Advanced Multi-Location Server Monitor and Alert

Monitor Uptime, Web, Email, DNS, SQL and More...

Perfect for web hosts, dedicated server admins and webmasters of mission critical systems.

For business, 100% availability of servers, devices and services are critical. If you manage an on-line or mission-critical system, particularly in eCommerce, knowing that your networking components are available is of the highest importance.

Othello::Servers Advanced Systems Monitoring provides a continual external check on your servers, allowing you to be notified if a service [port] on your own (in-house), dedicated or collocated server fails or is not responding correctly.

For example, by monitoring port 80 (web) and port 25 (smtp/email) you could know if your visitors can see your webpage and send you email ! For a minimal charge per day we can monitor services such as HTTP, FTP, IMAP, SMTP, POP3, MYSQL, SSH, TELNET etc.

This is advanced, intuitive monitoring based on Nagios technology - get notified of outages before your clients start to call, and be back up before they could notice !
