I tried Uptimerobot, but within a week I noticed a 12-hour period in which no monitoring took place. (Based on server logs on the monitored servers.) Monitoring resumed after 12 hours without a word from them. Outages happen - even to monitoring service providers - but what really bothered me was the complete lack of acknowledgement of the issue on their part. I wish them the best, and I still use their cheapest paid level of service as a secondary layer of monitoring for important sites, but I've switched to StatusCake (and internal tools) for primary.

I can recommend uptimerobot.com. I tried their free-tier service after an earlier recommendation which was either on this list or NANOG; I forget which. The service has been very reliable other than a few blips with IPv6 to some local hosts (we're down in New Zealand and it's likely related to local ISP's IPv6 routing rather than UptimeRobot's).
Can't beat the price either. We're monitoring I think around 25 services across various hosts and thus-far haven't needed to upgrade to the paid level. So maybe I can pay it forward with a recommendation instead! :)

Hi All, Anyone have any suggestions on recommended website/IP monitoring tools? There are so many out there and just need help to narrow the list down based on what you're using or have good experience with.
Thank you. *_________________________________*
