CD Fulfillment

The time and coordination it takes to send CDs out to prospects can tax your resources. The manpower needed to manage CD production, manage information flow from lead capture to mailing generation and the actual fulfillment to get those CDs out the door to your customers can draw your attention away from your core activities. Using TestDrive for CD fulfillment will let you focus on turning those prospects into sales.

Runaware can either warehouse quantities of CDs you already have produced, or can work with you to have CDs created to your standards.

Downloads

As today’s software becomes more complex, download sizes can increase exponentially. Hosting these online downloads from your own domain can prove taxing. Investment in bandwidth and infrastructure to provide a fast and reliable download experience for your prospects could prove to be a large budget line item, especially when it’s outside the focus of your company’s goals.

Hosting your software downloads with TestDrive will take the load off your infrastructure and reliance on your Information Systems team. With competitive pricing, hosted downloads keep your costs down and free internal resources to focus on more important tasks.

Benefits of hosted downloads

Download files are hosted at data centers worldwide on a global platform of over 20,000 servers on 1,000 networks in 72 countries – guaranteeing a high quality experience
Users connect to the data center closest to their geographical location
One software download link is provided and the TestDrive service automatically redirects the user to the closest download site
Built-in scalability – any traffic surge can be handled without degrading the service level
Content is compressed across its platform all the way to the last step so customers on lower bandwidth will get a great experience the same as those on broadband. Most servers cannot accomplish this because they have no control over the transaction once it leaves the origin server
TestDrive hosted downloads can provide end-to-end high speed and quality content delivery from the origin, through the web, to the end user
Detailed reporting provides traffic numbers, URL reporting and visitor reporting.
