Summary

New Relic One synthetics monitoring capabilities help detect and resolve poor performance and outages before customers notice. With 10,000 synthetics checks per month included with free accounts, users can test complex user flows on their website without writing code. The new step builder feature allows users to easily create monitors that verify users can log in, perform actions like logging into a website or adding items to a shopping cart, and verify elements appear on the page. Users can locate elements by CSS class, HTML ID, link text, or XPath, and view performance metrics such as request/response times, error response codes, duration, and metadata and tags. Additionally, synthetics monitoring allows users to ping from multiple geographic locations, making it easier to localize problems and save time.
