What do you like best about the product?
The Kemp Loadmaster makes it easy to route traffic to the different servers in our cluster so that no single one is overloaded during peak usage times.
What do you dislike about the product?
The initial setup gave us a bit of trouble, but Kemp Support was tenacious in helping us to figure it out.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have a system that could see thousands of connections during peak times. This is a critical system that staff needs to run smoothy and quickly. Since staff are not the only ones using the system, it could get bogged down and prevent information from being retrieved in a timely manner. This balances that load for us so we can focus on other priorities.
