"If you have peak demand scenarios like an iPhone launch, Queue-it is really a no brainer. It's an easy win for successfully handling big events without investing huge amounts of money into re-architecting for peak traffic.”
TOM GRAMMER, HEAD OF MOBILE SERVICES
"Autoscaling doesn’t always react fast enough to ensure we stay online. Plus, it’s very expensive to autoscale every time there’s high traffic. If we did this for every traffic spike, it would cost more than double what we pay for Queue-it. So Queue-it was just the better approach, both in terms of reliability and cost.”
Mijail Paz, Head of Technology
“Queue-it helped us deploy controlled digital services that kept us out of the news, brought a sense of calm to our organization, and ensured we worked as efficiently as possible.”
