Within two years of launching in 2012, LoveCrafts had customers in 100 countries around the world. The company’s model revolved around building communities of makers. As these communities expanded and orders for craft supplies and patterns grew with them, LoveCrafts’ infrastructure began to give them performance problems. They came to us in 2014 to get to the bottom of the issues they were having.
What Lovecrafts said…
"What Scale Factory has designed provides an excellent base architecture for a variety of workloads. Most of the components have easy to understand, ready to use configurations that can get you up and running in a very short time.
Scale Factory’s support since we migrated to [our new platform] has been good. They’ve helped us make things more reliable. Our incident call-outs are at an all time low! This has meant we’ve been able to focus on new development and improvements with a small team - we’ve been calling this 'Lean DevOps'.I would definitely recommend considering Scale Factory to any company looking at starting afresh or to improve their infrastructure."

We wouldn’t be where we are now without The Scale Factory’s help.
They worked closely with our development and operations teams to make our applications cloud ready, no mean feat given the wide range of technologies in use. Our new platform gives us confidence to push forward with scaling up the ecommerce side of the business and adding new community features. That confidence is important to us - we are a fast-moving company and it’s great not having any headaches around infrastructure.
We’re really happy that we’ve got The Scale Factory working with us, they’re a great team, and they help us work more efficiently.
