Website monitoring helps us assess the quality of the web hosting company and the server uptime. It also helps us take decision whether to stick to the same hosting company or move onto another. On my previous posts, i’ve updated a few free monitoring services and we will be continuing this trend as and when i find a few reliable ones.
Today, I’ll be recommending Alertfox, a free monitoring service at 1 hour interval.
Monitor even complicated steps, (e.g., complete check out process, not just store uptime) , only AlertFox can monitor the function and performance of sites that are based on any of the major rich internet applications (RIA), including ActiveX, AJAX, Flash, Flex, complex HTML and Silverlight technology. AlertFox also helps SaaS users monitor their provider’s reliability.
As the first service that can monitor web applications with Flash and Silverlight applets, AlertFox is able to monitor sites like YouTube or Google Docs that previously were not candidates for these types of services. Furthermore, this monitoring runs directly in the web browser, thereby monitoring the true user experience. AlertFox constantly monitors web applications, alerting owners to problems that earlier generations of monitoring services would have overlooked.
Because AlertFox is created using the simple and user-friendly iMacros technology, users can create their own transaction monitoring scripts in minutes through a user-friendly add-on for the Firefox and Internet Explorer browser.
