Overview

You can use WPM recordings created in the Web Transaction Recorder as Transaction Checks in SolarWinds Pingdom, enabling you to play recordings from a cloud network of probes outside of your firewall, providing a truer representation of external end users.

By combining these two products, you can use WPM's synthetic transactions to monitor the user experience behind your firewall, while Pingdom tracks the real-world user experience across your network and alerts you if sites go down.
