This is different from [[Browser-based testing|browser-based tools]] or [[Performance profiling|performance profilers]] because RUM does not _simulate_ users; it monitors real ones. ## Tools for RUM - DynaTrace RUM - [[New Relic RUM]] - AppDynamics RUM - Pingdom - Akamai mPulse - Akamai Boomerang (JavaScript library) - Catchpoint - [[Grafana Faro]]
