Please contact us for customer references and also check out what the tech media has to say about Port80. Special Customer Perspectives on Port80 Software Solutions:
Check out these comments from real Port80 users: "[ZipEnable]’s really a “set it and forget it” type product. Ron Popeil would be proud. I can’t imagine how high our bandwidth bills would have been during the Vikings playoff run (if you want to call it that) without compression... Anyway, pass on my compliments to the blog team as well. It’s one of my favorites to read every day." - John @ a Web development 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 "Both port80 [httpZip/ZipEnable] and xcompress are good. For IIS 6, port80’s software has a hook to the CPU to dynamically roll back the degree of compression if the CPU load is above your set limits." - Brett Hill, Microsoft IIS MVP @ IIStraining.com "The good news is, today I purchased ZipEnable for IIS6 from Port80Software. This program is a nifty GUI to manage the built-in IIS6 compression capabilities. We're now compressing all content off the site, and things are running 80% faster on average... Maybe we won't need to upgrade for a while now. I'll keep you posted." - Community Leader @ Longhornblogs.com "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 "I'm very impressed with the software and the support. It's nice to know there are still companies like this alive and well. We're sold so now I have to show the gains to the owner and we should be license holders. :)" - Bill @ a hosting service provider "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 "One of our customers who has a magazine web site, were suffering about their homepage and other pages. They were so slooooow. Because they want everything in the homepage and homepage is around 1 meg. What we did was simply install zipenable and activate it. Wooossshhh. They love us now. And of course they awarded us with their new projects. The site is ... (Sorry its Turkish). The site runs on win2003std server + iis6. Zipenable was so easy to use that it took us only seconds to get the result. The check feature of port80 web site also helped us to understand what we are suffering of. Thanks to port80 software stuff that they created a genius sw like zipenable." - Can @ a Turkish online magazine "We are currently using ZipEnable on our IIS6 web server - I'm very pleased with it! I'm also impressed by the level of customer service I've encountered from Port 80 in the past, and also your interesting newsletters. Keep up the good work.." - James @ a collectibles e-commerce site "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 "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 am very happy with the performance of zipEnable... it has provided a large performance boost to for one of my clients." - Thomas @ a Web development firm "We recently installed Windows 2003 in order to take advantage of the security and compression capabilities of IIS 6.0. Petpages is primarily a free website for pet lovers and we cannot afford the high level bandwidth that the site is currently demanding. Petpages receives an average of 307,000 hits a day, on the busiest days we are receiving nearly 500,000 hits a day. The most popular section of Petpages is our Pet Ads, which lists thousands of current ads along with tens of thousands of photos, currently we are storing 30,000 photos for active ads. Due to the popularity of this site and our bandwidth restrictions, you can clearly see why IIS 6.0 compression would be a high priority for us. Until we found ZipEnable we were not exactly sure if we were doing all we could to improve our bandwidth consumption for static and dynamic content. We have been using IIS 6.0 with ZipEnable for only a short while, but we have noticed improvements in the delivery of pages. Our pages are being compressed and delivered at a 79% size reduction, this is extremely important for us. Petpages recommends IIS 6.0 and ZipEnable for anyone would wants to get the most out of their bandwidth. " - Derek L. Babcock @ Petpages.com "I am finding your code useful on servers where we have multiple sites and some wont run with asp zipped etc .. your code is great at saving time, messing around with metabase.xml... Good luck with an honest, innovative and responsive company/product! Whilst not unique, its rare !" - David @ a Web development agency "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 | |
