"One web scraper was doing anything he could to get airfares, and despite our initial attempts with many other solutions to stop him, he could still get back into the site within 24 hours. But when we implemented Distil, he simply gave up."
"The most exciting feature of Distil is definitely the peace of mind it gives you, its not really feature its more of a result, but when you are focused on other things you don't want to spend time playing IP whack-a-mole."
"Some bot operators interject scripts into their code to mimic human behavior. Others will circumvent the web product page and go directly to the API behind it. Before Distil, bot blocking was eating up 20% of team resources, only 30% effective, and impacting the team’s quality of life. Distil lets us granularly control questionable traffic or simply block it all."
"Distil is intelligently updating with new bot definitions. So, as a solutions architect, I don't need to worry about it. Bots never see my site and never steal my data and they never place a load on my servers."
"In the last five months, we’ve hit our look-to-book targets and have not had to worry about the possibility of overage charges. That’s the first time in three years we’ve been able to make our look-to-book ratio."
"Sophisticated bots are constantly attacking companies like ours. The Distil Analyst Managed Services team has spent days counteracting particular bots --- which is much better than us having to do that on our own."
"The Distil service seemed like the stuff of magic. It has proven to be so."
"If someone comes in and steals our data through scraping, we don’t know exactly what they do with the data. They would probably resell it to their own customers, so they would make a profit on our data—and they don’t pay a cent to us to do that. Of course, that’s totally illegal. The big value of the Distil software is that it allows us to block these people, so we don’t lose our data or the revenue from selling it."
"We wanted something that would run unattended and automatically stop the bots. We were astounded by the amount bad bots that are available o the Internet and try to access our datas. Distil just works."
“None of the other solutions was able to block bots as well as Distil does. Distil leverages a strong network effect, which is really powerful.”
“At a reasonable monthly cost, Distil Networks keeps the bad guys off of our website and lets the true consumer make use of our site. Additionally, the filtering on our website is not only useful for our own site’s performance, but the data gathered from blocking the ‘bad guys’ increases security for the entire customer community.”
"None of the other solutions was able to block bots as well as Distil does. Distil leverages a strong network effect, which is really powerful."
"Connecting the dots with data is essential to developing allaround protection. That’s a really important deliverable we’re getting from Distil Networks."
"With Distil, we increased our uptime from 99.6 to 99.9%, reduced infrastructure costs and eliminated costly bot-driven API calls. Bots be gone!"
“Fighting scrapers and hackers is a cold war so we need to be able to leverage accurate, real-time threat intelligence. The alliance of Distil-protected sites constitutes a highly effective nexus of knowledge and power to defeat our shared enemy--malicious bots.”
