SolarWinds launches the industry’s first affordably-priced SaaS (Software as-a Service)-like product to monitor web transactions from cloud-based locations.
SeUM web console has wizards to guide the creation of Amazon EC2 Cloud Player instances.
SolarWinds Synthetic End User Monitor (SeUM) v.1.5 works to streamline the process of monitoring websites and web based applications from the cloud, offering users the ability to monitor their web based services from various geographical locations around the globe.
Pricing and Availability
SolarWinds Synthetic End User Monitor is available now; pricing starts at US$1,995 for five transaction recordings with the first year of maintenance included.
Monitoring unlimited transaction recordings from unlimited locations is US$28,995 with no requirement for professional services, onsite training or recurring monthly subscription fees.
Leveraging the cloud allows users to inexpensively monitor performance and availability from locations beyond their data center, central office, or remote office locations to where their mobile work force, home offices, or customers are located.
SeUM allows system administrators and application support staff to monitor response time proactively for multi-step web transactions.
The latest version of SeUM introduces the Cloud Player Portal that allows users to deploy transaction players easily to Amazon EC2.
New Features in v. 1.5
- Cloud Player Portal: Easily deploys transaction players to Amazon EC2 to enable web transaction monitoring from cloud-based locations and does not require users to pay subscription fees.
- Multi-Tenant UI: Monitors website and web application performance for large deployments or in MSP environments.
- Rich Content Recording and Playback: Record and playback dynamic web pages to include support for Flash and Silverlight; also validates the existence or absence of text and other website content.
- Firewall-Friendly Communication: Transaction players make their monitoring data available for polling from the SeUM server, eliminating any need to open in-bound Firewall connections.
