real dislike. It is hard to think of anything and I honestly can't come up with anything we've not liked about it since going with the Kemp LoadMaster. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It does its job without having much expertise & experience to spend on it. Strong Load balancing capabilities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Over all its good but WAF should be much strong since its only about Top 10 OWASP. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Simple UI and starts ready to use. Also cheap Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The product is very weak about WAF. Also every year we get security breaches warnings etc. It is not a good experience for customers Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Kemp LoadMaster is not overly complex or over engineered unlike some products I have used in the past. Setting up an HA pair was effortless. Kemp support is proactive in their mailings to patch any security vulnerability that is discovered and disclosed.

Internally we love the Lets Encrypt and Kubernetes ingress controller functionality. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's hard to come up with much of a list about negatives, but with the UI being as simple as it is, it does become a challenege to navigate and administrate when you have a large amount of Virtual IP's or Virtual Services in use and page is constantly reloading. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The online documentation is easy to follow. We utilize ours for our locally hosted pages in our dmz and are migrating our UAG servers to this as well. The process has been smooth and we have been able to get quick responses from support when we run into issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The menu options in the UI are a little nested and difficult to locate. Online documentation is sufficient to assist, however I feel that it could use an update to become more intuitive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
