Manager, Observability Automation & Service Operations at a tech vendor with 5,001-10,000 employees
Proactive monitoring has reduced downtime and now identifies traffic issues before customers notice
I think Catchpoint can be improved because it is competitively a little costlier. I understand that Catchpoint provides the best solution, but comparatively, if I compare it with Uptrends, New Relic, DataDog, and ThousandEyes, Catchpoint does multiple things, but it comes with a cost. That is one of the areas you can leverage use cases based on customer requirements and come up with a better pricing model. The existing ones are good, but for our use case from Zoom, we were just looking for our endpoints to be monitored every minute, and that cost us a lot compared to the existing tool that we were using. That area is something to look for improvement.

What needs improvement with Catchpoint?
I think Catchpoint should have licensing models for individuals or very small organizations, and there is no auto-tuning for alerts, so auto-tuning features for alerts would be beneficial.
What is your primary use case for Catchpoint?
My main use case for Catchpoint is to check website availability in different regions so that we can be aware of any downtimes. A specific example of how I have used Catchpoint to check website ava...
