Improved Testing & Charting

2 min read We’ve rolled out an additional 10 servers (spread geographically) in the last week and these servers are already up and running. With these additional servers we now have over 80 running in operation querying sites at a rate of around 25,000 per a minute. This means each server is doing less work now and thus continuing to ensure no delays in testing

Alternative to Internetseer.com

2 min read At Internetseer.com if you’re looking for free website monitoring your websites will only be monitored every hour.  But what happens if your site is checked by Internetseer and then goes down for 55 minutes?  You’d never have known about your website’s downtime.  And in the meantime you’d have lost money, customers and your hard earned reputation.

Downtime Alert Improvements!

2 min read We recently sent out a customer survey and in which we asked users what they thought of every aspect of StatusCake – the single aspect which came in top in terms of marks was reliability and trustworthiness of alerts. It’s the core of our product so it makes sense that we want to get it right and as the survey showed it was clear we were hitting the nail on the head in almost all cases – but there was a niggling 2% of users who rated it under 5/5 and it’s only right we don’t ignore that.

Pricing Changes At StatusCake

2 min read We’re grandfathering current prices for all our paid StatusCake users forever – you’ll continue to pay the same amount that you’ve always paid, except that we’ll be adding even more features, even more customer service. More bang for your buck! And if you’re not already on a paid plan don’t worry. If you sign-up up for a paid plan prior to the new prices taking effect on 29th November you’ll still be grandfathered in at the current prices for the lifetime of your subscription.
