WatchMouse Introduces Real Browser Monitoring in Over 30 Countries

AMSTERDAM, Feb. 1, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- 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."

WatchMouse Real Browser Monitoring features include:

• Real browser performance metrics
• Java script error reporting
• Loading of third-party content
• Timed screenshots of a website loading in the browser
• Waterfall charts of timing of all embedded elements in a page

Previously, websites served mostly static content, and there was very little client-side code execution in the browser. Today, however, advanced features are found on even simple websites, and the most engaging web applications rely on the browser to download, render, redisplay content, and execute complex client side code.

A free 30-day trial including Real Browser Monitoring is available on the WatchMouse website.
