Built for stores that cannot afford downtime
30-second checks
Scale plan checks every page in your funnel every 30 seconds. A checkout failure is detected and alerted within a minute, before more than a handful of customers encounter it.
Keyword monitoring for checkout
A 200 OK does not mean your checkout is working. Keyword monitoring verifies that "Add to Cart" is on your product page and "Place order" is on your checkout. Catch broken deploys in seconds.
Multi-location checks
Growth and Scale plans check from 5 regions simultaneously. A slow response from one region while others are fast is flagged as a localized issue, not a false global outage.
Smart anomaly alerts
Growth and Scale: Beaconmon learns your store's normal response time baseline and alerts you when a page is significantly slower than usual, even if it has not gone down.
How ecommerce monitoring works
Monitor every page in your funnel as a separate check. Know exactly which part broke.
- Add your homepage, product page, cart, and checkout as separate HTTP monitors
- Enable keyword checks on your cart and checkout to verify critical content
- Set alert channels: email, Slack, or webhook
- Beaconmon monitors every 30 seconds and alerts your team the moment a check fails
Frequently asked questions
How quickly does Beaconmon detect ecommerce downtime?
On the Scale plan with 30-second checks, a downtime event is detected within 30 seconds and an alert is sent after 2 consecutive failed checks, so within 60 seconds of the start of an outage.
What is keyword monitoring?
Keyword monitoring checks that a specific word or phrase is present in the HTTP response body. For ecommerce, you use it to confirm that "Add to Cart" is on a product page or "Place order" is on the checkout, even if the server returns 200 OK.
What is multi-location monitoring?
Beaconmon sends checks from up to 5 geographic regions simultaneously. If your server is slow in Europe but fast in the US, you see exactly which region is affected, not a global false alarm.
Does Beaconmon monitor Shopify stores?
Yes. Beaconmon monitors any HTTP endpoint, including Shopify storefronts, custom stores, WooCommerce, Magento, and headless ecommerce setups.
What happens when a monitor goes down?
Beaconmon creates an incident, sends alerts to all configured channels, and logs the start time. When the monitor recovers, it sends a recovery alert and records the total downtime duration.
