Features and Benefits
SiteMonitor
offers a complete solution to
website monitoring that does not require downloads or software to
install. We monitor your site over the web, notify you
upon failures and report on
your site's responsiveness.
SiteMonitor
lets you know when your site is down. Unlike services that run
on your server, which can give you a false sense of security, we monitor
your site from the web. If your site is inaccessible
for any reason, we will alert you.
Monitoring
- Site monitoring with configurable intervals. Click here for pricing details.
- You can monitor an unlimited number of servers with one
account. This allows you to see all your servers and their current
status from a single screen.
- We can monitor HTTP, E-Mail (SMTP or POP3), FTP and any other protocols.  We
let you know exactly what failed on your server, not just a generic
failure message.
Notification and Escalation
- Upon a failure, we will contact any number of contacts through e-mail
or SMS gateways. Dial-up pager access is supported for a small
fee. Click here for pricing details.
- You can setup contacts to be notified after a certain amount of
downtime. This means that you can have contacts notified immediately
and if your server is still down after a set time, additional contacts can
be notified.  There is no limit to how many contacts or escalations you can set up.
Reporting
- For every server, we maintain a log of all failures and notifications,
which you can view anytime.
- For every server, we measure record the amount of time it takes for every
test. We provide seven reports on historical performance
trends. These reports are:
- Summary Information
- Responsiveness History
- Responsiveness by Hour of Day
- Responsiveness by Day of Week
- Test Result History
- Test Results by Hour of Day
- Test Result by Day of Week
You can use these reports to determine if there are downtime or slow-response
trends at certain times during the day or week.
