Update Locations

Pulsetic monitors your websites, servers, and APIs from various global locations. This gives you a complete view of your resource's availability and performance, as issues can differ by region. You can customize the locations used for your checks, ensuring you monitor the areas that are important to your users.

Why Update Locations?

Choosing different monitoring locations gives you a global view of how your website or service performs worldwide. You'll see if your site loads quickly in Tokyo just like it does in Toronto or if certain areas experience delays.

This is especially useful if most of your users come from specific regions. You can focus monitoring on those locations to ensure the best experience for your main audience.

Different networks and internet providers around the world can affect your site's performance. By checking from multiple locations, you'll spot if certain areas have consistent problems that need fixing.

Some businesses also need to verify their service works properly in specific countries to meet local regulations. Multi-location monitoring helps confirm you're compliant everywhere you operate.

In short, checking from various locations helps you:

✓Understand global performance

✓Optimize for your key markets

✓Identify regional network issues

✓Meet geographic requirements
