## Reviews

### "De-facto standard for web server/reverse proxy today" — 5.0/5

> **Eric** | *16 March 2025* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: De facto industry standard for a web server/reverse proxy. Rock solid reliability\!
> 
> **Cons**: Very minor issue but it is Linux based. May be a learning curve depending on the skills of the team.
> 
> Positive experience - very stable, customisable, high performance.

### "The best for web servers" — 5.0/5

> **Gregory** | *30 March 2018* | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Excellent tool, to combine it with virtualized servers with virtual box. My team and I specialized in ubuntu server and nginx virtualized servers to create our development and testing environments. It is comfortable and easy to work with, its handling of clean URLs is very easy.
> 
> **Cons**: It is a very complete and robust tool that from time to time is difficult to learn for those who have little experience in configuring web servers, but once learned a developer will not want to change it.

-----

### "Nginx (free) \> Nginx PLUS" — 3.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *30 October 2018* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The only pro I can pull out of PLUS is their stats dashboard and the fact you pay and get support.
> 
> **Cons**: I find the free version of Nginx is much better and has all the same modules available, minus the support (which you can find most issues for free on the internet, probably)

-----

### "A Great server for modern applications" — 5.0/5

> **Senamela** | *21 November 2022* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I loved the fact that I could use with Node.js, React.js and other modern libraries/frameworks.
> 
> **Cons**: The learning curve is a bit steep, but once you get going it's very user friendly.
> 
> A Great Server for Modern applications, I was surprised at what it could handle.

-----

### "Best in-class web server and proxy" — 5.0/5

> **Gaspar** | *6 July 2023* | Media Production | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Nginx Plus stands out for its exceptional performance and scalability, efficient SSL offload capabilities, flexible content routing for optimized resource allocation, and support for a wide range of predefined protocols, making it a valuable choice for enhancing web application delivery, security, and flexibility.The dashboards and the API are great as wekk.
> 
> **Cons**: Considering the nature of the product and the alternatives, I can't find any negative.
