Observability Architect at a financial services firm with 10,001+ employees
Proactive synthetic monitoring has reduced major incidents and provides global user experience insights
One thing that is not available is the multi-factor authentication feature concerning monitoring any applications. If an application depends upon MFA for its login flow, Catchpoint doesn't have the ability to bypass or monitor that flow for multi-factor authentication. This is one area where I would like to see improvement in the tool because many applications nowadays use multi-factor authentication, and Catchpoint does lag a bit in providing the end-to-end synthetic observability for applications dependent on MFA. This is one of the major areas needing improvement. Otherwise, Catchpoint has been one of the greatest tools in the synthetic monitoring or digital experience monitoring space, and I don't see anything else right now, but MFA is something that certainly needs some improvement.

It consolidates all logs into one place and provides required features and functionalities
Every once in a while, our IBM cloud operational implementation gets behind. Sometimes, when we have a customer event, we do not get access to the latest logs for about 30 minutes, particularly for the sites that are heavily utilized. This is clearly not good. It is impossible to do RCA when you can't look at the logs that pertain to the time period in which the event occurred. It could be more of an operational problem than a feature problem. I don't have visibility about whether it is a LogDNA issue or just an operational issue.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Catchpoint helped us establish that something is in a provider network, so we could tell our customers to check their internet provider because the traffic is not getting to us. You need to be gentle when you tell them that, but the fact that we could do it was crucial."
"The capacity to identify those issues regionally, nationally, and globally was an unbelievable return on our investment."
"During business hours, it has worked absolutely fine without any issues."
"Catchpoint has positively impacted my organization because we have supported multiple customers and handled many escalations before they became critical issues."
"Catchpoint is very flexible and also provides logs for troubleshooting purposes. It helps us fix issues within the SLAs signed with the end users. The tool is easy to learn."
"Overall, Catchpoint has been a strong platform for us to provide proactive digital experience monitoring."
"Catchpoint is actually catching issues before customers see them, since it's checking the sites every five minutes or even every minute, via the APIs."
"Catchpoint's customer service and support are valuable."
"With LogDNA, which brings all the logs together in an interleaved stream, it allows us to take a transaction and relate it to other contextual events making the gathering of evidence for auditors and our internal RCA much more productive."
"The solution aggregates all event streams, so that if there are any issues, it's all in the same interface."
"We haven't had anything yet that we couldn't do through LogDNA."
"LogDNA consolidates all logs into one place, which is super valuable."
 

Cons

"I believe the connection with Snowflake, AWS, and other new upcoming AI tools should be easier, especially the configuration with AI tools and LLMs."
"There are essentially a lot of quotas. Nobody wants to sit and manually create monitors for someone who uses synthetic monitoring."
"One thing that is not available is the multi-factor authentication feature concerning monitoring any applications."
"It would be great if Catchpoint could incorporate its alerting system instead of relying on separate tools like ServiceNow."
"I would love to have RAM monitoring available in Catchpoint, which would be a nice feature for both synthetic and real user monitoring, and it would be an amazing tool that I would love to have, complementing each other."
"Catchpoint can be improved by focusing solely on network monitoring."
"Documentation and online indexing are awful but have been improved recently."
"The only thing that occasionally bugs me about Catchpoint is some aspects of the UI."
"Scalability could be improved; we are using it through the IBM cloud deployment and on some of the data centers that are very heavily used, there is a significant lag in the event stream, sometimes 10, 15 minutes behind, which makes the RCA impossible."
"No ability to encapsulate a query or a filter, and communicate or share that among the team."
"Every once in a while, our IBM cloud operational implementation gets behind. Sometimes, when we have a customer event, we do not get access to the latest logs for about 30 minutes, particularly for the sites that are heavily utilized. This is clearly not good. It is impossible to RCA when you can't look at the logs that pertain to the time period in which the event occurred. It could be more of an operational problem than a feature problem. I don't have visibility about whether it is a LogDNA issue or just an operational issue."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution's pricing varies based on services and licensing models."
"In terms of licensing fees, I believe they were slightly higher."
"The pricing is based on consumption and works on a point scale. For example, let's say I want to look at www.google.com, and I'm going to test it to see if it's there. It will bring back all this data that tells me how long it took to connect and how long it took to get the first byte. It will list all the resources on the page, showing that they all work and there are no broken links. It brings that data back. That test has an assigned point value depending on what you decide to extract from that test. If all I do is check to see whether it's available, it might be one point. I don't know the exact point values off-hand. This is just an example."
"The price and licensing are very, very high. They have to come down on the pricing to match with the industry standard."
"The solution's pricing is comparable to the last tool we were using."
