Why SIGNL4
Get website downtime alerts by SMS, phone call or email if your website is down. Uptrends checks your website availability at one-minute intervals from 225 different locations worldwide. Uptrends can send out email and SMS alerts but where SIGNL4 comes in is the ease of managing an on-call team with instant collaboration and ownership of those alerts. With persistent notifications and escalation chains there will never be a critical alert that goes unattended. SIGNL4 also offers ad-hoc collaboration between team members for each and every alert, so Subject Matter Experts can be looped in to help resolve issues.
How it Works
The SIGNL4 team email address intercepts notifications and alerts on call team members. A SIGNL4 webhook can also establish a connection with Uptrends to enable mobile notification and alerting capabilities for operational and network teams.
