The Customer
Uptrends.com is the leading provider of online analysis of website activity, service level agreements, hardware, and transactional monitoring. It offers Software as a Service (SaaS) solutions to its global client base, generating web performance reports, customized user overviews, and detailed usability reviews.
Uptrends has over 1,500 customers in 23 countries, including blue chip clients such as IBM, eBay, Getty, Shell, and HSBC, and is recognized for providing superior performance to its clients. It has offices in North America and Europe, with over 60 partner checkpoints covering all major cities of North America, Europe, Africa, Australia, and Asia.
The Request
The main priority for Uptrends was to optimize the overall performance of its website and keep downtime to an absolute minimum. Its clients demand constant accessibility, a reliable service, and consistently fast response times. Uptrends offers its online services to customers as a virtual instance, via its own private cloud. Through this cloud platform, customers can access their key reports from any location. If a customer’s website goes down, the Uptrends platform informs them immediately, so the customer can resolve the problem immediately, which keeps customer downtime to a minimum. Uptrends customers’ appreciate the unique qualities of this approach.
Uptrends website and infrastructure needed to be fast and dependable, providing its clients with reliable access to reports and subscribed services. Moreover, any downtime caused by a hosting provider would have a direct impact on the services it provides, which could irreversibly damage Uptrends reputation. Several internal consultants at Uptrends had worked with Leaseweb in the past and highly recommended its services.
"Leaseweb exceeded Uptrends requirements for a reliable, high-quality hosting solution, ensuring optimum uptime, while maintaining and enhancing the exceptional reputation Uptrends already has with its clients."
Coen H. Backer, Chief Technical Officer
