DéjàClick – Saved one leading Internet company
$100,000 in lost sales!

iHerb.com, one of the nation's top e-retailers according to the Internet Retailer's Top 500 Guide to Retail Web Sites, credits AlertSite's DéjàClick business transaction monitor with saving them an estimated $100,000, by detecting a problem with their Web site's shopping cart function.

According to iHerb.com's Chief Information Officer Donald Naber, "If iHerb had still been using its own internal monitoring system, it would have taken over an hour to recognize and fix the problem. But thanks to the instant alert iHerb received from AlertSite, the problem was resolved within fifteen minutes, saving about $100,000 in what could have been lost sales."

New for DéjàClick - DéjàNotes!

AlertSite is proud to announce the release of DéjàNotes, a powerful new enhancement of DéjàClick.

DéjàNotes is a handy, efficient tool for adding comments,

instructions, and detailed messages to DéjàClick scripts. The "notes" appear as an overlay on the screen, popping up at user-specified times during script replays.

The content of notes can range from simple comments, to directions, to images, hyperlinks, and even videos.

Users designate when notes will appear within a script, where each note will appear on the screen, the length of each note's duration on-screen, and the size, shape, and color of each note.

DéjàNotes is a versatile, easy-to-use, highly effective way to communicate critical information to other DéjàClick users.

Your DéjàClick toolbar now has a "Notes" button for creating DéjàNotes. Try it!

The Dashboard - a new component on your control panel

AlertSite has added a new component to your control panel – the dashboard. The dashboard provides a visually compelling perspective and overview of your Web site's performance,

with three panels that combine to create a bird's eye view of your monitored devices, along with the capacity to drill down to performance details.

The My Alerts panel provides a timeline view of notifications triggered by each device. From the My Alerts panel you can find out when a notification went out, why the notification was triggered, who was notified, and what the notification was. You can also simply click and view the actual notifications sent to each recipient.

The My Devices panel displays a list of all monitored devices. The list shows the type of device, a graph of the device's availability over the last 24 hours, and the device's most recent availability status and response time. You can also graph any device's performance and quickly jump to its Device Status page.

The My Performance panel gives you a graphical representation of how each device has performed over a selected time frame (31 days, 14 days, 7 days, and 24 hours). This can be viewed as a line graph, bar graph, or a scatter diagram. (The availability graph in the My Performance panel displays device availability over the same time periods.)

Your control panel now has the dashboard - try it!

Is your Web site ready for more hits?

Can your Web site handle peak demand? Ever wonder how your site responds when thousands of users are accessing it at the same time?

AlertSite's Web Load Test simulates from 250 up to 10,000 simultaneous site users, and quantifies how much traffic your site can actually handle.

The Web Load Test final assessment report provides a comprehensive breakdown of your Web site's page presentation times, and transaction response times. The report also includes detailed recommendations for eliminating bottlenecks and fine tuning your applications to accommodate heavier traffic.

And it's all done on our end; you don't have to install any hardware or software.
