Site24x7

Excellent monitoring solution with pay-per-use licensing

Kommentare: For my company uptime is essential to our deliverables, and we're held to SLA requirements by contract. I can demonstrate both uptime and issues beyond our control that should not affect SLA (IE the customer doesn't renew their domain or uses a weak registrar).

Vorteile:

I've been with Site24x7 since early days and the team keep adding functionality and more granular and complex ways to test my essential services. Service is always on and both custom and provided distributed pollers are rock solid--if there's an alert I can be sure it's not a false negative.They also provide plenty of statistics and pre-alert diagnosis so things like regional outages or problems with a registrar are obvious from the outset.Plenty of ways to notify, including integrations with 3rd party solutions such as PagerDuty and xMatters for scheduling team coverage and response.

Nachteile:

Initially the service was limited in some ways but the team was very responsive to feedback and quickly upped their game.I think the only thing I'd like to change now is automatic ssl cert issue detection/warning of impending expiration for all https monitors.

Gründe für den Wechsel zu Site24x7: Site24x7 was the most cost-effective and provided multiple-site polling without extra charge.

Reliable Uptime Monitoring with Comprehensive Features

Kommentare: My overall experience with Site24x7 has been really positive. It's a reliable tool that does exactly what we need—monitor uptime and performance across our websites and servers. The alerts are quick, and the insights have helped us prevent downtime and stay ahead of issues. While there’s a learning curve with some advanced features, once you get the hang of it, it becomes an essential part of managing our online presence. It’s given us peace of mind and saved us a lot of time troubleshooting potential problems.

Vorteile:

What I like most about Site24x7 is how reliable and easy their uptime monitoring is. It gives me peace of mind knowing that if something goes wrong with our website or servers, I’ll get an instant alert so we can fix it fast. The reports are detailed but not overwhelming, and I appreciate that I can check on things from pretty much anywhere. Their global monitoring locations are also a huge plus, as we can see how our site is performing in different regions. It’s user-friendly, and the insights really help us stay on top of any performance issues before they turn into bigger problems.

Nachteile:

It’s not the easiest to set up custom dashboards without spending some time learning the system.

Site24x7 has been a game-changer for monitoring my website's performance and ensuring uptime.

Vorteile:

The user-friendly interface and comprehensive monitoring capabilities have made my job much easier.

Nachteile:

I wish the reporting features were a bit more customizable and robust for in-depth analysis.

Great medium-business solution with minimal time investment

Kommentare: This is a great solution for an IT department that can't dedicate a sole resource to configuring and maintaining a monitoring solution. The implementation was easy and intuitive, pre-sales support was very helpful, and the information presented to us gives us a clear view of our environment.

Vorteile:

The hosted platform makes it easy to monitor our environment while not having to manage the platform itself.

Nachteile:

There's no virtual appliance version of the on-premise poller, so we have to maintain another server onsite to perform on-prem actions. A self-updating appliance would provide a hands-off method to poll internal resources without adding to our management load.
