Case Study: Galati Yacht Sales achieves predictable website performance and brand protection with DataDome

Galati Yacht Sales restores website performance with DataDome

Galati Yacht Sales, a Florida-based yacht brokerage founded in 1970, faced aggressive scraping of its yacht listings that caused unpredictable traffic spikes and slowed the site—problems their WAF couldn’t stop. To address this, Galati Yacht Sales trialed and then implemented the DataDome bot protection solution to stop non-human traffic undermining site performance and brand integrity.

DataDome’s hands-on onboarding and quick activation (enabled within hours during a critical week and later implemented as a five-minute Cloudflare app) confirmed that a significant portion of traffic was bots and immediately restored predictable website performance. Using DataDome’s blocking and custom-rule capabilities, Galati Yacht Sales regained a usable search experience, protected its listings and reputation, and reduced monitoring to weekly reports—delivering measurable uptime and, as the team reports, peace of mind.
