SaaS SMB Web Testing and Monitoring Software

Written by

So, we’re starting to evaluate upgrading our in-house web testing and monitoring software to a commercial solution (we use several free and open source products now). Here’s what we’re interested in from a single provider:

  • Pinging a variety of ports and servers from different locations in the world
  • Browser emulation with pre-defined scripts and paths
  • Checking of SSL certs, domain names, etc
  • Web services (REST) testing
  • Web services API for us to inferface with
  • Priced under $1,000/mo

We’re looking for recommendations and best practices. What do you recommend?

    Have you tried Scout? http://www.scoutapp.com

    It’s supposed to be awesome, and it’s a Charles Quinn Production 🙂

      Thanks Mike. It looks really good for the monitoring component but doesn’t have much on the testing side of things. Maybe we just need to get two separate solutions.
