Overall Satisfaction with SolarWinds Pingdom
We use Pingdom to monitor 30+ different web endpoints in terms of uptime - both internal and 3rd party applications. We have a team of admins that monitor different services and are notified within a minute via the Pingdom app, text, and email when anything goes down. Pingdom also gives us insight into what caused the error. This is an invaluable tool!
- Timeout alerts.
- Errors that result in non-200 HTTP responses.
- Alerting us via different methods (SMS, notifications, email).
- Allowing us to test uptime of internal applications.
- Allow us to setup alerts that are more complex (not just an HTTP post/get request ... but something that is able to test an application that requires authentication).
- Everything else is pretty straightforward and robust.
- Helps us mitigate downtime at a moment's notice.
- The price is reasonable.
- The number of users we are allowed to have in our account helps us avoid the 'single point of failure' issue.
