AlertSite Augments International Presence by Adding Four Prominent Cities to Its Global Monitoring Network
New Monitoring Locations in Canada and Europe Enhance Precision and Speed of Customer's Web Site Performance
COCONUT CREEK, Fla., March 20, 2007 - AlertSite, a leading provider of web performance measurement, systems monitoring and security vulnerability scanning services, today announced the addition of Montreal, Vancouver, Amsterdam and Rishon, Israel to its global monitoring network. This expansion increases the total number of global monitoring locations to 30 and extends AlertSite's ability to assist customers in responding accurately and quickly to potential network performance problems that may impact specific regional locations.
AlertSite ensures its customers' web-based services are operational, secure and always running at peak performance by scanning for site vulnerabilities, monitoring uptime, load time and key site applications, as well as providing immediate notification about any performance issues. Tracking performance metrics from multiple locations increases the accuracy with which AlertSite can identify problems with web site functionality and subsequently pinpoint whether they are unique to one customer or symptomatic of a larger issue across a specific geographic region.
"With the addition of these key monitoring sites, our customers benefit from our increased capability to monitor, understand and diagnose core server and application connectivity issues from more locations around the world," said Ken Gross, president and CEO of AlertSite. "It was important to open these new locations because there is a huge international demand for our simplified web and business transaction monitoring service."
AlertSite's DéjàClick is the first inside-the-browser transaction recorder and playback tool that employs TrueUser monitoring to capture web content. It provides a true-to-life web experience that captures the web page content from the perspective of the desktop user and saves time by automating the scripting process used to monitor the performance of web transactions.
90 Degrés Communication Inc., a leading marketing content firm with clients such as VIA Rail Canada and Starwood Hotels & Resorts, is pleased with the results of AlertSite's new monitoring locations. "Since most of our large clients customers extend from Quebec City to Toronto, we have to be able to make sure that the web site is fully operational," said Andre Kunysz Project Manager. "Having AlertSite monitor our service from an international business hub like Montreal gives us the opportunity to best reflect the behavior of our valued customers."
This most recent expansion complements AlertSite's existing monitoring stations in Atlanta; Chicago; Cincinnati; Dallas; Detroit; Miami; Fremont; Los Angeles; New York City; Phoenix; Seattle; St. Louis; Washington, D.C.; Toronto; Brazil; Dublin; Frankfurt; London; Madrid; South Africa; Sydney; Tokyo; Shanghai; Hong Kong; India; and Singapore.
