What is Queue-Fair?

A virtual waiting room serves as an intermediary page that prevents visitors from overwhelming busy websites, guiding them back to the site at a manageable rate while ensuring optimal performance and user experience.

This system allows websites to effectively handle sudden surges in traffic without risk of crashing, which also eliminates the need for constantly running additional servers when demand is low, contributing to a more sustainable approach to web management.

Moreover, effective virtual waiting rooms prioritize fairness by returning visitors in the order they arrived, while also keeping them updated on their status and estimated wait times.

Experiencing a website crash can be detrimental to any business, especially during high-demand events, as it not only harms server functionality but can also tarnish the company's reputation.

By maintaining a seamless branding experience, businesses can safeguard their customers' trust and loyalty.

Our innovative and patented virtual waiting room technology not only underscores the value of fairness but also enhances the entire customer journey through a fully customized branded experience.

    Great customer service and flexible pricing

    Date: Mar 17 2025
    Summary

    The customer support is astonishing friendly and fast. The pricing is flexible so we only pay for the months we need.

    Positive

    We use Queue-Fair to protect the website during the signup events of my clients. They've helped us with the integration and there is also plenty of technical documentation. We've changed from another queue-service to Queue-fair because of their security options that allow us force users to only use one device during the subscription.

    Negative

    So far we haven't run into problems the customer support wasn't able to resolve.

    Perfect queue system

    Date: Feb 05 2025
    Summary

    Very happy to have discovered this product because otherwise a custom development would have been necessary and the main bottle neck is the high amount of request and the server capabilities,

    Very easy to configure and integrate with online process for registration in our University. Can configure messages, logos and background colors to adapt to it.

    Negative

    I haven't found anything to include as a "cons" because our process is easy to implement and include the queue in it.

    I’m very happy with Queue-Fair

    Date: Jan 22 2025
    Summary

    I would like to express my sincere gratitude for Queue-Fair platform, as it has been instrumental to our success. When we first launched our application, it unfortunately crashed within 30 minutes due to an overwhelming number of accesses, which overloaded the server’s memory, CPU, and maxed out our database server.

    However, during our second launch, the safeguard and hold queue proved to be an invaluable features, allowing us to maintain much better control over the server’s memory and CPU usage. This functionality was a critical factor in our success.

    Positive

    I’m very happy with Queue-Fair—it has been an excellent solution for us! Queue-Fair's SafeGuard and Queue Hold proved to be invaluable features, allowing us to maintain much better control over the server’s memory and CPU usage. This functionality was a critical factor in the success of our busy enrollment period. I am also grateful to the Queue-Fair support team for all the assistance they provided during the onboarding and set-up process - it was great!

    Negative

    I don't find cons to use Queue-Fair to my project.

    We're very satisfied with Queue-Fair, which has enabled us to offer a smooth, bug-free experience during our peak periods on our site.

    A fabulous virtual waiting room solution with an amazing support team.

    Date: Feb 26 2024
    Summary

    Queue-Fair was really successful, it works really well. Support has been brilliant - every question has been answered super quickly. There are lots of events coming up where we want to use Queue-Fair too.

    Positive

    Queue-Fair is seamless - really easy to set up and configure. For the limited quantity stock we want to sell - and not oversell - the customer experience is completely improved. No more site slow downs or trouble adding to baskets. Perfect. Queue-Fair meant we felt like we were in control on our key trading day Black Friday - and knowing how many people were arriving at the site each minute was really useful too. The business really likes it.

    Negative

    To date there is nothing that jumps out as needing improvement.

    Date: Dec 16 2024
    Summary

    Overall the experience of using Queue-Fair us very very good, they delivered an product that did exactly what we wanted and needed, and they ensured that our webpage didn't crash during peak on Black Friday. We would've lost a lot of sales without Queue-Fair

    Positive

    Queue-Fair is very easy to setup and just worked without any complicated setup and difficulties - even though our website is quite complicated and very deeply cached.
    They did also translate the queue page to our language and made a very professional looking queue for us - support was fast, polite and lovely to deal with.

    We will for sure use Queue-Fair in the future - highly recommended

    Negative

    The only small negative point we have is that the smallest package they offer is 3 months while we only need this queue for 24 hours.

    Date: Apr 15 2024
    Summary

    From our first meeting to actually seeing the queue implementation in action, we encountered no issues. Everything has been working flawlessly, and in the event that something goes wrong, support replies extremely fast.

    Positive

    Prior to Queue-Fair, we had never used a queuing system before.

    The steps to get up and running were far easier than expected, and the support has been phenomenal. Every tweak needed has been done almost immediately.

    Regarding implementation and integration, the same can be said. The documentation is very clear and concise, and it was fully functional after just a few days of testing.

    While the queue was running, no issues were detected whatsoever.

    Overall, it's the perfect solution for us.

    Negative

    Everything has been excellent so far, no comment on this part.

    The back office panel has many options to customize everything and give you every option you could need.

    Negative
