WatchLatency on every check
Each check stores response time, so you see real performance — not just a green dot.
Response time
Catch slow before it becomes down
A service that is up but slow is already losing you customers. WatchControl records response time on every check and alerts you when it crosses your limit.
Slow-response alerts
Flag a monitor as degraded when it answers slower than your threshold, before it fully fails.
Trends & history
See latency over hours or weeks to spot regressions and back up performance claims.
Built into every monitor
Works on HTTP, keyword and API checks — no separate setup.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What counts as response time here?
The time your endpoint takes to answer each check, tracked over time so you can spot gradual slowdowns.
Can I be alerted on slow responses?
Yes — set a threshold and get alerted when responses cross it, before users feel it as downtime.
Is response-time history included?
Yes — response-time history is built in, so you can see trends and back up SLA reports.
Is it free?
Yes — response-time tracking is part of HTTP monitoring on every plan.
