I’m a really big fan of how I can install Apache on essentially any computer on the entire planet and it will work pretty darn well out of the box.

What do you like best about Apache HTTP Server Project?

I like the fact that Apache works across all platforms, but also that it is so amazingly extensible. The fact that you can proxy servers from behind and make them available via this secure engine is brilliant - especially for node.js and dot net core projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Apache HTTP Server Project?

Very little, there is almost nothing to dislike - perhaps the only thing I would say is that for Windows/Mac users there isn't a decent reliable GUI tool to admin config files - aside from a text editor - but to be honest that isn't really a dislike, it is just part of working with Apache (and its related pieces of software). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Apache HTTP Server Project:

If you want a simple web-server that can be used cross-platform (config files cascade operating environments with minimal problems for example) - and want to use it to secure and hide other services you have behind and have those services served by Apache - or a secure Web Server - then Apache is the way to go. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Apache HTTP Server Project solving and how is that benefiting you?

Allows us to host dot net applications as well as any other technology that we want - but still have the security of Apache. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
