Case Study: DNSFilter achieves 360° network visibility and reduced downtime with PerfOps

DNSfilter - Customer Case Study

DNSFilter, a global DNS filtering provider running an anycast BGP network across more than 48 locations and serving roughly 14,000 companies, needed constant, DNS‑specific monitoring to maintain near‑100% uptime and quickly detect sinkholes or performance regressions. DNSFilter chose PerfOps’ monitoring and testing solution—including its dashboard, DNS testing and analytics—because it is tailor‑made for DNS/CDN networks and offers interactive, drill‑down reporting that gives more context than generic tools.

PerfOps implemented 360° monitoring, instantaneous alerts, interactive reporting and public-facing analytics (DNSPerf), enabling DNSFilter to compare all anycast servers, drill into labeled metrics, and run tests before deploying changes. As a result, DNSFilter gained real‑time visibility to identify and debug inconsistencies, improve network speed for end users, and significantly reduce the risk of downtime while sharing live performance data with customers and prospects via PerfOps’ tools.
