Queue-it Reviews & Product Details

Queue-it Overview

What is Queue-it?

Queue-it empowers organizations to deliver seamless user experiences and protect their brand reputation by controlling online traffic. Crashes and slowdowns threaten even the biggest of businesses. They impact sales, frustrate visitors, and damage reputation and trust. Traffic management solutions equip brands to protect themselves against the threat of downtime. Queue-it’s cloud-based virtual waiting room lets organizations control web traffic to deliver a fair and frictionless user experience, no matter the demand. It gives organizations peace of mind and confidence on their busiest days, so they can focus on delivering customers and citizens the experience they deserve. Since Queue-it’s first waiting room went live in 2010, over 35 billion users have passed through our system. Today, we have offices in Copenhagen, Minneapolis, and Sydney, and people joining our queues from 172 countries around the globe. When Ticketmaster, Tokyo Metropolitan Government and Dixons Carphone need to manage high-demand sales, they turn to Queue-it. That’s why we’re the top-rated virtual waiting room solution on G2.

Product Description

Queue-it helps in high-demand and limited-supply situations—like sneaker releases, ticket on-sales, or government registrations—that can easily overwhelm a website or app. In these high-demand situations, online visitors are redirected to a customizable waiting room and then throttled back to the website or app. In the case of scheduled sales or registrations, organizations can create a scheduled waiting room that holds early visitors on a countdown page and randomizes them just like a raffle once the sale or registration begins, giving everyone an equal chance. Later visitors are then added to the end of the line on a first-come, first-served basis. Queue-it's virtual waiting room can also guard against traffic overload 24/7, working as a safety net by constantly monitoring traffic inflow and only activating the waiting room when traffic exceeds the configured thresholds. By controlling online traffic, Queue-it's virtual waiting room lets organizations control their online experience. They capture sales, deliver seamless user experiences, ensure fairness, and protect brand reputation.

What do you like best about Queue-it?

We have a queue wrapped around our website at all times and appreciate the security this provides us should there be unexpected/expected surges of traffic to the website.

It has good reporting features and the customer service agents are very responsive and friendly.

We have also had positive feedback from customers that they enjoy being able to see what their place in the queue is, their expected wait time and have the option to receive an email when they reach the front of the queue.

The interface is quite simple, so easy to learn and the documentation provided is extensive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Queue-it?

We have some negative customer feedback about being kicked out of the queue but we suspect this is due to them using multiple tabs/browsers/devices.

Some 'how-to' videos would be good for training as some staff members are visual learners.

We recently ran into an issue where Google could not index one of our pages because there were too many queue re-directs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Queue-it solving and how is that benefiting you?

Maintaining a queue on the website constantly to prevent overloading, especially during busy onsales where we can have upwards of 25k people queuing at once. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Queue-it?

Customer service and response speed is excellent. In a few days we have managed to move the application to the server, the answers to our questions were resolved in a few hours. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Queue-it?

I have no complaints regarding Queue-it's service. The only recommendation would be greater monitoring and proactivity regarding the account. For example, the recommendation to move the application to the server could have been very useful before we encountered the problem in a live event. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Queue-it solving and how is that benefiting you?

In the project I work on we reached high peaks of users connecting at the same time. So that our payment queues do not become saturated, we install queue-it as a traffic control measure and progressive user adjustment when accessing the checkout.

Queue-it's rapid outflow update is key to our business model. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Queue-it?

I like the set it and forget it ness. It really helps give peace of mind when we are having large onsales. You can create a different waitingroom for each onsale or just use the same one thats always running with certain thresholds. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Queue-it?

I wish I could pull more metrics out but thats not what its designed for. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Queue-it solving and how is that benefiting you?

It helps us solve having our website go down from too many users at once. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The support has been outstanding. Very helpful, responsive and approachable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Queue-it?

Rather expensive for incidental use. Very basic customization is not available in the chepatest plan. Client-side integration is not bullet-proof, but server side integration is not possible when using page-caching. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Queue-it solving and how is that benefiting you?

During peak ticket sales one or more of the underlying systems were experiencing hihg load. We were able to succesfully prevent this once we started using Queueu-it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Queue-it?

We have used Queue-it on several occasions for the sale of massive concerts in various Latin American countries, and the product and service have always been up to par and have worked perfectly.

The implementation is very easy, and the usage dashboard is very intuitive.

Having an account manager who speaks Spanish is also a great help. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Queue-it?

The only downside of Queue it may be its price, as it is a tool that has a higher cost than other alternatives. But, in our case, Queue it is a must for AAA events. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Queue-it solving and how is that benefiting you?

One of the big problems for ticketing companies is the sale of events with too much demand. Fans are a very peculiar type of customer, very insistent and intense; especially when thousands are simultaneously fighting to get the front rows of their favorite show.

Queue-it helps us manage high traffic peaks, keeping fans in its virtual queue and letting them through in moderate amounts that our servers can handle without issue.

Another benefit is that Queue It shows fans the waiting time information and their position in the virtual queue, which makes fans more relaxed while waiting their turn, reduces the need to constantly refresh the page, and significantly decreases customer service messages asking when they will be able to make a purchase.

What do you like best about Queue-it?

We use Queue-it for our high profile moments where large groups of people are eager to sign in and get tickets or subscribe for popular workshops, summer camps, etc. Before these were very stressfull times to keep the systems up and running and avoid a stream of complaints towards customer service. Now we prepare the set-up with a waiting queue and both we in the support team as the users are very happy with the stability it provides. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Queue-it?

We activated the queue once for a popular event for our collegues, unfortunately the system thought we were attacked from a single IP address. This was not the case but an understandable safety feature. We were in contact with the Queue-it team and they will provide a solution for next time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Queue-it solving and how is that benefiting you?

Before popular selling moments were very stressfull times to keep the systems up and running and avoid a stream of complaints towards customer service. By limiting the inflow the systems can handle sales without overload. Usually the waiting room is empty in 5 minutes because users can fluently go through the sales process and are offline in 1 minute to make room for others. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Queue-it?

The dashboard is great and simple to use.

The people on the account (Tatiana, Kevin, the designers) are super helpful and supportive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Queue-it?

I wish there was a "content repository" to store pre-worded statements for our dynamic messages and if the service is paused.

When you click on an archived pre-queue to view the traffic data, it should just automatically display for the dates it was active instead of a user having to manually select the dates they remember it being active.

The 60 second delay in the queue kicking in after being activated, which may not be enough time to protect against a sudden spike. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Queue-it solving and how is that benefiting you?

During artist pre-sales we have noticed sharp peaks where the traffic increases rapidly within a few seconds due to high demand. We have put Queue-it in place to protect our infrastructure against these severe traffic spikes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
