New Independent Research Reveals Netlify Delivers a 151% ROI

SAN FRANCISCO, January 18, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — Netlify, the most popular way to build, deploy and scale modern web applications, today announced the results of a new Forrester Consulting study, The Total Economic Impact™ Of Netlify, which quantifies the total economic impact ( TEI) from Netlify and identifies the specific benefits the platform provides to thousands of customers worldwide. The study found that an organization using Netlify to build, deploy, and scale modern web applications benefited from approximately $85,000 in savings, a Net Present Value (NPV) of $1.48 million and a return on investment (ROI) of 151% over three years.
Hiring software developers is more expensive than ever, and highly skilled web developers are increasingly hard to find and expensive to retain. The Forrester study found that because Netlify is optimized for all developers, the customer can tap into a larger pool of talent, reducing contract labor costs by 53%. Netlify’s platform also helps improve team efficiency, saving the company’s developer team 800 hours a year. Businesses and developers benefit from Netlify’s unique capabilities by providing an inclusive and efficient development experience, which means businesses are better equipped to attract and retain talent.
To conduct the study, Forrester interviewed decision makers at a Netlify customer organization to understand the benefits, costs, and risks of using the platform. “Netlify is a big enabler of success,” noted one interviewee, vice president of digital experiences. After implementing Netlify, customer decision makers found:
- Increased web project launch speed by over 89%
- Increased site traffic by 10% due to faster site speed and improved site performance
- Higher customer conversion rate thanks to 3 to 4 times more A/B tests
Creating web projects with the previous solution required developer expertise which was paramount. After moving to a flexible, modern web architecture and the Netlify platform, they hired developers with less specialized skills to do the equivalent work within the organization. The VP of Digital Experience Platforms interviewed notes that this change has allowed them to hire from a much broader talent pool: “All developers need to know how to use Jamstack and deploy to Netlify is [HTML, CSS, and JavaScript] – so [hiring developers] it’s like going from having to hire board-certified surgeons to being able to hire anyone fresh out of medical school.”
“As Jamstack becomes the main house among experienced and new web developers, creating an exceptional developer experience with the right tools and resources is more important than ever,” said Matt Biilmann, CEO of Netlify. “Netlify enables happier and more efficient teams. It’s the platform developers choose to build the future of the modern web.”
