Review on HAProxy by Anthony Morrow

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Very reliable and responsive software / server management

A very easy to use service, no complex features or unnecessary bells & whistles; just simple configuration that works well with my VPS hosting plan's needs! I like how it handles incoming traffic at an extremely fast rate (at least when compared against other services), which makes for seamless web browsing experience without any lag time between page loads. One thing about this particular product though - there are some things in its user interface where one can easily get confused due to non-intuitive design choices by their developers/authors of said tool (e.g., "Backup" button). So far so good but nothing as much significant to dislike otherwise :) The fact that you don't have to worry too much if your servers will work properly because even if 1 out 10 fail they still would make sure all customers go through them successfully helps me sleep better while using such platform since everything has been.
