Push it!

Headquartered in New York, NY, Boxcar has sent over 700 million notifications to iPhones and Macs  around the world. Want to know the moment someone mentions you on Twitter or a friend checks in on Foursquare? Boxcar handles it all. With integrations to tons of services it allows you to read notifications where and when you want them.

Mission Critical Metrics
Needless to say, when you're growing fast tracking and communicating operational metrics is vitally important - this is where Geckoboard comes in.

"Being able to insightfully see where we're at for the day compared to the previous day or week is ultra important", says Jonathan George, CEO and founder.

"Geckoboard enables us to keep an eye on mission-critical metrics, as well as providing an early warning system for both positive and negative events."

Specifically they use Geckoboard to give a real-time breakdown of the overall state and health of Boxcar on a real-time basis including core operational metrics such as:

• New user signups
• New services
• Number of pushes

They're currently accessing Geckoboard from their laptops, iPhones and iPad and will soon have a big screen in the office dedicated to running Geckoboard to give everyone in the office access to their real-time operational stats.
