Fast + Secure + Reliable = GeoSurf
GeoSurf is an essential add-on that is used across our whole organization. Since we are an international company with many localized labels and regulations to comply with, GeoSurf enables us to simulate location-restricted journeys and verify the user experiences.
- Simple and intuitive interface, very easy to switch between proxies.
- There is an Android app that can be used with the same account.
- More locations or alternative servers can always be arranged, if need be.
- There is no iOS app which is a big gap and we need an alternative product for such devices.
- Our subscriptions is with shared and limited bandwidth, some users forget to turn off GeoSurf when they are done with the proxy thus incurring unnecessary costs. Would be good to have some reality checks implemented to avoid unintended long session.
- The Android interface is little outdated, although it's still simple and quick to use. I'd prefer slightly more modern design, including usage statistics.

GeoSurf for affiliate account manager
I mainly use it to see how my affiliates' sites appear under various keywords in a certain geo and negotiate the deal between us and the affiliate partly based on the site's ranking. It is used across the whole organization even though other departments use it to a lesser extent.
- We can check how a website looks on different mobile devices.
- Wide geo coverage.
- Sometimes it freezes. Cannot log in.

GeoSurf Review
In our department GeoSurf is used as a VPN to test foreign user accounts for localization purposes. This helps ease the localization process as many of our products are released worldwide in many different countries. It is currently only used by one department but that could change in the future, as our department heads see changes in the industry.
- Unlimited IP Switching.
- Instant Setup and Easy Accessibility with Tool Bar Interface.
- Extension and Plug-in Convenience.
- Expensive.
- Slow for some countries.
- Really only fit for large to mid sized organizations.

Surfing the Geo with GeoSurf
We use Geosurf for 2 main purposes:
- Emulate mobile environment
- Emulate different geo locations
- Ease of mobile emulation
- Ease of geo location changes
- I don't really like the part where all the tabs are refreshed when i initiate emulation to either mobile or geo location. I tend to have multiple tabs opened and this is really frustrating.
- I noticed I tend to get logged out using the Chrome toolbar. Is there really a need to log a user out from the toolbar?
