Web acceleration for ecommerce sites
Companies like Amazon, eBay, and Facebook have known for years that improving page load time has a direct impact on conversions, page views, and revenue. These companies have elite teams of developers who specialize in front-end site optimization. Strangeloop gives "mortal companies" the same advanced expertise, via automated solutions. The result: page load time improvements of at least 100% – consistently, dynamically, and automatically.
Retail and consumer companies like PETCO, Wine.com, and O’Reilly Media rely on Strangeloop to increase web performance and accelerate applications. With Strangeloop, companies can cut page load times by more than half for both desktop and mobile users, with substantial benefits:
"At PETCO, providing pet parents with an efficient, convenient and enjoyable user experience when shopping us online is an important part of our customer commitment. With Strangeloop's Site Optimizer, we've been able to decrease the average page load time on PETCO.com by 5.5 seconds – a phenomenal improvement."
57% of online consumers will abandon a website after waiting 3 seconds for a page to load. This extends to mobile users as well: more than half expect sites to load at least as quickly on their mobile devices as they do on their desktop.
Strangeloop helps you deliver a faster user experience to your customers, whether they're browsing at home or on the go. The Strangeloop Site Optimizer and Mobile Optimizer deliver the most powerful, consistent, scalable front-end website speed optimization on the market.
Strangeloop solutions are available as an appliance in your datacenter or as a service via the cloud. No matter which implementation you choose, Strangeloop is the only front-end optimization vendor that gives you:
- the convenience and immediacy of an automated tool,
- the customization you need to squeeze every last ounce of performance from your site,
- the knowledge that you are using a solution that has been tried, tested, and trusted by some of the world's largest companies and technology partners, and
- the 24/7 global support you need to feel secure in your performance investment.
The results: happier customers, greater conversion rates, higher revenues, improved search engine results, and more productive employees.

Our solutions deliver full ROI within six months, and sometimes within just weeks. Here's what some of our ecommerce customers have to say about the benefits of using Strangeloop:
Elite performance optimization, via a product
"We're not an Amazon or a Facebook, who have entire elite teams of developers who specialize in front-end optimization. But with Strangeloop, we could get the same advanced expertise and insight that Amazon and Facebook have, via a product."
-- Sam Wolf, President, LuckyVitamin.com
Cuts page load times by at least half
"We were incredibly impressed at how quickly Strangeloop improved our site's performance. On average, they cut our page load time in half – and even more in key markets such as Asia and Europe."
-- Jackie Reid, VP Project Services & Program Manager, Visa Luxury Hotel Collection
Increases conversions/revenue
"The Strangeloop Site Optimizer has obviously improved conversion and revenue for us. When you affect conversion by 9%, that is very significant on an annual basis."
-- Parag Patel, CTO, AutoAnything.com
Improves customer satisfaction
"We never get complaints about the site being slow. When our customers do mention the site's speed, it's to tell us how snappy it is."
-- Nick Parker, VP Engineering, uShip.com
Reduces network overhead
"Being able to optimize via the cloud is incredible. We've eliminated a huge potential network overhead. This alone makes Site Optimizer pay for itself right out of the gate."
-- Sam Wolf, President, LuckyVitamin.com
Complements other solutions (such as CDN, ADC, and DSA) to deliver even faster performance
"Performance tuning requires a multi-tiered approach. The Strangeloop Site Optimizer is an essential component in our site's performance toolkit, alongside our dynamic site accelerator (DSA) and in-house performance engineers."
-- Geoffrey Smalling, CTO, Wine.com
Accelerates pages for mobile devices
"Using Mobile Optimizer, we've seen a 50% performance improvement on our site. Any speed improvement inevitably results in higher conversion. The benefits of mobile acceleration couldn't be more clear."
-- Parag Patel, CTO, AutoAnything.com
Automating performance frees up valuable developer time
"There isn't much the device does that we can't do ourselves, in theory, but it was impossibly time consuming for us to actually do it. I'd much rather pay a licensing fee than deal with having people constantly researching and manually coding pages. Simply put, there's no ROI in us doing it ourselves."
-- Nick Parker, VP Engineering, uShip.com
Customized optimization rules for highly dynamic sites
"A cookie-cutter solution would never work for us. Strangeloop was superb throughout the entire implementation process, developing custom optimizations based on our unique, regulated business."
-- Geoffrey Smalling, CTO, Wine.com
Seamless implementation, zero downtime
"The entire implementation has met and exceeded our expectations. The process was completely seamless, with zero downtime. We're very happy."
-- Mark Currence, Network Administrator and Security Analyst, PrintingForLess.com
Bandwidth savings
"The bandwidth savings alone pay for itself. If you're saving just 2 mbps, that's $24K over the course of a year."
-- Nick Parker, VP Engineering, uShip.com
Solutions constantly evolve, ensuring your site is always at the front edge of optimization
"Strangeloop removes the headaches of trying to code performance yourself, trying to stay up to date with the latest browser developments, and constantly tuning and re-tuning your code. Now we don't have to worry about future optimization efforts. We can count on Strangeloop to stay up to speed on the latest techniques and developments with HTML5, CSS, and any other new tools."
-- Sam Wolf, President, LuckyVitamin.com
Mitigates the impact of ever-growing pages
"It's an ongoing effort to get to our 2-second goal. For every two steps forward, my marketing team comes up with new ideas, new dynamic content, and new tools that take us a step back. Site Optimizer definitely helps mitigate this."
-- Geoffrey Smalling, CTO, Wine.com
Front-end optimization (FEO) is not a simple, one-size-fits-all technology. The optimization techniques that work for one page might not work for another. Techniques that work for one browser type may break a page in a different browser. Strangeloop solutions recognize the complexity of modern web applications and deliver customized optimization -- automatically -- to today's dynamic, content-rich pages.
Our solutions can be deployed as appliances or as services via the cloud. No matter which deployment option you choose, you'll receive the same unparalleled performance benefits.
