Pingdom black friday deal
https://www.pingdom.com/pricing
Even when it says 20% off, in fact it appears to be around 55% off (only if paid annually).
Is this a good offer? What good alternatives are there?
Comments
Was there really a need for a new thread when i already stated it in the other black friday thread..?
Not sure why SAAS providers don't offer higher discount like 80-90% to lure people in.
Nothing to lose for them.
Pingdom is so damn expensive and with the lowest plan you only get 10 checks. There's better services out there like Uptimerobot for cheaper.
A little offtopic.
Anybody knows a service like pingdom supporting HTTP POST checks with raw data? Pingdom does, but for some reason it's broken for my data inputs.
Even at 50% off their service pricing is ridiculous IMO.
We do. Give our free trial a go and see if we can meet your need.
I think most hosting providers can offer a monitoring service at a more affordable price....
NodePing does and it works really nicely
Even with 50% off, it is still overpriced.
Thank you, I will take a look on it!
You have any black Friday promo as well ??
@Umair, sorry, no promos.
+1 for nodeping
That's too bad :P
So just checking again.
Anyone came across any other deal from a monitoring site (or even some script / tool?)
Looks like Pingdom is flying solo on this so far ....
Yeah, I am looking for additional monitoring to add to my current solutions.
Plenty of alternative solutions around.
@WebProject - feel free to list them.
There are many solutions around. But we were looking for the ones offering any promo for BF/CM.
Do you use Google? Google list for you:

I took Starter plan with 60% discount on https://appbeat.io
Works like a charm.
@kostas82 - what is yhe discount code or it's no longer available?
@AlexBarakov: I didn't enter any code, discount was automatically applied when I finalized purchase.
Unless you're after the public facing page, all of this could be setup with open source software + self hosted fairly easy, including multi-location checks.
So, um, how are you enjoying that unknown Samsung tablet? (tell us what model pls)
I like Monit.
Try http://www.uptimedoctor.com/en/. Is the best which is 5 monitoring with 1 minute interval is FREE.
Never heard of them before.
What will you recommend for self-hosted option ?
which has multi-location check and also easy to manage/maintain ??
I also never heard of AppBeat before, but I am testing it now. They have very powerful and fast interface (supporting HTTP2, IPv6, sending custom post data, specifying user agent, regex matching, ...)
