Wayzata, Minnesota – June 2, 2010 – Dotcom-Monitor, a leading provider of network monitoring and analysis solutions, today announced the immediate availability of the most cost-effective, advanced web application monitoring tool on the market – UserView Monitoringâ„¢.

UserView Monitoring™ is a proactive, regular browser-based web application monitoring tool, providing real-time monitoring, alerts, and reports on a user’s experience of web application performance and component connectivity. This regular browser-based monitoring tool for web applications/online transaction deployments continues Dotcom-Monitor’s focus on providing cost-effective, external monitoring solutions to administrators for online retailers, interactive agencies, and other industries focused on providing the highest quality of user experience.

Dotcom-Monitor browser-based UserView Monitoringâ„¢ solution utilizes a proprietary EveryStepâ„¢ Macro Recorder technology. EveryStepâ„¢ is a no-hassle macro recorder application, which automatically records “every step” in a user’s experience of a web application. UserView Monitoringâ„¢ is used to monitor the user’s experience of online shopping carts, login processes, etc… essentially every step in a user’s experience of a website or web application.

“As more organizations rely on interactive systems, it is important for user experience monitoring to proactively mimic the external end-user’s perspective, rather than only relying on passive internal statistical systems,” said Vadim Mazo, founder and chief technical officer of Dotcom-Monitor. “Moreover, much of the marketplace for “user experience” monitoring has been asking for an advanced, but cost-effective alternative. Vendors currently offering browser-based monitoring have a high price point, complicated evaluation/sales requirements, pre-payment pricing, and demand long-term contracts. UserView Monitoringâ„¢ offers a simplified, on-demand, and cost-effective approach.”
