Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The robust software architecture allows for it to be scalable and very stable.""The best solution, by far, for web traffic control for things in production and just around the house.""Supports IMAP, POP and SMTP protocols for the reverse proxy.""Nginx is extremely efficient in terms of the connection rate to the CPU cycles ratio, and in terms of the bandwidth to CPU cycles.""Nginx is simple to configure, very stable in a highly utilized environment and very modular, allowing DevOps to create it's own modules for interactive use with Nginx.""It performs very well. That's one of the primary reasons we use NGINX.""This solution has everything.""NGINX Plus also has NGINX App Protect. It's a separate module, which is inspired by the F5 apps."

"The transaction handling of WebLogic and the way it is designed is excellent.""What I've been seeing as the most valuable characteristics of WebLogic Suite include robustness and scalability. It's a really good solution, and I'm not saying this because my company is a partner of WebLogic Suite. I also like that with the newer versions of the solution, you can deploy WebLogic Suite faster. Oracle also provides excellent technical support.""The solution is useful for centralizing data.""The program is scalable.""It easily connects to other Oracle products and services.""WebLogic Suite is scalable.""The most valuable feature is that it provides one place where you can control all of the services.""The feature that I have found to be the most valuable is the ease of deployment."

Cons
"The user interface could be improved.""The solution must improve its performance.""The center management system could be improved.""The KPI should be more focused on load balancing and the latency in application calling from the end system.""I would like the configuration process to be more simplified.""It would be good if NGINX provided a graphical user interface.""Only improvement needed that I would point to is scalability. With it, I mean clusterized organisation on a low level. At the moment, the best alternative is RHEL HA.""The drawback is that you must obtain a license for everything."

"There are sometimes issues with clusters.""I rate the scalability of WebLogic Suite an eight out of ten.""The restart capability needs to be improved because it takes us 15 minutes to restart any application.""This solution doesn't have connectors to other external applications.""The support is not good.""I noticed a few areas for improvement in WebLogic Suite. If you use the pure play higher-availability features, then yes, it can be switched over to the other system from the high-availability point of view, but that comes with a certain price. If you prefer simpler high-availability, that requires manual intervention. I'd also recommend a tuning feature in WebLogic Suite because it's not self-tuning, and this means you need thorough expertise to do the tuning and leverage the best benefit out of it. If Oracle makes WebLogic Suite automated or self-driven, then it becomes a wonderful product, similar to what Oracle did for the Autonomous Database which is self-driven or has an autonomous operating system. If automation is added in the next release of the solution, combined with more affordable pricing, though as a technical person, I know how much goes into having automation as a feature, and it could be difficult to lower the price, but if Oracle can do it, then that would make WebLogic Suite better.""The licensing for the solution is pretty expensive. It may be the most expensive solution, if you were to compare it to the competition.""Sometimes there are issues when we work on a VM because people use it to put all of their reports on it at the same time. Then I have to restart and rebuild the machine."
