Love using @updownio as one of our server monitoring providers, easily the best interface in the business and always had top notch support the rare time I have needed it.

Couldn't recommend @updownio any more. I love that they do a single thing, really well. I don't always want something as complex as others.

I was looking for a @goserverless alternative to @updownio so I can check many different websites for few $ a month but it was just before checking the pricing page.
Signup.
It's really an "inexpensive website monitoring" 👌
