Which of these two do you think is more reliable? We have been using hyperspin for the last two years, but right now are looking to switch to pingdom due to their pricing. They offer 1 minute monitoring at only $0.5/month, compared to $12/month with hyperspin. I have been testing pingdom over the last two weeks, and they seem to be quite reliable.
View 14 RepliesI have been using siteuptime.com and they seem to be working well, but since I do a content check (making sure vBulletin and MySQL are working) and I want two minute checks, I pay two extra $5 charges, so it comes out to $15 to check my one site.
I read about hyperspin the other day and they do 2 minute checks (with content check - looking for keywords on page) for around $5 a month.
So, from a cost perspective hyperspin is a third of the cost of siteuptime for my needs (2 minute check, look for keywords).
I am curious about people that have used both. Are they both equally reliable? Has anyone had any problems with hyperspin?

is this a trustworthy and accurate resource?
Pingdom vs Others - Monitoring Uptime Tools
So i looking to buy a quality and reliable uptime monitoring service. I have been testing PingDom free trial, and all the reports went fine. Also the interface is good looking and as public reports to show to clients.
So in terms of use and fuctions, Pingdom is perfect for me, but i wanted to know if Pingdom is a quality / rock-solid / reliable service? Or its just has a beutiful interface?
Any bad or good experiences with Pingdom?
Note: From many other posts i see that Alertra is a quality and reliable service.
So when comparing to PingDom will Alertra be much more reliable?
if it is possible to setup a page like this with their public reports feature?

I tried looking for Pingdom forums, but they seem to be offline.

I use Pingdom "Pro" (or whatever the paid version is to be branded as), and I think it is fantastic. It is yet to let us down or misinform us. It'll be interesting to see whether we see quality dilution from the inevitable rush of freebie accounts.
