Catchpoint announced a new suite of web performance capabilities to its Internet Performance Monitoring (IPM) platform. By incorporating WebPageTest’s features, the gold-standard for web performance optimization, into its platform, Catchpoint now offers the most comprehensive view of web performance, covering everything from front-end code to end-user experience including detailed views into the Internet Stack, from thousands of locations around the world, all within a single, enterprise-ready dashboard. WebPageTest has been the trusted tool for web performance experts and top online retailers worldwide. It provides crucial insights to optimize website speed, SEO rankings, user experience, and conversion rates. WebPageTest also offers detailed diagnostics on a page's performance, measuring across all major browsers, device types, and network conditions. Earlier this year, Catchpoint announced the plans to incorporate WebPageTest into its Platform of AI-powered Internet Performance Monitoring solutions which includes Real User Monitoring (RUM), Internet Synthetics, BGP monitoring, SSO, Security, SLO monitoring, and the largest Global Observability Network. Catchpoint’s enterprise customers will now be able to benefit from WebPageTest features such as instant testing with any device, browser, and connection speed, and no-code experiments to test changes on live sites without deploying code. With WebPageTest on Catchpoint’s IPM Platform, there is no need to switch between platforms to address front-end issues. This update optimizes performance by creating a seamless experience for all users in one dedicated platform with data from multiple sources to get the most comprehensive view of performance. Users can start on a free starter plan and grow into a complete enterprise solution.
