Performance of NSX Load Balancer Across Market Features
NSX Load Balancer Likes & Dislikes
For me it's the performance of the product and it's features in contributing to a resilient network infrastructure in our organization.
1) Ease of Use 2) Available Documentation 3) Vendor Support
I like that this integrates with the existing NSX deployment and can be managed through vcenter.
First, is the setup of the product, it is not for the newbie. Second, proper documentation for resource allocation and management of the product. Last is the cost, it's just too high for the small company.
1) Lack of proper Sizing tool 2) Limited Options to scale vertically/horizontally 3) Complex changes from NSX-V to NSX-T to NSX-T-Advanced
I dislike the limited feature set for layer 7 load balancing and advanced controls.

Unveiling Advanced Features in Load Balancing Solutions
As a system administrator in our organization, my overall experience with this product is great. It has advanced features and the capabilities of the load balancer that others have not. So, for me, I am generally very satisfied. - VP - Cloud Platform10B+ USDBankingReview Source
NSX-LB - Best choice for vSphere On-Prem Cloud
Happy about the product overall however concerned around the scaling and sizing options. Most of those require escalation to Engineering for the options. We had days and weeks of troubleshooting before identifying we are exhausting the TCP Session limit and need a solution that scale it horizontally as we were already at the vertical sizing limit. Same challenge even for the backend where we had to change from a single SNAT IP to a pool of SNAT IPs to resolve the challenges. - System Engineer50M-1B USDBankingReview Source
Good product but needs some maturity
This was a pretty straightforward install and configuration. The basic loadbalancing features are available and it does a good job of that. It falls short on the advanced features that dedicated appliances posses. - Senior System Engineer1B-10B USDBankingReview Source
New generation Load Balance
Together with the nsx load balancer, we started to successfully distribute the network traffic to our servers. Server load deployment with nsx load balancer was very successful - SE - Senior Engineer1B-10B USDHealthcare and BiotechReview Source
