Can't say enough about how I feel about Assembly. It's such a great way to launch that idea you had but never got started.

Thanks for the thoughts, I'll have to think pretty heavily on the pay-only service. There are many companies out there that have done well with a try before you buy model. You make a valid point with the fact that we have already open

Thats good advice though one part confused me. Are you saying our pro package is too cheap or too expensive? Right now the main difference between our pro and free accounts is the number of monitors available. With free you can only have 2

Ok so you would be fine with 9.99 a monitor but more likely to buy if it was in a tiered package. Thanks!

Thanks, that helps a ton with a future direction where our monitors are server based. What we have right now is all external monitors. Think along the lines of Pingdom but a lot more types of monitors.

Thats fair, I'll make sure we add at least screenshots in the future.

Right now we don't have any demo, but you can sign up and if you like it you can choose to upgrade. Upgrade gives you more monitors and more intervals but everything else is the same between free and non-free accounts.

That is some good feedback, we have a bounty open to revise the "responsiveness" of our site. To make it work a bit better cross platform. We move pretty fast I doubt it would take us very long to have that fixed up.

All interesting projects with their own twist on it. The space we are aiming to hit can be equated to IFTTT + Nagios.

True, that is something worth looking into. We are also of course looking at setting up some Docker images for quick and speedy deployments.

Hey jprince, I'd have to look at the "Not Idle" monitors for dynos that don't exist. The way that monitor works is it looks at the monitor status to see if any are idle, if there are no dynos then there would be none idl

Also if you wanted to stand up your own instance you could follow this. http://runbook.readthedocs.org/en/master/developers/install/ It's geared more towards a development environment for the reason

Thats a good point, right now we work solely off of API's and don't offer any way for us to store usersnames/passwords. The thought is that API credentials can be revoked easier. In general we are looking to meet the market o
