Monitive - Detect downtime before your customers do

Every website owner...

...should know that, on average, their website goes down 6 hours every month.

In our 10 years of experience we actually detected 2,182,259 outages for over 4,685 users.

You probably suspect yours goes down as well, but don’t have a clue how to check.

Which means that

You've already lost business

Imagine your virtual shop's door is closed. People cannot get in, cannot buy, cannot recommend you.

You're losing trust

Your potential clients landed on a blank error page and lost their trust. When is the last time you recommended a website you did not find working?

You're wasting money

You're throwing money into advertising which doesn’t convert, making your marketing strategy useless.

If you don’t take any measures to change this,

you risk losing between $137 and $9,000 per minute!

And it's not even coming from us, this is what the experts are saying.
Don't let downtime ruin your reputation, marketing efforts, conversion rate or your business.

The setup takes under 30 seconds.

Just type your name, email, phone number and your website's URL.

We'll take it from there and monitor your website every minute from 6+ locations.

Get powerful insights

Weekly and monthly uptime reports ensure you get clarity on your websites' performance.

Take action and keep up your SLA, including website response time (latency).

Friendly on your smartphone

Whether you're on the beach or in a meeting, get the most important info with just a few taps.

Intelligent alerting

This is what happens when your site goes down:

We instantly send you an email alert.

If 3 minutes have passed and it's still down, we'll send you an SMS alert.

If 10 minutes have passed and it's still down, we will call you.

You can customize this behaviour according to your needs.

Unlimited email alerts

Email alerts contain the most important information, such as the monitor's name, outage starting time and the error we detected.

When you receive an outage alert, you can acknowledge it. That way, we won't bother you with more alerts about the same issue.

Mobile-data proof SMS

Regardless of your mobile internet settings or support, SMS alerts are always useful to pinch through the stream of never-ending notifications about nothing serious.

You'll never miss an outage notification due to your data plan being depleted or deactivated.

When it's serious...

We'll call. Scout's honor!

After 10 minutes into an outage, our system will automatically call you.

This way you can safely focus on what's in front of you and we promise to let you know if something is serious.

By default, you will not get phone call alerts during night time. Your good night's sleep might be more important than a healthy website. Feel free to change that.

A generous layout for a generous display, showing everything you need to know for quick and smart decisions in times of crisis.

Response time monitoring

Response time and page load time are crucial aspects that impact user experience, SEO, sales, server load and much more.

The assumption that your page will load just as fast from any location in the world is generally dangerous and usually wrong.

In general, the only way to spot peaks and changes in performance is by constant monitoring of response times.

Weekly & monthly uptime reports

We'll send you uptime reports every week and every month for your future reference. Using these reports you can easily see how your websites and services performed during that period.

We keep these reports for up to 10 years, so historical information will always be available.

Monitor grouping

Monitoring multiple systems involves checking that the various components of those systems are working as expected.

With the monitor grouping feature, you can group together monitors and get an eagle eye view of your systems, plus you get aggregated availability and response time stats for each group.

Built to make your life easier

Supercharge your website's uptime by leveraging even more features, all included.

HTTP Monitoring

HTTP/HTTPS Monitoring allows you check a website every minute and instantly report when it's not responding.

Ping Monitoring

Ping Monitoring allows you to add monitors that periodically ping the designated hostname or IP address. We will instantly notify you if we don't get a timely reply back.

TCP Monitoring

TCP Port Monitoring allows you monitor any TCP/IP service by periodically connecting to a specific host and port, and report when the connection cannot be established.

HTTP Custom Status

Monitor for a custom HTTP Status such as 401 or 404 instead of the standard 200 OK. We'll consider monitors that respond with your custom status as available (up) and whenever the response changes, we'll alert you.

HTTP Custom Headers

Send any custom headers for HTTP monitors. HTTP headers let the client and the server pass additional information with an HTTP request or response. This is great for monitoring APIs and other endpoints.

HTTP Custom Method

Monitor HTTP endpoints using other than GET methods, such as POST, PUT or DELETE, and specify your custom request body. We'll send the headers and body with each check we make.

Custom Locations

Select which nodes of our monitoring network are checking your monitors. Very useful in case your users are withing one or certain geographical areas.

Custom Interval

Customize the frequency of the monitoring checks for any of your monitors from 1 minute and up to 24 hours. Adjust stress on your server when monitoring pages that consume resources.

Custom Timeout

Customize the checks timeout for any monitor, which is by default 20 seconds. If the server doesn't answer in the preset timeout interval, we consider it unavailable and we start double-checking and registering an outage.

Keyword monitoring

Eliminate situations when your website is responding, but with an error page instead of the content. Add a keyword that should be on the page if it's all good and we will alert you if it disappears.

Silent hours

By default we won't call you at night, so you can get some rest even if there are night-time outages. If it's critical for you to be woken up when your site goes down, we can do that too.

Outage acknowledgement

Each outage will trigger a succession of alerts, from email to phone call. If you acknowledge the outage from an alert we won't bother you any more, assuming that you are now aware that things went south.

RESTful API

The web interface uses our RESTful API for all operations. Feel free to plug in and build your own flows and features.

Mobile & Chrome Webapp

Monitive is always just a click away to keep you informed. Feel free to add the mobile web app to your home screen or install it as a Chrome app to help you keep an eye what matters to you.

Webhook Alerts

Get a webhook call to your desired URL for monitor outage and recovery alerts. Useful when you have scripts that further handle outages and recoveries.

Team Management

Invite your team members and share the knowledge (and alerts). Unlimited users can be added to your team, making uptime monitoring and incident management a bliss.

Maintenance Window
