Netlify has been successfully deployed by Democracy Works, a nonpartisan nonprofit that builds tools to improve the voting experience in American democracy. The organization's engineering team of 23 people previously struggled with custom website deploys, which were time and resource consuming. However, after discovering Netlify for one of its smaller projects, Ballot Scout, they deployed it for TurboVote, their online tool that sends election reminders to over 7 million people. With Netlify, Democracy Works can reliably host assets during traffic crunch times, test URLs ahead of time, and deploy frontend branches in flight. The integration with Netlify was smooth, the automation was nice, and working with the Netlify team was a pleasant experience. The deployment ensured that Democracy Works could handle big spikes in traffic and better serve its partners and users. Netlify also relieved some pressure on Democracy Works's backend technology by caching requests. Overall, Netlify has enabled Democracy Works to feel confident about handling huge spikes in traffic and take off a lot of their engineering plate.
