Seamless regional switch improves project efficiency
The primary challenge was not technical but organizational, as teams required more guidance to adopt AWS Global Accelerator effectively. Enhanced documentation with detailed, scenario-specific use cases (e.g., multi-region deployments, gaming, or IoT) would improve onboarding and utilization. A valuable enhancement would be extending traffic weighting capabilities to the regional level, beyond the current endpoint-level weights within endpoint groups. This would enable more granular control over traffic distribution across regions, simplifying blue-green deployments and performance testing. While AWS Global Accelerator now supports AWS CloudFormation for automated deployments, earlier experiences required manual configuration, which was cumbersome. Continued improvements in CloudFormation templates, such as prebuilt examples for common use cases, would streamline setup and enhance infrastructure-as-code adoption.

Works without interruption, scales well, and has perfect uptime
Our website works without interruption almost until late at night, as many students have the opportunity to study in the evening. Most of all, we appreciate the stable and fast work of g-core. Uptime is always perfect. With such a volume of data as we have, failures can occur from time to time. The support solves everything in the shortest possible time. I love that the guys are constantly trying to improve the service. Our online school is expanding every year, and there are no problems that our provider can’t solve. They also have the opportunity to negotiate individual conditions for complex sites.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The AWS Global Accelerator allowed us to migrate from an old to a new load balancer without downtime, which was one of its excellent features."
"Uptime is always perfect."
"We've done a lot of research into CDN providers, and G-Core offers the best service for the lowest cost."
"The support is amazing! They solve the issues on the fly."
"Since transitioning to G-Core, our site has started working much faster, and freezes have stopped. Users are staying on the site longer and visiting more sections. We increased the number of customers by 30 percent in the past six months. This is partially attributable to G-Core services."
"The CDN interface is intuitive and user-friendly, and there are no intrusive ads or upselling additional services. Everything is self-contained, and it's a convenient CDN overall. We also loved that they provided a free trial period. They always seem to do what's best for the consumer and the internet."
 

Cons

"However, responses often lacked practical, real-world insights tailored to our specific needs, limiting their effectiveness."
"I would like to have one optimized report that we could use for our own needs."
"It would be great if there were a section on the provider's website that shows a set of services for a particular business. It would be helpful to have some kind of checklist of services that are suitable for your blog, which are required, and which can be set up later."
"There are some nuances in the tariff configurations that we found confusing. We would like more flexibility in this area."
"Once in the past six months, we got a "site is unavailable" error for a maximum of 20 minutes."
