STRENGTHS & WEAKNESSES
Explore a Comparison of RELIANOID and HAProxy Across Key ADC Capabilities.
HAProxy’s Strengths
Cost-effective solution appealing to organizations with budget constraints.
Exceptional performance and low latency, making it an ideal choice for high-traffic applications.
HAProxy is highly customizable and configurable, allowing administrators to fine-tune it to meet specific application requirements.
Vibrant open-source community that continually contributes to its development and provides support through forums and documentation.
Well-suited for containerized environments and cloud-native architectures, making it adaptable to modern deployment models.
RELIANOID’s Strengths
Expert and skilled R&D professionals accomplished in Zevenet and Zen Load Balancer, departing from an Open Source technology with no vendor lock-in and broad platforms integration (hardware, virtual, bare metal and cloud), bringing security, performance and readiness.
Cost-effective solutions with no constraints on products and services, tailored to the needs of midsize companies as well as large enterprises.
Protocol Versatility adapting and managing diverse network environments and protocols (UDP, TCP, HTTP/S, SCTP, SIP, T/FTP).
L7 and L4 Performance managing over 140K concurrent users at Layer 7, while at Layer 4, it efficiently handles more than 10 million concurrent users, all with just 2 dedicated cores.
High Availability witha automatic real time stateful cluster replication.
Security and WAF improved as it incorporates an Intrusion Prevention and Detection System (IPDS) and also an integrated Web Application Firewall (WAF). It actively safeguards web applications against specific threats while providing real-time IP blacklisting, Denial of Service (DoS) protection, and support for black and whitelisting.
User-friendly interface designed for both DevOps and SRE professionals, ensuring ease of use in managing and configuring systems.
Automation thanks to its fully programmable and robust REST+JSON API.
HAProxy’s Weaknesses
Learning to effectively configure and manage HAProxy can be challenging for individuals or teams not already familiar with load balancing concepts and the software itself.
Lack some advanced Layer 7 features and content inspection capabilities offered by some competitors.
Doesn’t include a built-in Web Application Firewall (WAF).
In terms of enterprise-specific features such as RBAC (Role-Based Access Control) and centralized management consoles, HAProxy may lag behind some of the established ADC vendors.
Dynamic environments with frequently changing backends or backend services can require frequent updates to the HAProxy configuration, which can be a manual and error-prone process.
HAProxy needs to be properly secured and maintained to prevent security vulnerabilities and threats.
While HAProxy offers logging capabilities, diagnosing and troubleshooting issues can be complex and may require third-party tools or manual inspection of log files.
RELIANOID’s Weaknesses
Emerging brand, challenging the ADC and Load Balancing market, operating as an open-source company.
Still in the process of building a significant presence. It must expand its partnership network more extensively.

CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE
Andre from DL Hosting
“For me and DL-Host, RELIANOID ADC Load Balancer simply makes life easier and is much more than just a load balancer. […] The best thing about it is really the Web Gui… No more dozens of config files that you have to edit on the console, no more errors because you forgot a comma. No more endless VPN connecting because you have to get somewhere via SSH. No, just do everything in the browser, log in and you’re good. […] Compared to the old solution (Nginx and HAProxy), I have found a solution that acts even faster, runs more stable and comes with functions for free that others only provide in paid versions.”
