    If you need to gauge whether your site is up or down, then Neustar will give you exactly what you are looking for. However, if you need more granularity for specific application or sub-systems and their functionality, this product will need to be subsidized with other applications that provide more data or information on how individual components or systems are working.

    • It allows access to a history of checks, how much time they took, and if any errors were detected.
    • It can alert several people, or many in a group, for information related to the application availability.
    • When drilling down into the check, the logs can pinpoint the exact time and code events and how long each step took to respond.

    Cons
    Embrace
    • The interface has some confusing points, for instance aggregation setting (percentiles, median) is misleading, and doesn't do anything in some cases
    • Some additional statistical tools would super charge the charts and alerts: moving average, some more useful trend lines
    • The performance charts are amazing to compare many values (from different pages, multiple metrics) and find correlations. But the charts are barely usable when many metrics are shown (one cannot tell a line from the other). A simple UI improvement there could supercharge this use case

    • The interface can be buggy.
    • We have experienced false positives of a system outage that was not accurate.
    • It's not a true measure of system performance or uptime, but simply judges up or down from a holistic view.

    SpeedCurve actually uses many of those standard tests, and stores the information from test runs indefinitely. This is the game changer.

    To be honest, I am not certain why this product was initially chosen over other products. It was being used when I started working at a new job. I was trained on its use and focused on tracking issues when an alert was given. There are many products that can be used for monitoring site uptime. Neustar definitely has its uses for monitoring if a site is up or down, but its lack of granularity can turn some away.

    • Our company at one time gauged overall system uptime using Neustar WebMetrics to provide this data
    • Due to the limitations with the applications ability to show system functionality and uptime we have begun using other methods for determining system uptime for our customers.
    • The interface can be a bit tricky to understand during first use. There is somewhat of a learning curve.
