No, there is no client software to install and no updates to your website required
to use our service. We monitor over the web, so UptimeAuditor does not require
any software at the client web site. All monitoring services work remotely
from our servers. You will be able to view account history details and have
results emailed to you. Back to top
Often, your servers appear to be working fine from your office. You can retrieve
web pages, ping the router, etc. UptimeAuditor does more than monitoring the up/down
status of your web site and web server. Individual servers (SMTP, DNS, HTTP, etc)
are checked with their respective protocols to ensure the server itself is responding
properly. Most important, UptimeAuditor tells you if your servers are available to
your customers and the world, because we perform monitoring over the internet from multiple different locations. Back to top

to constantly check it, to know it is available. The problem is compounded the more sites you have. It is possible for a site

only lost income, but website credibility as well. Back to top

Yes, we monitor from a global monitoring network. At a time, one of the locations will check your website or server. If it detects an error, another location will check again to confirm. All reported downtime are confirmed by at least 2 locations, this eliminates any false alarm.
As we grow, we will add more monitoring locations in different locations worldwide to increase our coverage. Back to top
