AlertSite Adds Five Cities To Its Global Monitoring Network
Expansion Marks Key Growth Milestone While Enhancing Precision and Speed of Regional Web Site Performance Monitoring COCONUT CREEK, Fla., July 17, 2006 - AlertSite, a leading provider of Web performance measurement, systems monitoring and security vulnerability scanning services, today announced the addition of St. Louis, Mo.; Tokyo, Japan; Dublin, Ireland; Porto Alegre, Brazil; and Stellenbosch, South Africa to its global monitoring network. This five-city expansion increases the total number of global monitoring locations to 25 and extends AlertSite's ability to assist customers in responding accurately and quickly to potential network performance problems that may impact specific regional locations. It also marks an important growth milestone for AlertSite, which the company reached earlier than anticipated. AlertSite insures its customers' Web-based services are always available and running at peak performance by assessing site vulnerabilities, monitoring uptime, load time and key site applications, as well as providing immediate notification about any performance issues. Tracking performance metrics from multiple locations increases the accuracy with which AlertSite can identify problems with Web site functionality and subsequently pinpoint whether they are unique to one customer or symptomatic of a larger issue across a specific geographic region. "We continue to aggressively grow our global monitoring network," said Ken Gross, president and CEO of AlertSite. "With the addition of these key monitoring sites, our customers will benefit from our increased capability to monitor, understand and diagnose core server and application connectivity issues from more locations around the world." LinkShare Corporation, a leading provider of technology solutions to track, manage, and analyze the performance of sales, marketing, and business development initiatives and an AlertSite customer, says that the new monitoring locations will result in even more precise monitoring of its overseas services, especially those located in and around Tokyo, the headquarters of LinkShare's parent company, Rakuten, one of the world's largest and most comprehensive Internet service companies. "The performance metrics we receive from AlertSite are an invaluable and essential part of our business," said Jonathan Levine, chief technology officer, LinkShare Corporation. "AlertSite's expansion to new areas throughout the world, including Japan, which is an important region for us to monitor, is indicative of AlertSite's ongoing commitment to enhance the data it provides so that we can more effectively address any problems and lessen the impact on our customers." This most recent expansion complements AlertSite's existing monitoring stations in Boca Raton, Fla.; Atlanta; Chicago; Dallas; New York City; Washington, D.C.; Seattle; Los Angeles; Fremont, Calif.; Canada; the United Kingdom; Spain; Germany; Hong Kong and Shanghai, China; Singapore and Australia.
