This is configured on infrastructure where we receive synthetic alerts when something goes wrong in infrastructure environment
  • Synthetic alerts triggered
  • Helpful to rectifying the actual issue

  • It seems to fine at the moment.
  • We can work to enhance the graphical view to be more effective.
On infrastructure related alters, it is helpful to catch the actual issue

We use Apica Synthetic for many of our customers and it is very easy to set up and manage. We use [Apica Synthetic] for monitoring of both public and internal websites with simple URL checks and more advanced scenario checks. It is easy to see what has gone wrong with a check and [also] compare checks.

We also use it to send out monthly SLA reports to the customers.
  • Modern and easy GUI.
  • Very simple to set up and manage.
  • Excellent support from Apica.
  • APICA can help with complex checks and [is] very flexible.
  • Some improvement with user management could be done.
  • Having more than 2 weeks of detailed check information.
All http checks with Apica Synthetic [make] it the natural choice. When it comes to other types of checks, Apica Synthetic has a solution but there are [also] some other tools you can use instead.

Good for simple synthetic checks. Needs some updates.

We had a gap in our monitoring along the lines of synthetic-user monitoring. We needed consistent availability monitoring of our web applications.
  • It is an easy-to-use product and you can build out checks with Firefox Selenium IDE (no longer supported). A good measure of availability.
  • It's very clunky. Infrastructure is large and very difficult to upgrade.
  • SaaS and On-premise versions are different. There is an LDAP integration but users can only be assigned to one group (i.e. department). If you are in 2 departments, you need 2 separate logins.
  • It filled a gap in monitoring for us, but we're looking to move on.
It's a good starter solution, but it was difficult to maintain. Often, the vendor wanted to use us as a guinea pig for upgrades and then writing the upgrade document based on what they found/broke/etc with our environment. I prefer late adopter.
