What it is
Catchpoint Internet Performance Monitoring helps digital enterprises identify and resolve performance issues across networks, websites, applications, and APIs. It combines monitoring agents, analytics, and dashboards, with more than 3,000 agents across backbone, broadband, cloud, and wireless vantage points, including enterprise agents inside customer networks. The platform brings together synthetic tests, real user monitoring, network traces, OpenTelemetry, uptime, and other telemetry to detect anomalies and locate root causes. Monitoring options include BGP and endpoint monitoring, tracing, and WebPageTest. Teams can monitor employee experience, internal enterprise networks, and cloud and edge performance as well as websites and APIs. Analytics include adaptive baselines, event correlation, multidimensional queries, and AI-assisted insights. REST APIs, webhooks, OpenTelemetry support, and integrations connect its data with monitoring stacks and business systems. Deployment is hybrid; synthetic checks and topology maps are listed. The paid plan uses points purchased for the contract lifetime, with volume discounts by tier, but no price is listed. Catchpoint was founded in 2008 and is headquartered in New York City.
