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.

Our products are shared across different countries with different rules. We use GeoSurf to help log-in in different locations to make tests. It can be used by testers, developers and managers to validate releases or simply check if the apps are working correctly in these locations. The tool is used across all the organisation.

GeoSurf is used by our campaign operations team that manages campaigns for various markets (with multiple advertisers) across the EMEA region. With GeoSurf it's easy to switch your browser to the needed country. This way we were able to tackle geo-settings on creatives, but we also use it for print screens to show the advertiser that the campaign(s) run on preferred inventory.

In addition to adjusting our geo settings, GeoSurf is also used for mobile emulation. With an increasing number of mobile campaigns, it's helpful to easily switch your browser into a 'mobile device' (e.g. Apple iPhone 6).

We use GeoSurf to test our products as if they were accessed by real customers outside of our corporate network. This is vital since our products behave differently based on the user's geolocation.

My company has customers around the world, and I lead a team that places and manages content for websites and mobile apps in 10 different languages in countries from Europe to Latin America. My team relies heavily on GeoSurf to monitor the content we place on those sites, as it is important for us to view the sites as they are seen in the countries where our customers are accessing the content.

We use GeoSurf to simulate a location for development and testing if we need to pretend that we are launching our app for another country to catch some regulation restrictions (if there are any). Also, we need to see if our app can detect the preferred display language from a location. Some country specific features (as built in video streams) need a fake location too.

At Fyber, my team of engineers use GeoSurf to test the features of our ad tech products and simulate their behavior in different world regions. It is useful both for development and problem diagnosis. In a previous role, at mobile search company Quixey, we used GeoSurf as a proxy for web crawlers.

GeoSurf is used here mostly by the marketing department for research and testing purposes. The main issue it addresses is that our company is located outside our main (geographical) interest areas. I personally use GeoSurf to see how our campaigns are being carried out and what our competitors do in our key markets.

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.
