Gomez shows strong growth, as web app management
becomes a "must have"
"...Why should anyone care about Gomez? If you deliver content or applications over the Internet, you should care about Gomez a great deal. Most network management suites are very good at telling if a server is up or down, or if an application is responding. Most are absolutely useless at determining how well a complicated SaaS application is working. Those network management systems are similarly bad at determining CDN performance. And frankly, why should the customers of a SaaS Hoster, Managed Hoster, or CDN believe their provider's protestations of great performance, when they are seeing slow applications or pokey content delivery?"
"...That's why T1R thinks its a good idea for anyone in the content delivery or SaaS enablement space to partner with someone like Gomez...It takes a great deal of integrity and confidence to literally sell a third party monitoring service (over which you have no control) with your service. T1R thinks that Gomez-measured SaaS hosting would be a very impressive offering and a great way to boost SaaS hosting revenue." (D. Golding)
