How Overload.su attracted 20,000+ clients within its first year

How Overload.su attracted 20,000+ clients within its first year 

Established in August 2024 by Jordan McRae, Overload.su is a stress-testing service provider that delivers realistic high-load simulations on a global scale, servicing clients from all over the world. In less than a year, the company managed to get over 20,000 customers, carrying out over 50,000 tests daily.

Starting out small, the company has increased its capacity fivefold over the first four months, achieving leading positions in the industry and aiming to expand further by adding new high-end tariffs for willing clients. 

The reason behind Overload.su’s rapid growth is simple — the team is committed to eventually becoming the #1 stress testing company in the niche and puts in enormous effort to make it happen.  

“We are highly motivated by our retention rates — we still service clients who chose to work with us when Overload.su had only just started its journey, and that means a lot to us. Our goal is to provide high-quality service to even more companies who care about their security, and we will increase our capacity as much as possible to achieve it,” says Jordan McRae, CEO of Overload.su.

What does Overload.su have to offer?

To ensure that it carves a unique niche in the market, Overload.su relies on advanced testing approaches like high-frequency packet analysis for network evaluation, optimized throughput testing for system efficiency, and high-quality defense assessment methods. 

The platform can reproduce HTTP, HTTPS, WebSocket, and TCP/UDP traffic at both Layer 4 and Layer 7, guaranteeing that clients will get comprehensive and highly accurate results that will enable them to make informed decisions in the future. 

The team is proud to acknowledge that currently, Overload.su is one of the few companies in the market that offers realistic stress testing conditions to help clients assess their security in the proper environment.

The team offers multiple paid stress test options with different tariff plans to make its services as accessible and inclusive as possible. 

“While we have high capacities, we understand that smaller websites also become victims of cyber attacks, and the companies that own them are typically far less protected than large-scale enterprises. We provide our services to every business that feels like they should increase their security, and are extremely flexible when it comes to providing personalized services based on specific requirements,” says Jordan McRae.

Although most of the clients Overload.su works with are prominent IT businesses, the team specifies that its services aren’t limited to a specific industry: “Cybersecurity is everyone’s concern”.

“It has become a common idea that protecting your website is unnecessary in the grand scheme of things — with so many websites all around the world, why would your business ever become a target? In reality, once you do find yourself attacked and have no prior experience on how to handle it, you realize your mistake, although by then it is already too late to do anything about it. One of our goals is to highlight the importance of protecting your website from threats like that beforehand,” says McRae.
