Mobile alerting with tracking & escalation for Pingr
Why SIGNL4
Pingr is a cloud-based monitoring system for web sites and certificates. This tool is monitoring the status of your sites to make sure they are reachable. The monitoring dashboard gives a good overview of your sites and SIGNL4 comes in at the alerting level. If Pingr detects a problem it will automatically notify your SIGNL4 team. With on-call duty scheduling and a tiered escalation to a manager, SIGNL4 ensures that the alerts will not be lost.
