Website Monitoring - Detect Problems Before Your Users Do
- It's simple: problems with your web service have direct impact on whether your visitors/customers will stay or not. Detecting such issues quickly is vital for keeping their impact low and your customer satisfaction high.
- AlertFox Web Monitoring its just about that: we check your site 24/7 in regular intervals. You'll receive a mail or an SMS as soon as a problem is detected.
Monitoring Functionality - Not Just Technical Parameters
- Classic web monitoring focusses on technical parameters such as:
- Is the web server up and running?
- Does the domain name resolve correctly via DNS?
AlertFox supports classical tests. However, classic monitoring has its limitations. - Successful classic tests do not necessarily mean your site is working properly.
Monitoring functionality is key:
- Can users add items to their virtual shopping cart?
- Does the user receive the right result when running a certain query?
- Are images presented in the right location, and at the right time?
- Does credit card payment work?
AlertFox supports functionality tests (also called "Transaction Monitoring"). - Classic web monitoring is simply blind
to modern web deesign components such as:
up-to-date web design which includes
- Complex AJAX scripting
- Flash
- Java
- Silverlight
AlertFox supports them all.
How Does AlertFox Provide This In-Depth Monitoring?
- AlertFox interacts with your site just as your users do. It does not simulate web browsing, but runs real web browser instances (Internet Explorer and Firefox) on real operating systems.
- This way, AlertFox is not restricted to the data that is passed between site and
browser, but has access to how that data actually
appears in the browser.
Fine-Tuned Notifications For Quick Response
- You know best who is able to fix a certain feature of your web service
most efficiently. Therefore, AlertFox allows
you to assign a specific
mail or SMS contacts to each sensor.
For example, if your credit card payment is broken
then way, e.g. your backend crew can be
notified and respond.
If a built-in search box returns nonsense,
then your DB administrators may need to take
action.
- You know best about the vital parts of your web app. Let AlertFox monitor them closely (sending a message on every outage) while allowing other parts (e.g. third party scripts) to fail once in a while without an alarm being raised - until it fails too many times consecutively.
Monitoring Long Term Trends - Daily, Weekly, Monthly and Custom Reports
- Quite often, you are not only interested in responding to emergencies,
but in how stable your service is over time. Examples
include detecting
regressions like certain updates that slow
down your site or even break
it; and for detecting load problems as the popularity of your
site grows.
- For analyzing a specific time frame, use our custom reporting tool.
- For continuous comparison, receive weekly or monthly reports by email,
