Let’s get an overview of the services offered by our Dotcom-Monitor solutions.

Website & Web Application Monitoring

Our Monitoring platform provides 24/7 automated monitoring of your web resources from global monitoring locations, giving you real-time insights into uptime, load speed, and functionality—as experienced by your end users.

Monitor your websites as frequently as every minute to detect performance degradation, downtime, or critical errors before your users notice. If issues occur, you’ll receive instant alerts via multiple channels, helping you respond quickly and minimize impact.

Monitoring spans the following areas:

  • Servers including HTTP/S, email, DNS, VoIP/SIP, and performance counters
  • Network/port availability and performance including SNMP, UDP, DNS, and Ping
  • Website page load speed, including third-party element availability and performance
  • Applications including Flash, AJAX, Silverlight, HTML5, Java Applets, SOAP, and APIs
  • E-Commerce: availability, functionality, and performance of web transactions and web page content

Dotcom-Monitor offers flexible subscription plans for the Monitoring solution that allows you to pick a monitoring frequency the most efficient for your goals, from every three hours to once per minute.

Network Tools

Our Network Tools solution provides on-demand web performance testing of websites, web applications, and APIs. To automate the monitoring process, Network Tools can be configured to start monitoring checks once per day (every 24 hours) automatically.

Network Tools is a good choice if you need to monitor a large number of websites and want to be sure that the target websites are generally online and functioning. However, if you need to receive immediate alert notifications on issues detected while monitoring, it is recommended to use our Monitoring solution instead.

You can subscribe for a free-forever Network Tools package or use a paid account with up to 5,000 tests available per month. Learn more about Network Tools.
