AlertSite Launches Advanced Business and Technical Benchmarks with Market Index Comparisons
COCONUT CREEK, Fla., June 6, 2007 -AlertSite, a leading provider of web performance measurement, systems monitoring and security vulnerability scanning services, introduced three products which provide different perspectives on web performance benchmarks: Business and Technical Benchmarks and the Market Index. Designed for both the general public and customers, these benchmarks feature head-to-head company comparisons as well as overall market analysis.
"It's a powerful and easy-to-use method for companies to determine how their web sites stack up against competitors and various indices," said Ken Gross, president and CEO of AlertSite. "In the world of e-business, topflight performance leads to higher customer conversions and higher revenues, so it's important to systematically compare the performance of your site."
AlertSite's Business Benchmarks monitor the performance of popular industry web sites and calculate industry averages to provide a standard to gauge web site performance. Using metrics such as web page response time and availability, AlertSite's Business Benchmarks produce both a tabular and graphic representation of web site performance and thus an accurate indication of end-user satisfaction.
Unlike most monitoring systems, AlertSite's Business Benchmarks offer monitoring based on its proprietary TrueUser(tm) technology which monitors from the user perspective instead of from the network or server perspective. "The ability to create transaction scripts for rich Internet applications (RIAs), as well as monitoring from worldwide locations, allows AlertSite to generate complex benchmarks for dynamic web content built on Flash, AJAX, Java and other technologies," said James Chard, VP of Business Development.
AlertSite's Technical Benchmarks provide clients the ability to measure their site's performance against other leading web sites using metrics such as: DNS time; connect time; redirect time; content length; and total response time.
AlertSite's Market Index compares popular industry web sites and calculates industry averages providing a standard to gauge web site performance. Released weekly, and available to the public on AlertSite.com, this data is essential to companies, analysts and managers who have a critical need-to-know about Internet performance.
Industries currently benchmarked by AlertSite's Market Index include:
- Computers
- Financial Services
- Information Services
- Manufacturing
- Retail
- Telecommunications
