San Jose, CA, August 08, 2009 --(PR.com)-- This mobile monitoring agent is available free of charge, and will make it much easier and faster to find, diagnose, and resolve problems with mobile Web application availability and performance. The MMA allows web content providers to see the levels of performance and availability that their end users will encounter.

The Mobile Agent from Monitis is an autonomous software that users must download from the Android marketplace; it will come at no cost. Mobile Agent can diagnose problems with access to the Web on any mobile network or device once an IP address or URL is provided. It independently tests and monitors mobile content, applications, and services on different phone and networks worldwide, alerting users if difficulties are encountered. The user may request probes at regular intervals, and the Agent will get response times for HTTP requests to URLs that the user designates. This measurement and testing solution will allow mobile providers to compare their service to competitors in many different markets free of charge.
