  UTRECHT, THE NETHERLANDS, Sep 02 (MARKET WIRE) -- 
In order to meet customer demand, WatchMouse is proud to announce the
expansion of its global infrastructure with another eight monitoring
stations being deployed over the past two months. The new stations are
in: India, Israel, Japan, New Zealand, Russia, South Africa, Switzerland
and the USA. WatchMouse now offers 25 monitoring stations in major
European and North American cities, with a further 10 stations spread
across Africa, the Middle East, South America and Oceania.

    WatchMouse's extensive infrastructure provides the means to accurately
monitor sites and web applications from the perspective of users based in
different global locations. Such multi-point monitoring is imperative as
site performance varies greatly depending on the location of the user
(e.g. customers in the USA might quickly access a site, while for users in
Germany, the same site has errors or a long load time). WatchMouse CTO
Mark Pors explains that "Even if your site works well from your
headquarters, customers may still have trouble reaching it from different
external locations. As a slow or faulty site can frustrate users, damage
the reputation of a company and result in lost sales, it is essential to
monitor from more than one point."

    As the vast majority of businesses are aware of the need for global
performance monitoring, WatchMouse was surprised to find global
performance issues on the sites of some major international
organizations, including the social networking site Facebook. In recent
research WatchMouse found that facebook.com performs well in the USA but
showed serious user issues from many other locations.

    WatchMouse's market leading infrastructure can help international
organizations identify performance issues. Equally, WatchMouse supports
clients who require performance monitoring within a particular region by
allowing monitoring to be restricted to a sub-set of monitoring stations.
This feature is useful for companies that only trade within a large
country (e.g. USA) or region (e.g. Europe) but still require comprehensive
monitoring within their area of operation.
