Pros

“I was able to do a comparison of the different types of dotcom-monitor Web/URL monitors and was successful in determining that dotcom-monitor provides a more true result (less false errors) than our current tool for web sites which use Cloudflare.”

Shawn T.

Cloud Engineer

“Allows me to test out the product without collecting credit card information.”

Len C.

Manager

“For my business I wish they had web site testing from countries like Russia, but I expect that is unique to me.”

Len C.

Manager

Pros

“We've never had any issues with their service, though very infrequently we see noise in the alerts that appear to be networking issues on UptimeRobot's side rather than our services.”

Matt C.

Open-source maintainer

“Quickly set up monitors for my websites, default notification settings, turn on and forget.”

Lukas C.

Web developer

“We have a separate commercial RMM tool to monitor up and downtime for client sites and servers, but honestly, we also happily subscribe to UptimeRobot for down and up alerts.”

Dan M.

IT Director

Cons

“I'd rather it select the default group or at least give you an error when you try to save it.”
