55 Distil Networks Testimonials

"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."

"After spending more than a year cultivating our own in-house scraping prevention solution we realized there were well funded scrapers who could adapt faster than we could stop them. The Distil Networks team continually works to ensure that as scrapers change they’re right there changing with them."

"Across all of our 20+ newspaper sites, Distil Networks keeps our content and data safe and improves our content delivery."

"Distil filters through all of our web traffic, ‘distils’ it, cleanses it and makes sure that we don't have to deal with any of the bad bots that try to scrape our sites. It eliminates all the management tasks for us and makes protecting our sites simple."

"With Distil, we can have our cake and eat it, too. We’re protecting our content from thieves and we reduced our infrastructure costs at the same time. For DevOps, this was like pressing the Easy Button."

"If someone scores a goal, we get that information in real time, and it's automated in our backend system, and the actual orders are automated as well, which means that we can operate really, really quickly. And it cost us money to operate those services. What we were finding is, people were using our websites to harvest those odds data with bots and they can use that information to their advantage elsewhere without paying us for the feed.”

"Distil has allowed me to focus somewhere else. It's totally eradicated our bot issues. Sometimes, I forget it's in place because it's doing such a good job."

"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!"

“Using Distil, we proactively defend against bots, and that ends up yielding a total defense posture for both our content and our banner ads. I’d recommend them to any organization that relies on unique content to drive their business.”“Using Distil, we proactively defend against bots, and that ends up yielding a total defense posture for both our content and our banner ads.

"Distil revealed that roughly 30% of our traffic was comprised of bad bots. We’re now blocking over 80% of that, and may decide to get more aggressive with our settings. Distil’s hands-off, proactive approach saves our company two to three man-days per month and is much more effective than the ‘whack-a-mole’ we were playing writing F5 iRules. We’ve also prevented at least three outages, and freed up 25% of our F5 LTM capacity."

"Distil blocked a major bot attack before it ever hit our site, a step above the usual kludgey JavaScript-based bot blocking solutions. Distil is simply the best bot detection and mitigation solution on the market."

"We deal with market research data samples, typically through email-based interviews. Data integrity is critical."

"Distil provides rich information on malicious bot traffic for our video sites to identify fraudulent traffic. Our clients love the results."

"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."

"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."
