Improving usability of Monitis

POSTED ON: June 13, 2012 POSTED BY zhirayr

We are working hard to improve the user experience of our users and today we are announcing the launch of three new features, that we believe will improve your user experience with Monitis. The first new feature lets users export their tests configuration to a CSV file. The exported file contains basic information about user’s tests such as test name, URL, testing locations, test frequency for each location, etc. It also contains maintenance periods and notification rules defined for individual tests as well as those defined for groups of tests.

Monitis Monitoring Strategies- Start Small and Go Big! (Part 2)

POSTED ON: March 13, 2012 POSTED BY Joe Kern

In part one of the Monitis Monitoring Strategies we covered a simple approach to begin monitoring, in this article (Part 2), we will begin to examine the details of Low Cost External monitoring.


 

 

  • Uptime Monitoring
  • Basic Performance Monitoring
  • Detailed Reporting


Uptime Monitoring is often the first solution to current downtime or the risk of downtime.  This could be called “Hard Downtime”.  Hard Downtime can be described by no response from the site, server, port, or service.  This type of down time often does not come with hip error pages, or the ever popular “under construction” pages with goofy images of road construction.

The simplicity of server monitoring: Monitis & M3

POSTED ON: November 11, 2011 POSTED BY Dan Fruehauf


M3 (Monitis Monitor Manager) framework usage and examples were outlined in a few previous articles:
M3 – introduction
Planning your vacation / HTTP extraction
However we’ve never explained the bits and bytes behind it and what was the initial motivation for implementing it.
This article will outline the motivation, design, implementation and perhaps also the future road map for M3.
Rereading my previous articles I realized that I generated a somewhat steep learning curve for using M3 with the complex examples provided, just because M3 can handle these complex scenarios.

Too busy to go premium? Our New Upgrade Wizard will do it for you

POSTED ON: July 19, 2011 POSTED BY don

Mon.itor.us is our 100% free website and server monitoring service. It is unique among similar services in that it imposes no cap on the number of URL’s monitored. As a result, we have some users monitoring hundreds, even thousands of URL’s from one account, for free, forever. That’s great, but what if you want to upgrade to our premium service, Monitis? Until now, you had to set everything up from scratch, but we’ve decided to make it extremely easy with a new Upgrade Wizard. It walks you through easy steps that allow you to select the monitors you’d like to keep and/or add in your upgraded account.
