### "More reliable than other services I've used"

June 27, 2021

5.0

Better accuracy of uptime stats and alerting, recommended!

Pros

I've used a few services for uptime monitoring. I have found Freshping to be more reliable at detecting donwtime than some of the other services.

Cons

I wish their website was (fully) mobile compliant or they had a mobile app.

Alternatives considered

### "Insping is an easy to use and reliable status monitor"

May 17, 2018

4.0

Pros

I've been using insping for the past year and I like that they are easy to use and reliably up. The service is offered for a great price and the team is active and supportive which is great!

Cons

The design and feel to the site could be a little better but it's not a big issue. Also if there was a way to snooze alerts on a certain service for a few hours which development is happening that'd be great

### "Just moved form UptimeRobot, Never looking back"

June 10, 2021

4.0

When Uptime Robot became all nosy about their services and started changing their plan features, We at ORNG decided to find an alternative, I found about freshping via reddit and gave it a try. it fits well in our needs for monitoring our servers. 10/10 Never looking back at Uptime Robot.

Pros

It provides a really good value for their free tier. We may look into upgrading but for now, looks like our monitoring needs are well fit into the free tier.

Cons

The status page looks a bit dated, maybe a refresh would make it look better.

### "Great service for cheap"

July 16, 2021

5.0

Pros

This was an easy decision to get setup. I manage multiple locations and to have Freshping monitor and notify me of internet outages is excellent.

Cons

Integration with Freshservice needs to be improved. Instead of multiple tickets in Freshservice, the integration should utilize the Freshservice Alert system instead of creating tickets.

### "Top notch!"

May 10, 2021

4.0

Pros

I switched to Freshworks/Freshping from another provider we've used for a few years and couldn't be happier with the decision to switch. Service is feature-rich, easy to use, reliable and gives us added peace of mind. We'll definitely be recommending to others!

Cons

So far, no complaints! I only wish "Dark mode" for status page(s) was an option.

### "The perfect solution for displaying the Server status"

October 4, 2021

5.0

Very user friendly and have recently updated their UI/UX greatly

Pros

I love that the software had evolved over the years, and has developed robust features. They also have very tiered pricing, including free and trial options for start-up projects to take advantage and as they grow they can up their game and productivity.

Cons

Nothing major that I dislike, I will have to use it longer to share.

### "Easy to use website monitor"

June 4, 2021

5.0

Pros

I liked the ease of use and setup, it takes hardly a minute to set this thing up and run it automatically. We can get alerts as notifications to know exactly when the site is down.

Cons

Nothing as of now, its working pretty well for me on all the metrics.

Reason for choosing Freshping

Because I was recommended by a colleague.

### "Great service to use for monitoring uptime."

May 17, 2018

5.0

Easy monitoring straight to slack which makes it nice and simple to check service uptime.

Pros

I like the fact that I can integrate this service in Slack to monitor domain names and server hostnames and be alerted via the Slack mobile app so I can easily pick up alerts and resolve any issue with minimal downtime or before someone alerts me something is down.

Cons

I have noticed a couple of false alarms with this system where it says a domain name is not responding but when checking it is up - this could be because I'm on the free plan with a 5 minute check up period.

### "A great tool for monitoring services "

February 8, 2021

5.0

Pros

This tool is really simple to use and in a few minutes allows you to have full control over the status of the public services (internal and external) in use. The fact that there are no unnecessary features and that it is entirely focused on its primary purpose is a great advantage.

Cons

Nothing at the moment. The tool is graphically quite essential, but this cannot be considered a defect.

### "Easy to setup, never needs attention and free"

February 7, 2021

5.0

I've tried a few other 'downtime' tools to monitor my site. Fresh ping was the most reliable and can't beat the price!

Pros

It's free. It's easy to setup. From tests with other similar tools, Fresh ping has come out of top for the most important feature for me, reliability.

Cons

Nothing so far. I've been using it over 6 months.

### "Easy setup, good insights"

October 21, 2021

5.0

Overall great product! Would recommend it to smaller teams and anyone who has not yet a monitoring setup. This comes as first aid but is so much more with premium features available already in free plan.

Pros

Really easy setup time, you have your dashboard an reporting setup in no time. Also great that you can give a link to a status board to other people (e.g. customers or other teams).

Cons

Only based in the U.S. so all request originate from the U.S. - unfortunately, our market will be Germany only for quite some time. Also, sometimes alerts take some time. Might be you notice outage before the email but this might be due to our low plan.

### "Freshping pings right on time"

May 31, 2021

5.0

As a whole my overall experience has been really very great and superb. Most Importantly I was in search of something free or economical.

Pros

It is amazing to see that the free version lets us to do decent monitoring of many domains and quickly pings an alert incase of an error has. It also allows to make our uptile public which is really great to gain customers trust and confidence.

Cons

There is no option to change the language and also the ability to choose the style or view of the status is limited.

Pros

Real-time, customizable TCP transaction check with an alert!?!! Love it!

Cons

Nothing I don't like, perhaps a voip alert that measures MOS?
