Hey.
I'm using Vultr (+ServerPilot) to host my prelanders and I would like to add a service that will monitor and alert in real time if there is any issue with my servers. I want it to monitor if the servers are up/down of course, but I also want it to monitor if there are any issues during peak traffic times that will require me to upgrade my servers (things like cpu and memory usage during peak traffic times).
In addition, I'm looking for a service that will monitor and alert if my domains are not working and also if they are flagged.
Can anyone recommend any service(s) for the above?
Thanks.
Monitis would get my vote.
Also I wouldn't mess with servers when these days.
You got tools like LanderLab which offer 100% uptime, templates and visual editors.
https://uptimerobot.com/ is a good choice too

site24x7.com is pretty good as well and slightly cheaper but also it has less features if compared with Monitos, If you only need to monitor server performance and uptime site24x7 should do the trick. Uptimerobot is also good but it is more for uptime only and also has good option to monitor SSL validation without any extra settings in there.
opsdash is offered as selfhosted and is fine as well.
We use uptimerobot.com
I used to use Pingdom, also heard good things about UptimeRobot.
Btw if you would use Digital Ocean they've got internal monitoring where you can setup notifications if the CPU, memory etc. is above x% level etc.
Thanks for the replies everyone.
Here is another option I found for monitoring your servers (free unless you need something very specific). It was recommended in few reddit threads which people had issues with uptimerobot. I also emailed them and their support was quick and helpful:

Their blacklist monitoring (for your domains) doesn't cover Google's Safe Browsing, but it seems like non of the domain monitoring services cover it due to terms/pricing changes by Google. So I will probably just write a script that uses Google's Safe Browsing API to check if my domains are listed or not every 12 hours.
