Unified platform is the most recommended solution for high-performance traffic management, security, and observability
HAProxy Technologies, the company behind HAProxy One, the world’s fastest application delivery and security platform, today announced a landmark achievement in the G2 Summer 2025 Grid® and Index Reports, showcasing unprecedented momentum and sustained leadership. The company was named a Leader in 24 Grid® Reports and five Momentum Grid® Reports. Along with an exceptional Satisfaction Score of 99 and badges including Best Results, Best Relationship, and Best Usability, HAProxy was recognized across multiple G2 categories with Leader positions in Load Balancing, DDoS Protection, Web Application Firewall (WAF), Web Security, API Management, Container Networking, and DevOps.
HAProxy has the distinction of being named a Leader in every G2 category where it is listed, demonstrating the breadth and depth of the HAProxy One platform in comparison with traditional load balancing appliances, single-purpose security or API tools, and products that are available only as-a-service and in the cloud. HAProxy One is perfectly positioned to enable significant cost reduction, enhanced privacy and security, and new use cases such as LLM routing and cloud mesh.
“HAProxy’s industry leadership tells a unique story of a company and community that are dedicated to user satisfaction, continually adapting to a changing tech landscape, with performance and security in the DNA of everything we do,” said Dujko Radovnikovic, CEO, HAProxy Technologies. “As a result, our unified platform delivers unbeatable value – as shown in the hundreds of user reviews on G2.”
G2 category leadership builds on 2025 momentum
These impressive results wrap up an outstanding Spring season for HAProxy Technologies, in which the company continued to build momentum in cloud native and security categories, while pushing the limits of performance at scale.
- In April, the company was a Diamond sponsor of KubeCon Europe in London and became a Gold Member of the Cloud Native Computing Foundation.
- In May, the company released version 3.2 of HAProxy, now optimized for large-scale, multi-core systems, and published a highly influential article by CTO Willy Tarreau on the performance of SSL libraries in multi-threaded software architectures.
- In June, HAProxyConf 2025 brought together the global HAProxy community in San Francisco, where the company announced groundbreaking innovations including the new Threat Detection Engine in HAProxy Enterprise, the new Security Control Plane in HAProxy Fusion, and the new HAProxy Unified Kubernetes Gateway.
HAProxy was created in 2001, and next year will celebrate its twenty-fifth anniversary. Speaking in his keynote at HAProxyConf earlier this month, Kelsey Hightower, a well-known technologist and cloud computing expert, said, “When you do something really well, for a really long time, you become legendary.”
Also at HAProxyConf, Ben Meidell, Sr. Site Reliability Engineer at Roblox, showed how the immersive gaming and creation platform uses hundreds of HAProxy instances to manage and secure millions of requests per second. Commenting on the performance impact of HAProxy Enterprise WAF, Meidell said, “One of the big points about scaling up a web application firewall is the potential impact. We have been extremely impressed with the performance of HAProxy Enterprise WAF. When we first activated it, CPU increase was so negligible that I wondered if I’d made a mistake somewhere. But then I saw all the violations it was catching and realized just how effective it was.”
