Their customer service is also second to none -- I couldn't ask for a more friendly and responsive experience. Cons The dashboard could benefit from some more granularity in terms of bandwidth usage.

RE Reviewer Senior Full Stack Developer Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Better than Fixie Socks" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 9/10 April 30, 2021 We had a lot of trouble getting a ruby rails app connecting to an external database that required a static IP address. We tried Fixie Socks because they said they offered TCP support for databases but their implementation did not work for ruby database drivers. I spent an entire afternoon trying to get Fixie Socks to work with no luck. Once I switched over to Quotaguard I had my configuration working as expected within the hour. Pros THe static IP proxy worked right away as intended. We had some issues figuring out some setup but that was more of a Heroku problem than anything else, as soon as we reached out to Quotaguard's support team we had our issues resolved within the hour. Cons I would hope to find better documentation for database connections. When I googled how to connect a ruby rails app to a proxy for database connections the only results that came back were regarding HTTP connections and not TCP connections for databases.

No code changed required. other products at same price requires change in code and its tedious to get started. QG dashboard is good as it not much jazzy but includes all required info. Support is great. Cons Documentation seems to be old to be, many things that I came to know in support phase is not mentioned in doc. Eg: how do I tunnel basic rails features like rack console etc. I had downloaded qgtunel file that needs to place at root directory of app, but did not knew it needs renaming to .qgtunnel Review source Non-incentivized review: any software user can leave a review for any product listed on our site.

They have responsive customer service and have given immediate, thorough and technical solutions to all of our questions. Pros QuotaGuard enables us to provide connections from Heroku to our customers over a set of static IP addresses. This is a must-have feature for some customers and we would not be able to win their business without QG! Cons There are no drawbacks to using QG.

However, I couldn't get it to work even after downloading a separate library that they recommend (fixie-wrench). So I was relieved to find QuotaGuard. The QuotaGuard team clearly cares about their product and their customers. I enjoyed my interactions with them, and their product seems reliable so far. Overall a solid choice for Heroku/MongoDB Atlas builds. Pros The product is straightforward in its design and it worked well with my use case on Heroku/MongoDB Atlas. It enabled me to set up static IP addresses for additional database security, and it distributes traffic between them. I was able to easily add the IP addresses to MongoDB Atlas. Cons My use case was slightly different than the one described in their documentation, so I got stuck while setting it up. Fortunately, the team was prompt to respond when I reached out to customer service, and they worked with me directly to find the solution. It was a refreshing experience, and I haven't had any issues since. Review source Non-incentivized review: any software user can leave a review for any product listed on our site.

RE Reviewer CTO Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Easy to set up, and does everything we need" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 8/10 December 6, 2022 Pros Provided us with a set of static IPs that we use for content delivery (to service providers that require a list of approved senders), and enabled root level domains with Heroku + GoDaddy. The customer service is probably the best feature though as we receive fantastic support from \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\] Cons The Heroku dashboard could do with a sprucing up, but apart from that I don't really have much to complain about.

Some of the best I've interacted with for B2B companies. Whenever there are snags or setup issues, their support answers emails quickly and hops on zooms to debug with us.
