App performance monitoring is the process of continuously observing, measuring, and optimizing software application behavior to ensure optimal user experience and system reliability. It goes beyond basic uptime checks to provide deep insights into application performance across all layers of the technology stack, from user interactions to infrastructure components. Modern app performance monitoring tools provide real-time visibility into application health, including response times, error rates, and resource utilization. This enables teams to proactively address issues, improve user satisfaction, and maintain business continuity without waiting for user complaints. Key fact: Applications with poor performance experience 50% higher user abandonment rates compared to well-optimized applications. Key fact: The average cost of application downtime is $5,600 per minute, making proactive monitoring essential for business continuity. Key fact: 73% of users expect applications to load in under 2 seconds, with 40% abandoning sites that take longer than 3 seconds.
