The ADC Barracuda Load Balancer is a great device that does what it needs to. It's a no frills added system that is reliable and we have rarely had issues with it. The Barracuda Load Balancer was easy to install, and easy to upgrade on our upgrade renewal plan.
The support team can be difficult to understand and to work with. Usually, a support representative can be accessed immediately. In my most recent issue, six hours of wasted time did not lead to a resolution. I called back and requested a more senior support adviser and was transferred to one of the developers of the ADC system, of which my problem was resolved.
Be diligent and read all the KB articles on ADC implementation before jumping in. The support staff for Barracuda will also complete any tasks you may need help with.
The need to have 100% load balanced availability
Barracuda load balancers are easy to setup and administer. They offer plenty of configuration options to suite most uses.
The interface can be clunky and slow at times. Updates and hotfixes don't always go smooth. Documentation can be difficult to source and out of date.
Load balancers are required infrastructure for managing our Sass server farm. They allow us to route traffic around our application providing redundancy and the ability to perform maintenance while keeping the application in production.
Neutral- satisfied but not overly impressed
Nothing in particular - the product works fine but nothing stands out as exceptional.
Provides some organizational tools that otherwise I would be without
I like the UI and the ease of use. It makes my job super easy and the software and updates are always dependable.
Nothing specific, I know my boss sure wishes we could afford more of these devices for our branch locations.
Review all the pro's and cons and I am sure you'll end up back at Barracuda. I am happy with their support, I know our CFO would love to have more of these devices in our network and even some our at our sister companies. They make remote management a breeze and allow us to be efficient with our time. The automated emails are great as well.
This allows us to manage various data streams and prioritize them.
Pros: I like that it comes with prebuilt templates for lync, sharepoint, and exchange just to name a few. Made setup quicker and easier.
Pros: This appliance is very secure and reliable. I have had no issues with mine at all. I've been using it non stop for over five years.
Cons: The UI is a bit outdated. If they would update this then the product would be perfect. I still highly recommend this.
Pros: it is a relatively inexpensive and stable load balancing solution for web traffic and we use to manage traffic to sharepoint sites in our organization and it comes with an intuitive interface.
Cons: more detailed guidance at the time of initial configuration would have been really great. There is guidance documentation on set up available but it is not at the really granular level that enables quick set up.
Pros: Product simply works we need to balance a load of 5 SMTP servers barracuda made this happen very easily.
Cons: .
Overall: Saves money easy to use.
Yes, there are many. For eg: ManageEngine OpManager, Loadbalancer.org, Load Balancer ADC, etc
