December 20, 2018 5.0 Pros Very easy to use and setup Great free plan for early stage startups Cons Sometimes it reports wobbles that Pingdom doesn't pick up.

December 20, 2018 5.0 Easy sign up, easy to add my sites/apps, and super simple to work with! Pros I love the sense of security, knowing that if my mission critical web applications go down, WebGazer will let me know right away.

Freemium plans, all the up to super affordable ;-) Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Co-Founder & CEO Food & Beverages Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Does the job" December 20, 2018 3.0 Pros Quick email notifications, so I always knew when there was a problem. Cons Our site was up and down all day, so I had dozens of emails a day that didn't really tell me much about what was wrong. Review Source William H. CTO Biotechnology Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Nice monitoring tool - simple, effective, reasonably priced" December 20, 2018 5.0 Pros Pricing and simplicity. I also like the ability to create a Dashboard page for a set of monitors that I can share. Cons Would be nice if there was an option to do a second check after a failure to make sure it's a significant failure. Sometimes I get failures posted where there doesn't appear to be any issue. Review Source Cuong T. Founder Internet Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "The Fastest Uptime Monitor Tool" December 20, 2018 5.0 Webgazer helps me forget keeping my site in mind because it has cared of for me 24/7 already. I trust it. Pros Every time my website is down, Webgazer instantly send me an alert email. I have plenty of monitor tools do the same Webgazer does, but all of them is always behind Webgazer a step and even don't send me anything. I use Webgazer a long time and it worked with no issues. Cons I hope an Android notification that I can see the alert immeadiately for mobile it will be better than email. Review Source Dieter H. Backend developer Internet Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Great service!" December 20, 2018 4.0 I really liked using WebGazer and I recommend everybody looking for a monitoring solution to try it out! Pros WebGazer is a full-featured and really good looking service. I discovered it on Product Hunt when they launched and I immediately loved it. I started tracking a couple of websites and from that point on everything just worked as it should, never had any trouble. Cons The pricing. Once they started charging to use their service (something I completely understand), I started looking for a free alternative because paying for a monitoring service wouldn't be worth it in my case.
