AlertSite Feature Requests

Having an API  for creating users and mapping with the relevant roles will benefit us in having the users created as part of automation. ... View more

Currently, only "response time" is available on the list dashboard. This causes a TON of heartburn (I have been forbidden to display the AlertSite dashboard in our NOC) as we are driven by visually complete (page load) metrics for other products. So you can imagine, when our CIO see 3s to load something in one tool, and 8s in AlertSite, I had to explain in his office why we are "lying" to him about the 3s. You can imagine how that conversation went. This issue would be fixed if we could use "page load" as that is our focus. Until then, the AlertSite dashboards (which are gorgeous) will be collecting dust. ... View more

Currently, APDEX is calculated every hour. This does not work in our business and we need a much finer calculation, preferably every 5 minutes, but would settle for 15 minutes. It goes back to having the dashboard provide tighter time periods as 12 hour minimum is very large. Would love to see last 15 minutes or such. I'd be happy to pay more for the service to facilitate the extra calculations. ... View more

Please develop advanced security options with user accounts. Such as, account lock after X failed attempts. Currently Alertsite has no advanced security features which does not comply with our company standard.   ... View more

We recently upgraded our website, and it requires Firefox version 47 or greater to successfully run a recorded script using DejaClick.  When I run it on AlertSite, however, it fails, and I found out that it's because you're still on version 24 of Firefox.  We need the browsers upgraded to the latest version in order to successfully monitor transactions on our website.    Thanks. ...

We would like the option to display the default tile/list monitor dashboard in a "night mode" (black/dark background, white text) for our monitoring screens. ... View more

We intend to do most of our reporting via API-obtained data, we would prefer the API feature was enhanced to support multiple devices for SLA Detail. We would also like an API call for the SLA Summary report. ... View more

Currently AlertSite supports AppDynamics transaction tracing, but Dynatrace SaaS is a superior product and should be supported as well. ... View more

Please address the dip at the end of the current hour -  Can that be fixed in the UI somehow? It makes people think there are outages. We are using these for some NOC dashboards. ... View more

the group below only has one member that goes into blackout from 9PM thru 8:30AM. Why does the APDEX continue to span while the availability goes NULL? I would expect the APDEX to go NULL as well during the blackout period. There are no other active monitors in the group below that should be driving APDEX during the blackout it seems. ... View more

It would be really useful if you could extend your API to include control of Blackouts. The use case I am thinking of is to include a Blackout period in a build script so that when a build is being deployed by automated build system like Jenkins, we could include a call to the API to create/enable a blackout period, and then when the build is complete destroy or disable the blackout.   Other monitoring systems already have this capability, I was surprised to learn that Alertsite did not.   Thanks ...

Group Apdex pallette are all very similiar color tones, we could run into ADA violations as we need to provide reasonable accommodations to people with disabilities and cannot make monitoring this page a job requirement. See attached. ... View more

Such as step performance timings, dejaclick data (keywords/event input//variables/match option, etc etc etc), alert recipient group relationship, template relationships and have this exportable via API. Basically I want to be able to publish everything into a sharepoint site (or whereever) and avoid having to manually create this for operations teams. ... View more

As an alertsite admin I would like to be able to use the API to take action on monitors based upon tags.   For example:  Allow our automation to disable all monitors tagged as "Feature A" During a release then enable after the work is done.   This allows us to build more monitors withour keeping an internal repository of monitor IDs to take action on. ...

Currently there is no way to test alert templates without bogus keywords (for availability alerts) or really low performance thresholds. This is extremely time consuming to have to do this, especially when something I will need to test 20+ times as a new template is being developed. It can take an entire day to build one template and sign off on it for production, when it should take no more than 30-60m. ... View more

In the new UI when reviewing a run there is no way to copy the URL that is part of the waterfall. this can only be done manually by standing on the URL and then copying is letter for letter. These URLs are many times very long.   This actually used to work and for some reason was stopped where you could click on the link and it would open the URL in a new browser window but again this has stopped working for some reason. thanks! ...

I would like to have centrally executed test on demand available regardless of the transaction type. This would mean that transactions that are hosted on an Insite appliance could be triggered from the new UI without the need to download the transaction and execute it. The transactions should be allowed to be triggered from within the UI by an authorized user and not require an additional login as the account that typically executes the transaction. ... View more
