Proven leader in website acceleration chosen to improve global
performance for leading e-tailer
TEMPE, Ariz.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Limelight
Networks, Inc.(“Limelight”) (Nasdaq:LLNW) a global leader in
digital content delivery, today announced that Costume SuperCenter has
deployed Limelight OrchestrateTM (“Orchestrate”) Content
Delivery, Cloud Storage and Performance services to enhance the
performance, reliability and visitor experience of its website. Costume
SuperCenter chose Limelight after evaluating four vendors on web
performance and dynamic content acceleration.
Costume SuperCenter, based in Edison New Jersey, is a leading e-tailer
for costumes, party supplies and accessories. They are dedicated to
making the costume shopping experience satisfying, fun, safe, and easy.
The company’s e-tail website must effectively engage their digital
audience with consistent high performance, reliability, and global
reach. Any latency or downtime could harm the business. After careful
assessment, they chose the Orchestrate Performance and Cloud Storage
services to ensure consistent high performance, particularly for their
dynamic content.
“It is not acceptable for our content to load slowly or for the site to
go offline, so we needed to be assured that the solution we chose was
highly reliable. In addition, we needed to improve the response time for
dynamic content,” said Michael Sole, manager of web applications at
Costume SuperCenter. “Limelight met and exceeded these criteria – the
increase in our website performance was dramatic. In addition, the
migration process went very well – there was zero downtime during the
transition. It was a seamless process and transition.”
Since deploying the Orchestrate platform, Costume SuperCenter’s load
time has decreased by more than 30 percent – significantly improving the
end user experience and increasing sales conversions.
“Costume SuperCenter needs to reach customers around the globe, with
consistent high performance. They realize today’s customer is
increasingly demanding, so any decrease in performance or availability
might affect the bottom line,” said Kirby Wadsworth, CMO at Limelight.
“The choice of the Orchestrate Performance and Cloud Storage services
ensures the highest performance for their website, particularly for
dynamic content. We’re excited to be working closely with Costume
SuperCenter to help them better engage and grow their online audience,
and their overall business.”
