Application Delivery and Traffic Management Appliance - What do our customers think?

These are some genuine quotes from customers who love our simple and powerful Application Delivery and Traffic management Appliances.

"We love to hear from you so don't hesitate to contact us and discuss your load balancing infrastructure"

Load Balancing Software - Price is not always the deciding factor, but it helps.

"We saved $140,000 by not going with an F5 application delivery network solution, and we never looked back"

"The thing that impressed me was that support questions are actually answered by someone who knows what they are talking about."

"We tried Microsoft NLB and compared it to a Loadbalancer.org ENTERPRISE appliance. We were shocked to find the Loadbalancer decimated the other solution on performance & features."

"Our old Foundry kit was maxing out at about 900 Mb/s on persistent connections...the ENTERPRISE pair we now have doesn't even break a sweat."

"I never thought that I would buy 5 load balancers... but it just saves so much hassle.."

"We've finished our testing of LoadBalancing solutions (we tested both Loadbalancer.org and JetNexus using Microsoft WAS) and found that Loadbalancer performed better in virtually all circumstances we could throw at it (we were unable to really tell the difference when throttling bandwidth via WAS) - especially in our "real-life" scenarios (based on usage over our WAN/LAN)."

"Firstly, thanks to both the support engineers I talked to for your very rapid response. Apple and O2 could learn a thing or two from you ;-)"

What do our customers say about us?

We have many customers some large, some small but they all want performance, high availability, quality support and
value for money.

	"We have been amazed at how stable and reliable our Loadbalancer.org product has been. What has amazed us even more was how attentive and excellent their support is! They go above and beyond to help resolve issues. They even continued to help us with one issue having to do with ARP Cache, long after it was clear the issue was with our network rather than the LoadBalancer.org software, not many companies go above and beyond like that these days! The team at Loadbalancer.org has also wow'd us by showing that their support is not affected by time zones, they provide excellent customer support 24/7/365!"

This solution allowed us to leverage our current virtual infrastructure for unmatched availability and stability.

	"Our solution at the time was running close to the limit of what I was comfortable with for its rating, but the logical choice for us to move on to a more powerful same supplier solution was not an option. Cisco stopped producing a stand alone solution and built the load balancing technology into a product range that wasn’t suitable for our needs. The search for a suitable replacement began and as well looking at offerings from the usual suspects we reached for Google The two Sledgehammer high availability clustered pairs we bought were hugely cost effective while at the same time offering the fault tolerance level ASOS needed to give the confidence to commit to the service levels ASOS aims to provide its customer base" Paul Cottingham ASOS.com ......................................................................................................................................................

	"We distribute large multi-terabyte global datasets based on satellite remote sensing for environmental (land use, climate change and biodiversity) research using Google Earth as a visualization tool, see here.

The loadbalancer has been easy to set up and works like a dream.
