World’s First Performance Monitoring of Internet Connectivity and APIs in Native Apps

SANTA CLARA, Calif. – (VELOCITY CONFERENCE) – June 14, 2011 – WatchMouse, a global industry leader in self-service website and application performance monitoring, today announced the introduction of its new In-App Monitoring (IAM) service, a pioneering technique for measuring and monitoring network performance in mobile apps. The WatchMouse IAM provides an open source library that developers can incorporate in their app, using simple, low-impact changes in the code to instruct which web service calls to monitor. IAM then collects performance data for the app publisher while ensuring privacy for the end-user. The new IAM service currently supports iOS applications; support for Android OS applications is planned for the near future.

New Monitoring Service Verifies Website Performance from a True End-User Perspective using Real Browsers

AMSTERDAM, Feb. 1, 2011 -- WatchMouse, a global industry leader in self-service website and application performance monitoring, today announced Real Browser Monitoring, a new addition to their monitoring services. Real Browser Monitoring verifies a site's performance as perceived by an end-user using a real browser. Real Browser Monitoring verifies and benchmarks a website, and offers insight above and beyond regular website monitoring tools that synthetically emulate browsers to check a site's availability and performance. WatchMouse Real Browser Monitoring is the only real browser monitoring product on the market that currently supports Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome, and Safari profiles, and monitors from 31 countries around the world.

"Monitoring the performance of web applications and websites globally is a must today, in order to ensure customers are having the best possible experience when interacting with sites that use JavaScript, CSS, AJAX, and media files extensively," stated Mark Pors, CTO and co-founder of WatchMouse. "As more sites rely on features in modern browsers, the methods used to benchmark their performance must adapt. Regular monitoring has its place, but Real Browser Monitoring is needed to get the complete picture of how today's complicated web pages load from various countries around the world."
