Pros
"Our customers are more than satisfied with the user experience provided by the product."

More Airlock Pros →

"The solution is easy to set up.""Azure Application Gateway's most valuable feature is ease of use. The configuration is straightforward. It isn't difficult to adjust the size of your instances in the settings. You can do that with a few clicks, and the configuration file is the same way. You can also set rules and policies with minimal time and effort.""The production is a valuable feature.""We can control what rules should be used and what should be disabled.""The most valuable feature of Microsoft Azure Application Gateway is its ease of use.""The solution provides great automation and it is easy to upgrade service.""Application Gateway automatically redirects unwanted users and takes care of the security aspect. It also handles the performance side of things, which is why we use it.""Some of the key features of this solution are the low-level maintenance required, floating proxy service, and load balancing."

Cons
"The tool must be simplified."

More Airlock Cons →

"The graphical interface needs improvement because it is not user friendly.""Implementing and standardizing the solution across the IT landscape in a heterogeneous environment is painful.""Needs easier integration with the existing SIAM.""Microsoft Azure Application Gateway could improve by allowing features to use more third-party tools.""The tool's pricing could be improved.""The support can be improved when you are configuring the system rules. The Disaster Recovery feature can be added in the next release. The price of the solution can be reduced a bit.""The solution could improve by increasing the performance when doing updates. For example, if I change the certificate it can take 30 minutes. Other vendors do not have this type of problem.""It could be more stable, and support could be better. It would also be better if they offered more features. For example, it lacks security features. Before we used another English solution, and we realized that some of the rules were not set up correctly and passed through the Application Gateway's English controllers. But the problem, in this case, is if you send ten rules, for example, six rules hit some issues. IP address blocking could be better. The rules, for example, don't work properly. If you have one issue, one rule or another rule will not work. This sounds like total madness to me."

  • "There is some additional cost, such as extended support."
  • "The cost is not an issue."
  • "The solution is reasonably priced compared to other solutions."
  • "The pricing is based on how much you use the solution."
