How it works

How Odown's uptime monitoring works

  1. Add a monitor. Enter the URL of a website, page or API endpoint. For APIs, set the HTTP method, headers, body and authentication.
  2. Choose how often to check. Anywhere from every minute to once every 24 hours, on every plan.
  3. Odown checks it from around the world. Requests run from 17 regions across North America, Europe, Asia, Australia and South America, so you can see whether a problem is global or limited to one region. Failed requests are retried, and you choose how many failed checks in a row confirm an outage (3 by default), so a one-off network glitch doesn't wake anyone up.
  4. Get alerted the moment it fails. By email, SMS, Slack, Discord, Telegram, PagerDuty, Opsgenie or webhook.
  5. See what happened. Uptime and response time charts, with each request broken down into DNS, TCP and time to first byte, and a result log going back up to a year.

We support alerts on 8 different platforms, including...

Website monitoring FAQ

What is website monitoring?

Website monitoring is checking a website automatically at regular intervals to confirm it is up and responding quickly, and alerting someone when it is not. Uptime monitoring is the same idea focused on availability: is the site reachable right now, and how often has it been down?

How often does Odown check my website?

As often as every minute, or as rarely as once every 24 hours. You choose the interval per monitor, and every plan includes one-minute checks.

Where are the checks run from?

From 17 regions worldwide, including Virginia, Ohio, California, Oregon, Montreal, São Paulo, Ireland, London, Paris, Frankfurt, Stockholm, Mumbai, Singapore, Tokyo, Osaka, Seoul and Sydney.

Can Odown monitor APIs as well as websites?

Yes. A monitor can send any HTTP method with your own headers, body and credentials, so you can check API endpoints as well as public pages.

How will I be alerted when my site goes down?

By email, SMS, Slack, Discord, Telegram, PagerDuty, Opsgenie or webhook. You can create as many alert channels as you need and turn each one off for specific monitors, so different monitors can alert different people.

How does Odown avoid false alarms?

Each failed request is retried before it counts as a failure, and an outage is only confirmed after a number of failed checks in a row that you choose per monitor (from 1 to 10, 3 by default). Recovery works the same way (2 successful checks by default), so a single slow or dropped request doesn't trigger an alert.

How much does website monitoring cost?

Plans start at $12 a month for 10 monitors, with Pro at $29 a month for 40 monitors and Advanced at $249 a month for 300. Every plan starts with a free 14-day trial, and no credit card is needed.
