New Monitoring from Sydney
and Hong Kong Provide Additional Internet Perspective
Boca Raton, FL - (June
18, 2002) - AlertSite,
a diverse web monitoring service tailored to
meet the needs of all companies with a web presence,
today announced the addition of two monitoring
stations in Sydney, Australia, and Hong Kong,
China. Used to detect possible hackers, disruption
of service and slow response time, AlertSite
now offers seven geographically diverse monitoring
stations to screen sites from a worldwide perspective.
The new stations complement AlertSite's existing
ones in Florida, Maryland, California, the United
Kingdom and China.
"Without a cost-effective,
reliable external monitoring site, our business
would be severely affected," said Paul
Hardwick, CTO of RecruitASP. "We use AlertSite
because we can monitor web site availability
from where our customers are - on the Internet,
and where we are - in Australia and the United
Kingdom."
IT Managers prefer a local
view to ensure neighboring customers are enjoying
a satisfactory web experience. Web sites seeking
customers or associates in Australia or Hong
Kong will now gain a regional perspective of
their site's performance. The new monitoring
station is beneficial for both regional and
non-regional based organizations.
"Adding these two new
international monitoring stations is in align
with our expansion plans," said Ken Gross,
co-founder and CEO of AlertSite. "Our goal
is to ensure that global companies from every
corner of the world have a localized view of
their web site."
AlertSite customers can utilize
the Sydney and Hong Kong locations as part the
of the company's exclusive "MultiPOP"
service. Before alerting users of a problem,
the MultiPOP system verifies the error with
one or more diverse geographic stations. This
verification reduces the number of messages
a company receives for isolated Internet outages,
allowing the company to focus on problems directly
related to the site.
Monthly service runs $24.95
- $250.00 based on monitoring intervals and
features. Additional services and features available.
A free trial period is offered to new subscribers.
