End-user Application Monitoring
The Challenge of Delivering Quality Mobile Applications
Delivering mobile data applications requires seamless execution across multiple systems, including the carrier network, the device, and often one or more third-party content platforms.
Because of the complexity of the mobile application delivery system, monitoring mobile applications from the end-user’s perspective is the only sure way to guarantee that the system is working end-to-end. LiveMonitor™, by Mobile Complete, offers an automated solution for monitoring applications from the end-user’s perspective.
End-user Application Monitoring
LiveMonitor utilizes Mobile Complete’s innovative Direct-to-Device™ technology to interact with real devices in live networks, allowing you to monitor your mobile applications from the user’s perspective. Just choose your handsets from any of the over 1000 models available on the market today, pick your deployment locations, and you have an automated distributed monitoring system, made up of real handsets in live networks.
Then through our easy-to-use interface, you can set up continuous monitors that run 24/7, measuring your applications’ performance and availability. With LiveMonitor you will be able to answer such questions as, “How do my services behave when accessed through a Nokia handset versus a Samsung handset?” or “How long does it take for peer-to-peer application users to communicate when located thousands of miles apart on my network?”, or “Am I meeting my SLA requirements?”. In fact, any application that can be accessed by a user with a device in their hand can be monitored through LiveMonitor.
LiveMonitor Features and Benefits
Easy-to-create test scenarios: You can rapidly create hundreds of automated monitoring scripts using any one of our three scripting languages: Visual drag and- drop scripting, Java API scripting, and Record and Playback scripting (see our LiveTest™ product brochure for more details).
Alternatively, Mobile Complete can build scripts for you, for your specific use cases. These scripts will conveniently walk through entire applications from a functional perspective, tracking single-or
multi-step transactions and measuring and reporting timing characteristics and/
or success/failure at each step.
Flexible reporting: View performance data in real-time via our web interface. Receive alerts based on user-defined thresholds. Create your own set of custom KPIs for each application. Each KPI, threshold violation, or performance failure is reported along with a frame-by frame view of what actually happened on the handset – showing you exactly what the user experienced.
Competitive benchmarking: Perform cross-carrier, cross-location, or cross handset
vendor benchmarking. For example, measure how long it takes MMS messages to pass back and forth between two users located across two continents, or see whether your ring tone download is the fastest among local service providers.
