Synthetics has been amazing. We've been getting an incredible amount of data from the simple browser module. After just about 3-4 hours of data collection, we were able to identify and fix an issue that was doubling our initial home page load time. I wouldn't trade synthetics for anything—not even cheese!Kevin Klein VP of Engineering at BloomThat
We've been using it to see trending data and help make rollback decisions. This tool will allow us to have similar or better monitoring than what we currently have, with an easy to use interface and better alerting emails. We're really excited about adding this new weapon to our monitoring tool-belt.Todd Ross Sr. Engineering Manager, Quality Assurance
