San Mateo, California — September 23, 2008 — Keynote® Systems (Nasdaq: KEYN), the global leader in on-demand mobile and Internet test & measurement solutions for continuously improving the online experience, today announced that neoSaej Corp., a leader in online auction marketplaces and the developer of MoneyAisle.com, a Web site where banks actively bid for customers through live secure auctions, has selected Keynote LoadPro and Transaction Perspective®. LoadPro is Keynote’s outsourced Web load testing service and Transaction Perspective is the company’s flagship product suite that delivers unparalleled accuracy and visibility into end user experience with real browser measurements.
“We strive to continuously improve the quality and availability of our product and our Web site,” said Mukesh Chatter, President and CEO of neoSaej. “After an extensive evaluation process, we selected Keynote LoadPro and Transaction Perspective because we felt that they offered best-of-breed solutions that could improve the performance, user experience and stability of MoneyAisle.”
neoSaej began using LoadPro prior to the launch of MoneyAisle.com in June 2008 to ensure scalability and performance under load from an end user perspective. LoadPro provides the best available load testing solution due to its accurate methodology, precise and robust load testing infrastructure, industry expertise and overall product stability. After a successful initial trial, neoSaej plans to continue to use LoadPro to test new features and updates.
The company is also using Keynote Transaction Perspective to monitor MoneyAisle’s ongoing site performance and availability. Transaction Perspective is the industry’s only Web monitoring product that uses the actual Internet Explorer browser providing precise and accurate Web site performance data from the end user perspective.
“We used LoadPro to stress-test MoneyAisle using very realistic scenarios before the launch so we could be sure it would sustain the loads we anticipated,” said Rohit Goyal, neoSaej’s vice president of engineering. “Using LoadPro, we were able to optimize MoneyAisle by measuring performance as well as user experience with increasing traffic load. We plan to continue to use LoadPro as we develop additional features and improve our scalability.”
Now that MoneyAisle is live, neoSaej is ensuring its performance with Keynote Transaction Perspective. Said Goyal, “We’re using Transaction Perspective to monitor the performance and availability of typical Web transactions users might perform from multiple locations 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. We want to know how our site is performing at all times.”
“We’re pleased to be helping neoSaej test and ensure the 24/7 performance of MoneyAisle.com,” said Anshu Agarwal, vice president of marketing at Keynote. “By using LoadPro for capacity testing and Transaction Perspective for site performance monitoring neoSaej can be confident that its end user experience will be world-class.”
