Online businesses can use this tool to mitigate losses from website downtime or interruptions of their online transaction services and processes

SAN JOSE, Calif., Dec 08, 2011 (BUSINESS WIRE) — Monitis(TM), the award-winning provider of a leading 100% cloud-based all-in-one monitoring platform, and part of the GFI Software family, today announced new Synthetic End-User Transaction Monitoring functionality within its free Monitor.us(TM) tool. This new capability enables online businesses to identify and address potential problems in their online business processes before they can have a negative impact on user experience and online revenue generation. Monitor.us helps reduce the cost of downtime that can result in thousands of dollars in missed revenue, which is especially critical during the holiday online shopping season.

Online businesses, particularly retailers, know the cost of website downtime and how this can affect their bottom line and their brand reputation. With multi-step processes such as shopping carts, registration forms, product searches and secure logins, businesses rely on a complex combination of multiple servers and Web services to carry out their day-to-day operations. If a retailer’s shopping cart process is broken and customers cannot complete the transaction to finalize purchases, that revenue is lost and is likely go to their competitors.

The Monitor.us Synthetic Transaction Monitoring tool checks the functionality of web applications on a regular basis by simulating an end user’s interaction with the website according to a pre-defined script. It monitors the entire online user experience using real browsers, and if any part of the process fails, it will take a snapshot of the error screen automatically, sending an alert to IT administrators and enabling them to fix the application before it impacts business.

Hovhannes Avoyan, General Manager at Monitis said, “Transaction Monitoring tools are typically very expensive products, only affordable for large organisations. However, the holiday shopping season is often just as critical to smaller online retailers who need to know their online stores are performing optimally. Monitis is committed to providing competitively priced and even free tools to businesses so they don’t miss out on sales this holiday season because their website was down.”

Transaction Monitoring within the Monitor.us platform is the world’s first free tool of its kind and enables one check per day, which is generally adequate for small businesses. Monitor.us users will also receive a 25% discount when upgrading to the premium Monitis Transaction Monitoring solution, which offers round-the-clock protection.

São Paulo, July 25, 2011– Monitis, the award-winning provider of the world’s first all-in-one cloud-based service that combines web site uptime, server and application monitoring, today announced the deployment of a new monitoring node in Brazil.

This will provide companies whose business relies on the Web, a complete and accurate performance picture from the perspective of both Brazilian and international web site visitors.

The addition of this node brings the total number of Monitis monitoring nodes operating around the world to 16.  Monitis’ nodes across the US, Canada, Europe, Asia, Australia and South America monitor clients’ key IT processes every 60 seconds – offering fast and frequent checks, as well as alert notifications into the health of servers, networks, applications, events, cloud storage facilities, cloud platforms, websites, transactions and other processes.

“We have been using Monitis service for more than two years now,” said Oliver Kuchendorf from Internet-Arts.  “It is very economical, easy to set up and start using.  Most importantly, it provides us a proactive way of detecting performance issues with the web sites we monitor, so we can provide high quality and uninterrupted service to our customers.  We are very excited about Monitis adding a new node in Brazil.  It shows commitment to businesses in our country, enabling us to detect and fix web site performance issues that our Brazilian customers may be experiencing even more accurately and quickly.”

“The addition of a new monitoring node in Brazil will enable us to expand our level of service to businesses with customers in Brazil,” said Monitis Founder and CEO Hovhannes Avoyan. “What really sets us apart from the competition is the frequency of monitoring. If a typical service offers monitoring “once a minute from 100 nodes”, in reality it means each node is activated every 100 minutes. In the current business environment, companies can’t afford such delays before discovering slowdowns or disruptions at a particular destination. With Monitis service, customers may choose one-minute monitoring intervals from all our monitoring locations simultaneously.”

In addition to offering clients a global network of monitoring stations, Monitis also enables IT managers to create their own customized monitoring locations using a small footprint agent.

“As more companies come to rely on proactive monitoring and instant notifications of IT problems, Monitis is committed to continuously expanding the network of monitoring nodes and raising the service bar higher,” added Avoyan.

The new monitoring location is provided by Ananke.

press release

SAN JOSÉ, CA., June 27, 2011 –  Any system administrator worth his or her salt knows that data is the oxygen of the modern age.

To keep the oxygen flowing Monitis Inc., the award-winning provider of the world’s first all-in-one systems monitoring platform, announces that users can now monitor their MySQL-operated database servers on Monitis’s free monitoring service – Monitor.Us. The new hosted MySQL monitoring service is available immediately.

