We already have an
internal monitoring system, why would we need your system?
The Internet is a
node/gateway based system. Your internal monitoring may tell you that a
device is broken inside your network or even that the outbound gateway is
having problems, but it may not inform you that inbound connections from
different nodes on the Internet are able to access your website.
AlertSwift provides monitoring from various geographically diverse
locations on different networks.

How do you determine if
a server is "up"?
Our software checks the
server response code from your host and if the server response code is
"200", "302", "301", "403" or "401", your hostname is considered "up".
