Cons
“Sometimes their app would have a hiccup, causing a false positive. But the most annoying thing is that a monitoring tool like this cannot monitor a domain expiration date.”

“Dashboard is sometimes very slow when searching for a website or performing an action; not always clear that the website is in a 'loading' state.”
