Synthetic Monitoring overview

Note: Uptrends is introducing a new navigation menu and Monitor Editor UI. Your interface may look different from the documentation as we reflect these changes. The documentation accurately explains how the features work, even if your interface looks different.

Uptrends provides detailed insights into the uptime and performance of your websites and services from an end-user perspective. It offers multiple synthetic monitoring options for different scenarios, and Real User Monitoring (RUM) capabilities to capture performance data from actual visitors to your site.

Synthetic Monitoring

Synthetic monitoring uses automated processes to visit websites or make service requests, and verify the responses so you can track uptime and behavior. These tests run around the clock, continuously verifying whether your sites are available, how fast they respond, and if they work as expected.

Uptrends runs these automated checks from its global network of monitoring locations, testing your websites and services 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Uptrends offers four types of synthetic monitors: Transaction, Browser, Uptime, and API.

Credits and pricing

Uptrends uses credits to calculate pricing for different monitoring services. For more information, see Credits.
