Overall Satisfaction with Kemp LoadMaster

We are using Kemp LoadMaster as a reverse proxy for Microsoft Exchange. We are also using the product for load-balancing internal services. The whole organization is using the product and it's transparent for the users, as they are not really aware they pass through the appliance to access inside services. Having a reverse proxy is a secure way to protect access to inside services like Microsoft Exchange. With the ESP configured, we feel that the service[s] are more protected from external threats. There's a lot of attacks possible on Exchange and we needed a solution that would prevent direct access to the web interfaces. Having the virtual appliance sitting between the internet and the real servers, it intercept[s] the request, process[es] them, and can block unwanted request[s] with the Web Application Firewall integrated.
  • Reverse proxy
  • Load-balancing
  • Web Application Firewall
  • Configuring advanced feature like ESP can be challenging.
  • Logging viewing could be improved.
  • Improved security
We didn't use other product[s], we chose Kemp LoadMaster after looking at reviews.
The web interface is pretty straightforward and easy to use. There's a lot of documentation available on the Kemp website. The deployment of a virtual appliance is a breeze and can be done in minutes!
We always had quick support from Kemp. When we 1st configured the appliances, we needed help with the Edge Security Pack feature configuration. The support specialist was able to help us with the configuration issues in a timely manner.

One of the scenario[s] where a Kemp LoadMaster appliance could be used if when you have Microsoft Exchange servers on premises and you want to protect them from the outside threats. You can configure Kemp as a reverse proxy which will act as the front-end to Internet request on Exchange servers, thus protecting the real servers from attacks.
