Monitor everything

Page load, application transactions, cloud, BGP. Get alerted to path changes, hijacks, unexpected origins as well as invalid RPKI status. Test at intervals as low as every second.

Use actual traffic

Plan synthetic tests based on your actual network traffic and have them update when patterns change. Improve accuracy and save time.

Identify root cause

Test performance and digital experience across all your infrastructure — clouds, applications, transactions and critical services. Alerts and visualizations will immediately identify issues.

Digital experience monitoring

Troubleshoot problems

Be alerted to performance problems and know they’re based on your real traffic patterns. Quickly zoom into specific tests and learn details of your traffic’s path so you can narrow down to the source of problems. Immediately see nodes with excessive latency or packet loss. Monitor BGP events including hijacks and path changes, route leaks and invalid RPKI status.

Troubleshoot problems

Monitor from anywhere

Emulate the performance of your global users. Test from any region in public cloud providers. Use any of our 200+ public agents and augment with private agents in your own network. Test web apps using app agents, page loads and transactions. Manage agents, tests and data with an API.

Monitor from anywhere

Comprehensive BGP monitoring

Monitor BGP events related to your network including hijacks and path changes, reachability problems, route leaks and invalid RPKI status. Collect BGP data related to your network from thousands of vantage points. Click once to create BGP monitor tests and set your custom alerts.

Comprehensive BGP monitoring

State of the Internet

Monitor the state of SaaS applications, in and between public clouds, DNS service providers. Use our hundreds of agents located across the globe or easily deploy your own so that you can monitor what’s important to you. Quickly identify root cause — is it my infrastructure, the cloud, or an application? No additional cost to see all our State of the Internet results.

Mesh test at scale

Set up complex, multi-site performance mesh tests with just a few clicks and view hundreds of results simultaneously. Our mesh view and visual cues show you problems at a glance. Click any cell to view performance metrics and drill down to the root cause of issues. See how you are running applications between data centers and public clouds. Share views internally or externally.

Visualize AS paths

By monitoring BGP, you can see the AS paths currently and at any point in time. Logical topology maps allow you to see AS path changes that may indicate instability. Monitor route announcement frequency and get alerted to changes.

Visualize AS paths

Keep websites running

Make sure your DNS and web servers are always up so that your websites and web-based applications are always available. Select agents for an accurate picture of server availability, resolution time and returned results, including IP addresses and MX records. Intelligently configure alerts for failures, query time deviations or anomalies over time.

Monitor DNS performance with Kentik

Ensure continuous performance

Ensure continuous performance of your time-sensitive applications so you don’t miss a beat. Configure tests down to the second, which is a must for applications like factory automation, media, or gaming, where latency can hurt your business.
