Pretty disappointing to Pingdom cripple the free plan like this without grandfathering existing free accounts. This is on top of them pushing the prices higher

Pretty disappointing to Pingdom cripple the free plan like this without grandfathering existing free accounts. This is on top of them pushing the prices higher for the rest of their plans over the last year and relentlessly spamming you with messages inside their web interface to try and get you onto a paid plan. It certainly doesn’t inspire me with any confidence to move to a paid plan with the knowledge that they will continue this sort of behaviour in future.
Anyone got a recommendation for alternative services that are similarly capable in the free tier?
- _Codemonkeyism 11y agoLooked at several services, didn't find one that offers a free tier for 1 min checks. For many this seems to be the crucial feature of their paid plans.
- umutm 11y agoIn case it helps, there is Uptime Robot (http://uptimerobot.com http://uptimerobot.com) that offers free uptime monitoring for up to 50 monitors checked every 5 minutes. And, have a pretty affordable Pro Plan (with 1-min checks). Disclaimer: Uptime Robot people here :).
