Netli Teams With Gomez to Combine Application Acceleration Service and Experience Management

Posted on: Monday, 20 November 2006, 15:00 CST

LEXINGTON, Mass., Nov. 20 /PRNewswire/ -- Gomez Inc., the leader in web application experience management, has partnered with Netli to enable organizations to validate and maximize the benefits they're obtaining from Netli's Application Delivery Services.

Netli, based in Mountain View, Calif., is the fastest-growing global service provider for accelerating applications and content over the Internet. Gomez web application experience management solutions will be Netli's preferred source of third-party performance data to validate the performance improvements Netli is providing to its customers. Netli will use and resell Gomez services, including both active (agent-driven tests) and actual-user (browser-based) monitoring, to combine leading Web application acceleration services with unmatched independent visibility into the end-user experience. This is in stark contrast to application acceleration companies that offer customers their own performance data to validate the results, arguably a conflict of interest.

"We're confident in the web performance improvements we're providing to our customers, so we think it's an advantage for all concerned to have all the numbers -- the real end user experience numbers -- as to the value we deliver," said Willie M. Tejada, senior vice president of marketing and business development for Netli. "That's why we're going to a leader in end to end experience management, Gomez, which provides the most accurate performance data available. Unlike other offerings, it accounts for the user's actual experience within their actual browser, as well as systematic tests from data centers and end-user PCs around the world."

According to Peter Sevcik, president of performance consulting firm NetForecast, "Melding Netli's excellent acceleration with Gomez' innovative measurement service creates a powerful solution for delivering Web applications. Enterprises that care about the quality of their users' experience should take a serious look at this team."

The partnership provides wide-ranging benefits for Netli customers. They can monitor their web application performance in real time and compare it to pre-Netli performance. Customers can also use Gomez services to optimize applications that are already providing superior experiences and to monitor applications in real time as they scale.

Netli itself can also leverage Gomez services to run tests before deploying Netli-accelerated applications and identify opportunities at customer sites for additional performance enhancement.

Gomez is first to offer a combination of monitoring that organizations can use in delivering superior online experiences that satisfy customers, strengthen brands and drive profits. The Gomez(R) ExperienceFirst Network(TM) is an integrated system of electronic agents, data center locations (more than 80 worldwide) and end-user computers (more than 12,000) that continuously monitor uptime and response time of customers' critical web sites and services around the world.

Netli is the first managed service provider to optimize the delivery of web applications, content and web services through a unified platform.

"Netli customers can now verify and quantify the value of the service they are paying for using a neutral provider," said Tom Meusel, Gomez vice president of worldwide channel sales. "That's an ideal role for Gomez because we possess the most comprehensive and trusted measurement of web application performance available. Combining our services with a leader in web application acceleration is a powerful solution."
