Overall Satisfaction with GeoSurf

Our monetization team uses Geosurf to take screenshots for international advertising campaigns and also for troubleshooting purposes.
  • It's very easy and super convenient to use, since it's easily accessible via the toolbar menu of my browser and I can turn it on and off without any issues.
  • The additional mobile emulator is a nice feature, it's more reliable than any methods I have to test mobile otherwise.
  • It's great at what it does. It does one thing and it does it very well and is very reliable.
  • I like the tool, but if I needed to cut costs this is probably the first thing that would go. It's nice to have and it works great, but most things we spend money on have much broader capabilities.
  • We had some issues where all of our users we using a single sign on and there were some surprise overage fees. It would be great if there were automated alerts or usage reports to see who is using the tool, and how often (which may also help justify the expense).
  • We use it only for the primary use case of proxying location.
  • Prior Experience with the Product
  • Existing Relationship with the Vendor
Our company has had a relationship with Geosurf for many years. Having come into my role mid-contract, I've decided to continue working with Geosurf based on it's usefulness and the existing relationship.
  • GeoEdge
Prior to my work at this company, I was a GeoEdge customer. Overall, I the products are largely the same in ease of use, reliability and features. I don't have a strong preference for either product. If I were to find myself at another company looking for this type of tool, I'd evaluate both again and let the deciding factor be cost because there is such little differentiation between the two.
If I had a colleague only looking to proxy location, this is hands down the tool I'd recommend. The primary reason I'm giving it a 7 out of 10 is due to the fact that (1) I consider this a nice to have tool, not a must have tool and (2) it doesn't do a wider range of things.
