Tip of the Day - Beyond Alerts

Alerts are one of the main reasons why we monitor. Having a robust Alerting Tool can ensure proactive notification of issues and allows for quick access to the data required to troubleshoot the issue(s). This video provides insight into the Catchpoint Alert Monitoring solution, showing you what to do after the Alert along with some very helpful links to make sure you've configured your Alerts so they provide the information you need.

Tip of the Day - Synthetic Monitoring the Catchpoint way

Not all synthetic monitoring solutions are created equal. A truly proactive synthetic monitoring platform runs tests from the networks and locations where end users are located, and emulates the same path that the end users take to access websites and applications. Synthetic tests that are run from cloud providers miss many critical issues that affect the customer experience, and often lead to a painfully slow troubleshooting process because they don't capture all the components in the application delivery chain. Learn how Catchpoint's industry-leading synthetic monitoring infrastructure provides easy and effective monitoring from the outside-in for a truly comprehensive Digital Experience Monitoring (DEM) solution.

Tip of the Day - SSL Certificates

Expired SSL certificates are one of the most overlooked causes of performance and reachability problems, as keeping track of all of them and their expiration dates is a long and challenging task. See how Catchpoint's Digitial Experience Montoring (DEM) platform can help you esnure that your SSL certificates remain valid by alerting you whenever their expiration date is approaching.

Tip of the Day - SLA Monitoring

SLAs are all about tracking accountability, and monitoring for those agreements must be done from a reliable third-party source. Trusting your vendors to report on their own SLAs is like asking a fox to guard the henhouse. Learn how Catchpoint enables you to track and alert on specific SLA metrics by measuring from the end user's perspective, allowing you to hold your vendors accountable no matter where your end users are located.

Benchmarking End User Experience with Web Vitals

Most business verticals are now digitized. Consumers prefer online shopping, rather than going to a store. Within a few clicks, you can purchase any item of your choice and get it delivered to your doorstep. One of the key reasons for online businesses gaining popularity is their time-saving nature. So, the main goal of any website should be to deliver the best end-user experience.

Monitoring APIs for Better Performance

In this week’s Tip Tuesday, we are focusing on API monitoring. APIs are a set of rules or standards, which extend the functionality of an application, allowing different applications and/or programs to interact. These little helpers are built with flexibility and ease of integration in mind. APIs simplify programming, allowing developers to build complex applications without having to worry about usability.
