$10,000 Challenge to cut response time in half!
$10,000 Challenge to cut response time in half!
August 6, 2009

Response time directly relates to productivity and repeat visitors. Those moments or seconds of waiting are expensive and potentially deadly for business when the competition is faster.

The Assertion

ShofarNexus™ software and methodology produces the shortest response times in the Microsoft Server market (We anticipate ShofarEmbedded™ to exceed all servers once it is ready).

The Challenge

We are so confident in ShofarNexus™ that we are making the following offer:

ShofarNexus™ will redesign part or all of an existing application and cut response time at least in half or we will give a 90% discount on your cost, up to $10,000.

The Details

Your application must be implemented using Microsoft IIS.

Your page response time is typically above 10mS on at least modest servers.

The site must be viewable on the web or you must provide us access to your intranet site via the web.

We will reengineer part, or all, of your site with the understanding that the layout and workflow may change to improve performance and usability.

You agree to our standard consulting terms.

We will give a 90% discount on the bill rate for time spent on dynamically generated pages that do not have their response time reduced by at least 50% on at least two out of the three measurements below.

You also agree that we may publish measurements of the results. You may choose if those results are identified or anonymous.

The offer concludes when either $10,000 of billing time has been credited because we have not improved performance, or $10,000 has been billed where we have met the performance goals.

This offer expires when our time is exhausted.

Start TimeThe time from a recycle of the application pool in IIS to the first request delivery
10 RequestsThe average response time of the first ten requests to the same page after an IIS application pool reset
1000 RequestsThe average response time of the first 1,000 requests to the same page after an IIS application pool reset
