Process Monitoring

Monitor real user flows, not just endpoints.

Process Monitoring validates complete multi-step workflows—from login to checkout—so you catch real problems before users do.

Setup takes 30 seconds. No credit card required.

Why traditional monitoring isn't enough

Your homepage can load perfectly while checkout is completely broken. Uptime alone doesn't tell the whole story.

Checkout can break silently

A page can return 200 OK while the payment flow is completely broken. Users abandon, you lose revenue.

Login works, then nothing

Authentication passes but downstream APIs fail. Users get stuck inside your app with no way forward.

Webhooks never arrive

Your endpoint responds, but the callback from a third-party service never comes. Data goes missing.

Users experience flows

Real users don't hit single endpoints. They complete journeys. That's what you should be monitoring.

Process Monitoring catches what uptime checks miss:

Partial failures. Broken business logic. Regressions hiding behind a green status badge.

Process Monitoring vs Traditional Uptime

See exactly what each approach catches—and what it misses.

Issue Type Traditional Uptime Process Monitoring
Server responds
Page loads
JavaScript errors
Broken forms
Payment gateway failures
API integration errors
Login/auth broken
Multi-step flow failures

Traditional uptime shows green while your checkout is broken. Process Monitoring catches the real problems.

Why Not Checkly or Pingdom?

We're not the only ones doing process monitoring. But we're the most accessible.

No Coding Required

Checkly requires Playwright scripting. PerkyDash uses a visual builder—just configure your flow and we handle the rest.

Flat, Predictable Pricing

Pingdom charges $10-15 per transaction check. PerkyDash includes process monitoring in all plans at no extra cost.

Built for Non-Devs

You don't need to be a developer to monitor your checkout. If you can use your website, you can set up monitoring.

Built for real-world workflows

Monitor the flows that actually matter to your business and your users.

E-commerce

If checkout breaks, uptime alone won't save you. Process Monitoring will.

How It Works

Workflows made of steps. Each one validated.

Each process monitor represents a sequence of steps. Every step must succeed for the process to be considered healthy. If any step fails, you know exactly where and why.

Sequential execution

Steps run in order, just like a real user would experience them.

Automatic data passing

Data from earlier steps is automatically available in later ones. No hardcoding.

Full context on failure

When something breaks, you get the exact step, the error, and all the context you need.

No scripting required

No glue code. Just clear, visual configuration that anyone can understand.

Visual process builder

You design processes the same way you think about them.

Visual timeline

Steps shown as a vertical flow. Clear order of execution. Immediate visibility of what runs first, next, and last.

Drag & drop

Reorder steps visually. Experiment safely with different flows. Understand complex processes at a glance.

Ready-to-use templates

Validation & Verification

Steps that talk to each other

This is what makes Process Monitoring powerful. Verify responses, check content, and reuse data across your entire workflow automatically.

Flexible assertions

Verify status codes, response times, content presence, and data structure.

Dynamic data extraction

Pull tokens, IDs, and values from responses to use in subsequent steps.

No hardcoded values

Works with dynamic sessions, tokens, and IDs that change every run.

Results & Debugging

Know where and why things break

You don't just know that something broke. You know exactly which step failed, how long each step took, and what went wrong.

Overall success or failure

Instant visibility into whether the entire process completed successfully.

Pinpoint the failing step

Clear indication of exactly which step in the sequence failed.

Timing per step

See execution time for each step to identify performance bottlenecks.

Detailed failure reason

Full context including error messages, response data, and assertion failures.

Simulates real user and system behavior, not just endpoint pings.

Deep issue detection

Finds problems invisible to classic uptime checks.

Faster debugging

Pinpoints the exact step causing failure. No guessing.

Extreme flexibility

Works for any HTTP-based workflow you can imagine.

No-code configuration

Build complex flows without writing a single line of code.

Instant alerts

Get notified the moment a critical flow breaks.

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about Process Monitoring

Process Monitoring validates complete multi-step workflows instead of just checking if a single URL responds. It simulates real user journeys—like logging in, adding items to a cart, and completing checkout—to verify that every step works correctly and in sequence.
Traditional uptime monitoring checks if a single endpoint responds. Process Monitoring goes further by validating entire workflows. Your homepage might return 200 OK while your checkout is completely broken. Process Monitoring catches these real-world failures that uptime checks miss.
Absolutely. These are the most common use cases. You can monitor login flows with session validation, checkout processes with payment verification, multi-step forms, API workflows, and any sequence of HTTP requests that need to work together.
No. The visual builder lets you configure complex flows without writing any code. You add steps, configure requests, set up assertions, and define data extraction—all through a visual interface. It's designed to be accessible to anyone, not just developers.
Perfect for them. Process Monitoring works with any HTTP-based workflow. You can validate API sequences (create, read, update, delete), authentication flows with token handling, webhook delivery verification, and complex integrations between services.
Very detailed. When a process fails, you see exactly which step failed, the error message or assertion that triggered the failure, timing for each step, the request that was sent, and the response that was received. You have everything you need to diagnose and fix the issue quickly.
