If your site’s offline, you’ll lose new customers and frustrate existing ones. But you won’t know about it, until someone takes the time to mention it on social networks or you happen to discover it yourself. By then, the downtime — or perhaps just slowdowns — have already cost you business. That’s where Webmon, our sponsor this week, comes in.
Webmon is a real-time monitoring service that can monitor everything about your site. It monitors most web protocols, including HTTP, DNS, SMTP, TCP & ICMP based internet facing destinations for Uptime & Availability from the outside looking in. If the online service is down or in a bad state you get notified via email and sms as well as through multi-stage escalations (stage 1 – Sys Admin, stage 2 – Manager, stage 3 Director, and so on). Webmon lets you build custom triggers for thresholds, too.
You can create dashboards to see how your services compare to each other or to other sites Globally. This also allows you to look at Service Level Objectives. It also goes far into Multi-Step HTTP Transaction Monitoring for things like authentication forms and shopping carts. And if you’re curious, you can even dig into how Webmon works. Whatever you need monitored, Webmon is the tool you need to do it all, in realtime.
