President

So far so good, looks to be on par with the other systems out there. And for free 1-minute monitoring it's the best out there for free.

Software Engineer

This is the first tool I open whenever I open my laptop, it really helps to monitor the availability of our website. Awesome integration, and it comes with 50-page monitoring, superb.

Freshping is a very easy to use and high quality service that bring you exactly what you need, as the other Freshwork great solutions.

Chief of Design

It is seamlessly connected to the other Freshapps like Freshdesk so if your site goes down, it creates a ticket automatically for the helpdesk to resolve.

2nd line support engineer

For a piece of free software, this is very nice. We are currently using it to monitor our customers' websites using the status page which works great.

CTO at Thunderfy

The best part it's free and it offers a lot nicer UI and functionality compared to other paid options on the market. I'm not saying things because it's nice and shiny.

IT Manager

As we are already a Freshwork user the integration to other products was very easy. Also this is very good for the free version and very well priced too.

Complete, easy to setup and stunning dashboard and good notifications.

web desinger

The best is reliability and clarity and what it looks like.

Free, works well, does what it has to, looks great and is easy to navigate.

I had some trouble with the Zapier integration, so I gave up.

I really liked it, it is cool and free. It integrates with zappier.

Owner

I like the ease of use, you add your domains and it pings your webserver automatically.

Developer / IT / Compliance

Fits in the $0 budget and is super easy to setup.

I struggle to find the link to the publicly shareable page.

It either works too slowly, or was broken. In either case, the built-in integrations for Slack and Twilio turned out to be all I needed anyway.

Technical Director

I was confused how Freshping and Freshworks are connected.

product manager

Easy installation and integration with Helpdesk.

Uptime.com

Better Uptime

Peace of mind and not needing to setup and maintain my own such system. I am more than capable of doing it by myself, but being a busy IT expert I can spend my time doing other things instead. I have my virtual servers in several locations so I would be able to replicate many Insping services by myself, but time is money so I try to select where it is best spent.

Happy user for more than 2 years and counting. Good value for the money. Not my first such service.

Freshping considerations

Easy to deploy and setup, perfect for individual and SMBs

I'm Lovin' It

Great service. Just what we needed.

I genuinely like the bang for my buck with this software! It seems relatively easy to use and offers more features than that of Uptime Robot!

Better than Uptime Robot!

Mainly trying to monitor uptime, works perfectly for that

Simple and effective

Freshping.io helps to keep penguins fresh

Very positive - Support is quick to respond during their advertised hours. They're happy to discuss feature design and roadmap, which definitely helps build confidence in Freshping. Tool is simple to use and offers many features that other companies charge non-insignificant amounts of money for.

Functional and simple with good support

My Honest Freshping Reviews

An amazing tool for monitoring web services!

A simple powerfull tool

I Love this software

Andrew:                                                Hello, I'm Andrew, owner. Today, I'm rating Freshping. I give it a rating of five. For more reviews like this, click below.
                                                       For me, I really didn't have a software to tell me when websites were having errors. To be honest, Freshping opened up my eyes to new softwares where it would actually make it easier for the website to send me an email versus my clients calling me going, "Hey, my website's down. Why is it down?" It usually would give me the chance to find out the website's down, fix it, and then send the customer a short email saying, "Hey, your website went down. This is what was wrong, and we're already back up and running."
                                                       Basically chose Freshping because it's the only one I really found on the market that was an easy tool to use. It made my life easier when I can set up a, "Hey, this is the error 404 message for this website. Why is it offline?" And it would send it to me instead of the client getting upset going, "Hey, my website's down. I'm losing business. Why is my website down?"
                                                       It was definitely simple to set up Freshping. You follow the step-by-step guide. For their initial system set-up, you can literally set up 50 websites at first, and anything above 50 websites is when they actually start billing you for it. For me, as a small-time website developer, getting set up with something easy was the best thing for me.
                                                       To be honest, Freshping was the best thing that happened to me and my company, so I would recommend it to anybody and everybody, even if you're just starting out as a web developer and you only have five websites. That five could turn into 15, could turn into 20. If you've got that alert system that's going to tell you when a website goes down, it just makes you look more professional.
