Check out these comments from real Port80 users: "In talking to [our developer], he has indicated how nice it has been to work with your company in getting the HttpZip product functional at one of our vendor sites. I appreciate the great customer service that you provide for your products. The HttpZip product has been a success for us. We have gained significant increases in response time without increasing our network bandwidth. Thanks for your help in our success." - Greg @ a leading national bank  "I have been a proponent of your company and products ever since I found your site and first purchased httpZip. Not only are your products excellent, your customer service is absolutely outstanding, which is sadly lacking in a lot of todays tech companies. I have also learned a lot about optimizing content delivery from the articles you publish on your website. I will definitely be speaking highly of Port80 wherever and whenever anyone will listen!" - James @ an Australian travel resort company "I would however recommend httpZip from port80Software. It is much more efficient than the compression available in IIS 5.0" - Kristofer, a Microsoft IIS MVP "We have been using... HttpZip for a couple of years now for our web-based ERP system. This has worked to great satisfaction of both ourselves and our customers – as you can imagine, our interface consists primarily of fairly large HTML lists and tables, which obviously lend themselves extremely well to compression. In short, our product wouldn’t be the same without HttpZip." - Christian @ a software company "We have both Cacheright and Httpzip in production now, and they are working very nicely." - Anne @ a major airline's site "I appreciate all your help, and want you to know that I thought your customer service was exceptional, and that I’ll definitely recommend your products to my peers. Keep up the excellent work." - Sam @ a federal contractor "We would like to thank you for this software,... we are saving alot of bandwith, we went from 3,500 gig / month to 1050 gig now... That is a huge saving for our company." - Benoit @ a Canadian company "We are very happy with the performance boost on the production server that is now running httpZip, it has made a great performance boost for the sites on that server. " - Thomas @ a Web-based application development firm "Your team have done a great job, and I congratulate you. You’ve delivered the functionality we need on time and on budget, and you’ve help us with a very tricky technical issue. Please pass on my thanks and congratulations to your team of experts." - David @ a top 5 global software company "we are using both httpzip and zipenable from port80. For our classic ASP app's we average 25-45% bandwidth savings. One of our site (golfing union of ireland) has a number of points in the week where the traffic spikes quite heavily e.g. monday lunchtime when golfers check their handicaps, and the CPU level does rise, but the benefits of being able to quickly server content to hundreds of users outweight this. For dotnetnuke installs, we've actually got much large savings, typically 50-65%. I would presume that this is due to that fact that many of the pages contain similar content i.e. same skins on multiple containers. In both cases, we run with the default settings to minimise cpu spiking. As for zipenable, we only have 1 iis6 server. It was very simple to use zipenable to configure indivual sites, based on their subscription to services. We sell httpcompression as an optional addon for sites, so the granular control is very useful. At $80 it was cheaper that spending time configuring metabase entries." - Cathal @ a .NET development house "Wow! real support, real explanations - well done, a first from any software provider I have ever dealt with. Thank you!" - Mark @ a full service Web development agency "I was blown away as how much faster the site was after [httpZip] was setup." - Richard @ a technology consultancy "To whom it may concern, I run a website that accepts online registrations to Irish Dancing competitions (yeah I know what you're thinking but there really is a need!) Last week my website was rendered unusable due to my bandwidth being fully consumed. My customers attempted to register for a space limited popular event with a lot of difficulties. The slower the browsing got the more my customers attempted to create new web sessions (either with new browsers or requests from other machines) which only further worsened the situation. In looking into what went wrong and where, I found my connection to be the cause. Looking deeper, I found that each of my web pages (with images and dynamic content) was between 80k and 100k. Multiply this over a couple hundred sessions and it was a problem waiting to happen. A while back, an office mate from my day job at Dundas Software, Chris Maunder from CodeProject.com, let me know about you guys so I decided to try out your software. I was expecting this weekend to be busy like last week and something HAD to be done. Upgrading my internet connection to increase bandwidth was not an option given the time available. The next best thing was to make improvements to make do with my current bandwidth. With some process modifications at my end and the use of your software, HttpZip and CacheRight, my website experienced no significant delays and the day was a resounding success. After the installation of HttpZip there was only one issue that I managed to resolve without any need for any real support (although a member of your support team did respond quickly to my emails and was professional an courteous). The issue was some browsers experience extremely slow page loads apparently caused by enabling of the removal of white space. Upon resetting the config to the default values of HttpZip all was fine. I would recommend your performance products to anyone. Your software saved the credibility of my website and allowed me to enjoy my weekend rather than performing damage control to my servers." - Andrew @ an Irish dancing site (Not Riverdance!) "Thank you so much. It amazes me what great customer service you give to your customers, and I for one really appreciate it." - Cynthia @ her personal blog site "Just thought I would email you about the success with using the httpzip product. "Prior to using your product a 1mb+ file was downloaded by every client accessing our web job management system. This was causing a massive problem for our 6 remote offices that shared a 2mb connection to the central network and I spent the majority of my time telling people how to work around this problem or listening to users complaining. Thanks to your product this is compressed by around 70-75% (its currently 73.62%) and has resolved the problems with remote offices accessing our web application. This is with enabling compression and we haven't enabled any caching or optional compression yet. Thanks again." - Adam @ a engineering and design firm "I did a final test, uploading a very large CFM file of 200k of text, and it comes almost instantly rather than over seconds for such a large file." - Andrew @ an Australian software company Before httpZip: "First impressions of httpZip - Excellent. We've been experiencing a big problem with a particular site written in ASP.NET/VB.NET - It's a complicated site, and rendered files were running in at over 100k, so the whole site was running very slowly. After checking that our code was running as fast as possible, we installed httpZip, and were staggered by the results." After httpZip: "Our development team are all really impressed with httpZip. A quick, simple installation lead to instantly noticable results with just the default settings, and I'm confident we can squeeze even more speed out of the advanced properties. We're getting speed increases of at least 3.5x, which is incredible; I wish we'd discovered httpzip a couple of years ago." - Paul @ an Internet software development company "I'm surprised httpzip isn't used a lot more than it is, as it saves so much in bandwidth (i typically get 84% reduction on average)." - Jonathan @ a UK community site "httpZip has been a huge asset for us. Bandwidth costs are a huge concern when you run a free site with hundreds of thousands of visitors, and httpZip helps keep our costs to a minimum." - Rick @ a major online gaming portal "[httpZip is a] great product by the way. We looked at a lot of different solutions and yours was definately the most easily deployed and managed solution providing a significant reduction in bandwith for a very fair price." - Joe @ a custom software development company "Outstanding... I am most impressed with the attention given to improving the products." - Bob @ a US ISP "Thanks for getting this issue tackled for us, I am impressed with your company's support and flexibility." - Tony @ a large B2C site "Top marks for support!" - Tim @ a retail portal back to top | |
