Overall Satisfaction with Freshping
Freshping is used by our I.T. department along with other tools that monitor the health of our systems. It is one of a few indicators that there may be a problem. We use it to monitor services directly used by our users. We also integrate it with our ticketing system, Freshservice.
- Easy to use
- Easy to configure
- Simple alerts
- Better integration with Freshservice to generate tickets
- Monitor internal systems
- Better ability to customize
- Good visual for end users
- Adds another check to verify uptime/outages
- Cost for us was free, so we had nothing to lose by adding it
We did not choose Freshping over these, we selected it as an additional tool in our toolset. It is important to have multiple angles of monitoring, and FreshPing was a natural addition because of its integration with our existing trouble ticketing solution and it being completely free to use. Compared to PRTG, it is much easier to create a systems status/uptime page for the end users to view.
