BOSTON (PRWEB) OCTOBER 11, 2022 -- Today Checkly Inc., the only company with a synthetic app and API monitoring platform made for developers that bridges the gap between Dev, Ops, and QA, announced that over 600 customers and thousands of developers have adopted its platform to seamlessly integrate with their existing development workflows. The company has surpassed 3.5 Billion checks run by users implementing Checkly's end-to-end monitoring at speed and scale. The company also announced that it is updating the Checkly platform with a host of new product features, including a new Playwright test runner integration, mobile alerting improvements, and general availability of its new GitHub Sync feature to update and control Browser check code.

Demonstrating its ongoing commitment to customer privacy, security, needs for data availability, and responding to growing requests from enterprise customers, the company is also now fully compliant with SOC (System and Organization Controls) 2 Type 1. SOC 2 is widely recognized as one of the most important and rigorous compliance standards related to managing customer data.

“Development teams at companies like Airbus, Vercel, 1Password, Deno, and the Schwarz IT are choosing Checkly because our programmable, monitoring-as-code approach gives developers confidence that issues will be quickly identified,” says Checkly CEO and co-founder Hannes Lenke. “We’ve hit a number of business milestones and doubled-down on support for Playwright, the leading open-source automation framework. We’ve also achieved SOC 2 Type 1 compliance and shipped a number of new product features, all in support of our singular vision of creating the best synthetic app and API monitoring platform for developers.”

• New alerting enhancements provide additional transparency about Checkly alerts, while new mobile improvements optimize the Checkly experience for tablets and smartphones. GitHub Sync—to update and control browser check codes—is now also generally available.
• To better support the needs of enterprise customers, the Checkly platform completed a migration from Heroku to Amazon Web Services (AWS) to benefit from better database scalability, better observability, and full control over cross regional backups for disaster recovery.

"We've been using Checkly's newest features, GitHub Sync and integration with Playwright Test, and we see great value in both," said Eric Matthys, Principal Software Engineer at Plex, Inc. "GitHub Sync lets us remove complexity related to managing Terraform with CI, which previously required an additional service. With Checkly it's much simpler now and there are fewer pieces that contributors need to understand. Checkly's Playwright Test Integration allows us to write our end-to-end tests and run them locally in (almost) the same way as our other tests. We have found the async assertions in particular helpful and valuable to our efforts."
