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 Monitoring™.

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 Monitoring™ solution utilizes a proprietary EveryStep™ Macro Recorder technology. EveryStep™ is a no-hassle macro recorder application, which automatically records “every step” in a user’s experience of a web application. UserView Monitoring™ 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 Monitoring™ offers a simplified, on-demand, and cost-effective approach.”

I used to use absolutely different monitoring services to check them out. I set up website monitoring for my domain from different network monitoring providers. Then i switched my server for 2 hours… And what i got? I will not mention here exact monitoring tools but i can say that only network monitoring tool from Dotcom Monitor gave me the maximum exact report. And while others can sent only emails or sms, Dotcom Monitor rang me by phone to notify that my server was down. No comments more…

Network Monitoring service is my choice
