Why you need Internet Performance Monitoring (IPM)

A few decades ago, monitoring your application was simple—everything ran on-premises, and performance issues were easier to pinpoint. But today, applications are built on globally distributed services, running across internal and external systems in the cloud, all connected through the Internet. In a world where the Internet is now your network, traditional APM (Application Performance Monitoring) isn’t enough. It only focuses on code and infrastructure, leaving critical blind spots that impact performance, availability, and user experience.

War rooms? Finger-pointing? We can help you.

Say goodbye to late-night firefighting and endless finger-pointing. Explore how Catchpoint helps eliminate the need for “war rooms” by giving teams the visibility and insight they need to detect, diagnose, and resolve internet performance issues—before they impact users. Learn how Internet Performance Monitoring (IPM) empowers IT, SRE, and DevOps teams to: Pinpoint root causes across the entire internet stack Collaborate effectively across teams and vendors Proactively prevent outages and performance degradation Replace reactive chaos with data-driven confidence.

How to find Network Visibility Gaps: Strategies to Ensure Resilience and Performance

As IT infrastructures grow more complex, visibility and resilience have never been more critical. With hybrid IT, remote workforces, and distributed services, your network extends far beyond the data center or cloud—it spans the internet. Traditional monitoring tools leave blind spots that impact user experience and lead to costly downtime. To stay ahead, modern network performance monitoring (NPM) must evolve.

The Power of Over 3000 Intelligent Observability Agents

Catchpoint has officially crossed a major milestone: over 3,000 intelligent agents now power our Global Agent Network. This isn’t just a big number. It underscores our commitment to helping our users monitor what matters, from where it matters most: the end user. With agents deployed across 105 countries, 346 cities, and every layer of the Internet stack, Catchpoint now offers the broadest and deepest visibility into user experience available today.

Why Internet Performance Monitoring is Non-Negotiable for Today's Websites and Apps

IT organizations are challenged with too many war rooms where the best people in the team waste time looking for the root cause of an issue. It’s not like we don’t have enough tools or that we are not leveraging AI. Why is everything ‘green’ while users are reporting issues? Are we simply looking in the wrong place?

Monitoring in the Age of Complexity: 5 Assumptions CIOs Need to Rethink

In 2025, the average enterprise juggles over 150 SaaS applications, hybrid cloud infrastructures, and a workforce that expects seamless digital experiences—yet most CIOs still rely on monitoring strategies built for the data center era. The result? A $1.5 trillion annual hit to global GDP from downtime and performance lags, according to recent industry estimates. The problem isn’t the tools—it’s the thinking behind them.

Critical Requirements for Modern API Monitoring

Enterprises lose millions annually due to API outages and performance degradation. Modern observability strategies are crucial to mitigate these risks. Today, almost every system is dependent on APIs. Data integration, authentication, payment processing, and many other functions rely on multiple reliable and performant APIs. Banks around the world, for example, have adopted the Open Banking API for payments, credit scoring, lending origination, fraud detection, and lots more.