“Our new MySQL monitoring service ensures high availability of database servers and performs a host of tasks to ensure MySQL is running smoothly,” said Monitis Founder and CEO Hovhannes Avoyan. “And because MySQL is the most popular database in use today, perhaps never before can so many system administrators get so much for free.”

The service works with a tiny Linux software agent that can monitor inside an organization’s firewall and distributed systems. The Monitor.Us agent connects to a local or remote database, collects a variety of health and performance metrics and submits the information to the Monitor.Us platform. Users can view the information in real-time graphics on a web-based dashboard. Users can also set up notifications (should their database go down or pass a certain level of access volume) based on client-defined thresholds and rules.

Some metrics tracked and reported on by Monitor.Us’s free MySQL service — which can be set up in minutes — include:

• Database size
• Resource utilization
• Analysis of responsiveness/latency
• Analysis of throughput
• Database usage
• Scalability

These metrics can also be studied alongside other server health monitoring information that Monitor.Us offers, for example, CPU and RAM.

“The metrics for any database revolve around responsiveness of the system, throughput and scalability,” said Avoyan. “Our MySQL database monitoring service offers these and many more kinds of metrics, and thus assists with all kinds of user goals.

“For example, for multiple users, the measuring of throughput metrics is key, while monitoring response time and latency is just what system administrators need for heavy job execution,” continued Avoyan. “For resource planning, the scalability metrics — such as database size, load, concurrent connections, threads and locks — would be top-of-the list.”

With Monitor.Us’s free MySQL service, administrators can monitor both raw and calculated MySQL performance data.

“No matter which metric you’re looking at, the bottom line is that our hosted MySQL health and peformance monitoring is a tremendously convenient new tool to help system administrators not only quickly react to issues arising, but also to prevent them in the first place,” said Avoyan.

Web System Administrators Can Instantly Check Their Networks, Implement Quick Fixes

Press Release

SAN JOSÉ, CA., June 3, 2011 – Monitis, the award-winning provider of the world’s first all-in-one systems monitoring cloudware, has launched a new free tool, Monitis Global Traceroute, which will enable system administrators and webmasters to instantly trace the Internet routes, or Traceroute, their networks’ server simultaneously from multiple locations.

“We’re driven to keep taking the pressure off busy Web System Administrators so that they can save time from typical IT maintenance chores and, instead, focus on more strategic issues,” said Monitis Founder and CEO Hovhannes Avoyan. “Monitis Global Traceroute puts another valuable, free tool for instant network checking in sysadmins’ hands.”

Monitis Global Traceroute, which will be available to all visitors of the Monitis website (http://traceroute.monitis.com), is a network diagnostic tool that is used to determine the “path” and transit times that packets take from one IP address to another, simultaneously from multiple global locations up to user servers.

Traceroute tools are often used for network troubleshooting. Monitis Global Traceroute can help identify routing issues or misconfigured firewalls that may be blocking ICMP/ping signals to a site. Monitis Global Traceroute can also be used by penetration testers to research network infrastructure and IP ranges around a given host. In case of multiple mirroring servers, system administrators can trace each mirror to determine which is faster for each location.

With Monitis Global Traceroute, no registration is required. System administrators need only enter the IP address or domain name of the server that they want to trace. Importantly, Monitis can perform Traceroute from its multiple testing locations across the U.S., Europe and Asia, giving systems management specialists a comprehensive picture of server and network availability from the end-user perspective. The information can be viewed in a graph or table but also via Google map.

“It’s a simple, instant server connectivity check,” noted Avoyan. “And with the provided information, system administrators and webmasters can easily track down and fix possible network issues.”

Monitis already provides no-cost services such as instant remote ping, instant full-page check and instant http check to users – with no obligation or commitment required to sign up for Monitis’ premium services.

First Free All-in-One System Monitoring from the Cloud

For Immediate Release

SAN JOSÉ, CA, May 2, 2011 – Mon.itor.Us today announced that it has become the only cloud-based systems monitoring solution to offer monitoring of organizations’ internal servers at no cost. The company, which is the free monitoring arm of Monitis, Inc., has launched no-cost internal server and network monitoring as a service.

Since 2005 Mon.itor.Us has offered users – ranging from entrepreneurs, small and mid-sized businesses, large enterprises, government agencies, schools and non-profits – free external website monitoring.

