ServiceUptime · founded 2005
What it is
ServiceUptime remotely checks website availability and performance, then sends alerts when it identifies a problem. It supports monitoring web pages, PING, HTTP/HTTPS, links, mail servers, download servers, DNS, MySQL, and custom servers or ports. Users can choose intervals from 1 to 60 minutes, including 1-, 2-, 3-, 5-, 10-, 15-, 30-, and 60-minute checks. Keyword and server monitoring are included. Alerts can use email, SMS, or webhooks, and the API supports custom alerting applications. Before notifying users, ServiceUptime verifies detected problems from multiple monitoring locations. Reports cover uptime, performance, and lifetime statistics, which the company says are not deleted. Public statistics can be displayed on a user’s website. The free account checks one service every 30 or 60 minutes; SMS alerts require separately purchased packs. Plans include Free at no cost, Start at $5.95 a month, Standard at $9.95 a month, Advanced at $29.95 a month, and Professional at $89.95 a month.
