VERDICT

Should I use Www8 (www8.gsb.columbia.edu)?

This website uses cookies as well as similar tools and technologies to understand visitors' experiences... - www8.gsb.columbia.edu

Skip. This is Columbia Business School's website — 'www8' is just a numbered server subdomain, not a purchasable product — and relevant evidence is thin, so confidence is low. Prospective students and fund applicants should browse it directly; software buyers should ignore it entirely.

Confidence

Low. Based on ~5 relevant public sources; most scraped sources describe unrelated www8 subdomains (HP, Garmin, NY State), not Columbia.