“The growing popularity of Mon.itor.us proves there is a high level of demand among the world’s companies for free cloud-based website monitoring to easily and accurately check their web servers’ uptime and end-user experience, as well as to ensure that all runs smoothly,” said Monitis Founder and CEO Hovhannes Avoyan, who noted that Mon.itor.Us users now number 70,000-plus. “Our outstanding growth in transactions and users shows that today’s enterprises (small or large) want it all – reliable on-demand monitoring tools that are hassle-free to set up and use and are thus more cost-efficient than even free monitoring software.”

Mon.itor.Us, celebrating its fifth anniversary, extends its free monitoring as a service offering to include systems and network performance monitoring. Mon.itor.Us has significantly enhanced its monitoring services by offering free 24/7 monitoring of internal servers’ CPUs, memory, system processes, hard disk space, as well as corporate Intranet applications via on-demand, hosted monitoring – freeing system administrators from worries about poor performance of their IT infrastructure, or worse, failures.

The best monitoring practice is to place monitoring server outside of a customer’s mission-critical production data center, to ensure robust notification regardless of the client’s infrastructure – even if all networks are down. But to implement that architecture, sysadmins need to do massive amount of work to adjust firewalls and manage distributed environments.

“Now consider hosted server monitoring,” Avoyan said. “Having a single small-footprint agent within the firewall and using HTTP(s) protocol for communication eliminates the need for system administrators to alter their firewall just so monitoring software can work properly. We enforce the best monitoring architecture at no dollar and time cost, and the whole setup may take just minutes with hosted monitoring solutions.

The main benefit of hosted monitoring is that is that it frees sysadmins from lengthy set up, configuration and continual maintenance of software-based monitoring systems. The benefits are hard to ignore especially in case of distributed infrastructure and when robust notification of outages and failures is pivotal.

“We are the first and only cloud-based monitoring solution to offer free all-in-one server monitoring,” added Avoyan.

SAN JOSÉ, CA., APRIL 28, 2011 – Yes, there is a free lunch! Monitis, the award-winning provider of the world’s first all-in-one systems monitoring cloudware, said today it has launched Mon.itor.Us Mobile, a mobile Android application.

“Mon.itor.Us Mobile is so convenient for system administrators and webmasters,” said Monitis Founder and CEO Hovhannes Avoyan. “Now they can instantly perform their systems monitoring tasks from anywhere.

Avoyan added that the mobile app is available for download in Android Market. “Mon.itor.Us Mobile will boost productivity and give system administrators and webmasters freedom and flexibility.”

SAN JOSÉ, CA., April 26, 2011– Monitis, the award-winning provider of the world’s first all-in-one monitoring cloudware, today announced the deployment of two new monitoring nodes in Japan. The monitoring stations are located in Tokyo – safe from the devastation of the recent earthquake and tsunami in Northeastern Japan.

This brings to 15 the total number of Monitis monitoring nodes operating around the world. Monitis’s stations across the U.S., Europe, Asia, Australia and Central America monitor clients’ key IT processes every 60 seconds – offering fast and frequent checks simultaneously (and alert notifications, if necessary) into the health of servers, networks, applications, events, cloud storage facilities, cloud platforms, websites, transactions and other processes.

“We were very careful in establishing our new monitoring nodes in Japan because we realize how sensitive conditions in the country are now,” said Monitis Founder and CEO Hovhannes Avoyan. “Our primary goal is to expand the services to our customers who are providing applications to their clients in Japan, and as part of that goal, we wanted to ensure that we have enough fault tolerance by running the Japan checkpoint from more than one location.

Elsewhere in Asia, Monitis also has two monitoring checkpoints – in Singapore and China.

“Our frequency of monitoring sets us apart from the competition, which typically only monitors once a minute from a single location, not from all nodes simultaneously,” added Avoyan. “That means you could sign up with a monitoring service that offers 100 nodes, but in reality that only means each one is activated once every 100 minutes. That’s just too much time to let go by before discovering your site traffic or speed is slow in a particular destination.”

With Monitis’s service, customers may choose one-minute monitoring intervals from all its monitoring locations simultaneously – providing a truly global and up-to-the-minute picture of website, server and network performance.

In addition to offering clients a global network of monitoring stations, Monitis also enables IT managers to create their own customized monitoring locations using a small footprint agent.

“As more companies come to rely on comprehensive monitoring and instant notifications of IT problems, Monitis will continue to expand our network of monitoring nodes and keep raising the service bar higher,” added Avoyan.
