Pingdom's Transaction Monitoring exercises multi-step user flows in a real Chrome browser.
Recorded step-based transactions covering login, signup, search, and checkout replay from global probe servers as often as every five minutes, with alerts firing at the step where the flow breaks.
The product sits in the SolarWinds Pingdom line alongside its uptime and page-speed checks for web teams.
Adds products that compete with one of Transaction Monitoring’s direct competitors but not with Transaction Monitoring itself. They are shaded, and Linked Through names the direct competitor each one competes with.
