Review from a verified AWS customer
What is our primary use case?
My main use case for SilverLining.Cloud URL Shortener is working in a development team as a developer, where we have a product that sends out links and messages.
A quick specific example of how I use SilverLining.Cloud URL Shortener in our product is that we have a particular product where we have a background script in Python.
We use the REST API of SilverLining.Cloud URL Shortener to send our actual URL, get it shortened using the REST API, and further send it out to the customers.
What is most valuable?
The best features that SilverLining.Cloud URL Shortener offers have definitely been the REST API to shorten the URLs. It is also highly scalable.
The REST API and key table features of SilverLining.Cloud URL Shortener help my team in practice, as the scalability is something that stands out. We send out up to hundreds of requests per second and get a low latency response, which is really impressive.
SilverLining.Cloud URL Shortener has positively impacted my organization in that it has definitely reduced the errors and improved customer experience. When we did it manually or tried some other things to shorten the URL, there were manual errors that were happening and users were coming back or not reaching the actual URL.
What needs improvement?
SilverLining.Cloud URL Shortener can be improved by having more out-of-the-box dashboards and BI integrations that would help non-technical stakeholders consume analytics more easily.
Additionally, native SDKs and no-code connectors beyond the generic REST integration could lower the integration effort for a broader audience.
