We needed a monitoring tool to track application uptime, response time and provide a public status page.
After looking at several options including the big ones like Pingdom and Pingometer, we went with updown.io. Their pricing model allowed us to pay for exactly what we needed (number of endpoints and frequency) without selling us anything we weren't going to use.
Their interface is easy to use, service has been rock solid and their public status pages look great.
Pingdom is an uptime monitoring service. When problems happen with a site that Pingdom monitors, it immediately alerts the owner so the problem can be taken care of.
Using our stories feature, you can test many different features of your live, production website. It could be you need to find out if logins are working. Whatever it is, StillAlive can (or will) be able to test it.
AlertBot's Website Monitoring provides businesses with around the clock testing of their website pages. This monitoring includes the testing of all possible webpage failure points as well as the verification of key performance metrics. This data gives businesses the information they need to ensure their websites are always running error-free and providing a quality user experience.
