Rigor Adds Serverless Private Locations Feature and Announces Evergreen Browser Support
ATLANTA (PRWEB) October 30, 2018 -- Rigor, the only provider of Digital Experience Lifecycle Management solutions, today released new features to its existing Private Location offering, including easier installation of its industry-leading user experience improvement solution and true evergreen Chrome browser support for all customers. These new features give companies the ability to deliver fast and reliable digital experiences to end users.
New Simple, One-Step Installation
Rigor Private Locations is the only cloud-monitoring solution that can be installed in minutes, with the ability to run front-end user experience performance tests in both production and pre-production environments to help improve quality of code before going live. Using container-based Docker technology, Private Locations can now be installed with a single “run” command and deployed in both internal and external environments to monitor business-critical systems across any geography with ease and minimal configuration. This helps customers seamlessly integrate web performance and user experience testing standards directly into the software development lifecycle, driving improvements in quality and speed to market.
"I need to understand the performance characteristics of new versions of our sites and how those differ from production before we deploy,” said Erick Leon, senior performance architect for Carnival Cruise Lines. “With just a few Docker commands, I had a Rigor location up and running in minutes, allowing me to find and fix performance issues while my sites are still in a lower environment and catch problems before they reach my users.”
Rigor’s Private Locations enable customers to find, fix and prevent web performance or user experience (UX) defects on any internal or external application, in any environment, from anywhere in the world in just four easy steps. The serverless solution provides all-inclusive visibility into the performance and user experience in the geographies and network environments that matter most, before there is an impact on revenue, and makes monitoring both internal and external systems effortless.
Chrome 69 and Evergreen Chrome Browser Support
Rigor also officially announced today Chrome 69 and evergreen Chrome browser support in its Digital Experience Lifecycle Management Platform, which empowers companies to manage the performance of web applications from inception through production. Rigor is the first monitoring technology company to offer this truly evergreen browser experience. Rigor users who monitor user experience through Chrome will experience automatic updates to new versions of the browser as they are released, ensuring the most accurate representation of the user experience.
“The benefit of this feature alone is monumental and is frictionless to our customers,” said Rigor CEO Craig Hyde. “Over 90 percent of Chrome users are on auto-update and our platform is the only one in the industry accurately portraying the user experience of the world’s most used browser.”
Front-end user monitoring and testing with the most recent version of Chrome allows companies to capture and implement changes based upon the most accurate user experience possible, which is non-standard in today’s quickly changing digital environment. Implementing browser updates can be time-consuming and complex, causing skewed reporting metrics. Without automatic updates, UX front-end monitoring user flows captured and recorded will capture the experience on an outdated browser, which can also lead to inaccuracies. Rigor’s Chrome browser attribute allows for optimizations that in many cases would only be seen or supported by the most recent Chrome version.
“Customer experience is a key competitive advantage for companies racing toward digital transformation,” added Hyde. “Rigor has the ability to automate the lifecycle for building and delivering high-performance digital experiences.”
