PingPing

Hey makers and hunters 👋 PingPing is a no-frills website and SSL monitoring solution. It provides up to 30 days of performance statistics, a public status page, and downtime/certificate notifications via e-mail, slack, discord, and webhook. I often found myself paying for features that I didn't need with competitor products. My goal with PingPing is to focus on simplicity for the end user, both the user experience and user interface. The result is the product you see today: an uptime and SSL monitoring platform that maximizes usability. A facet of simplicity is the pricing model. That is why I created a pricing model for people who just want to know if their websites are down. Nothing more. The base plan allows for unlimited websites, and higher tiers introduce the ability for teams to utilize the service. I'm a strong supporter of the OSS community, so you will also find a free pricing tier for open source maintainers and projects. 🎁 You can try the service for free for 7 days, no credit card required. As a ProductHunt member, you can use the coupon code "PRODUCTHUNTLAUNCH" for 20% off your first six months. Coupon is valid until Dec. 31th 23:59 UTC. 🙏 I'd love to get some feedback and I'm more than happy to answer your questions!

Hey @stefanbauerme 👋 Nice looking 👌 service 👍 I'm curious how do you avoid running into abusive polling? As an example: 1. To check your service I used "google.com", 2. I guess that was not only me 3. If you will have 4K users like me, your IP's might get noticed at Google 4. You receive abuse complaint 🤔

Whenever one of my sites has gone offline, PingPing was there to notify me right away.

The user interface is simple to use and looks good on the eye. Also, I can give a monitor-specific live status page to my co-workers and customers, - so that they also know at every time if the site is down.

I would not only recommend PingPing to any company and person who fears that their sites could go down, but I've already recommended it to a bunch of people.

Pros:

Simple and intuitive UI, reliable service

Cons:

None!

Hey @stefanbauerme sounds a great product. I'd suggest a couple of copy improvements: - change the "I" in "Do you build Open-Source Software? I offer a..." to "We", i.e. "Do you build Open-Source Software? We offer a..." - I found the "Unlike other monitoring platforms, you can't only set your check interval frequency to a minimum of 5 minutes, 30 seconds or 1 minute. " bit difficult to read, and I'm still not too sure what it means ;) I'd change it all to something like: Unlike other monitoring platforms that check every 5 minutes, your website can be checked every 30 seconds, depending on your plan. [bold]Know within seconds when there's a problem so you can take immediate action.[/bold] Looks a great service, like the simplicity of it - good luck with it all! 😄

A big round of applause for @stefanbauerme 👏 - I love the UI and UX - The simplicity of the app - The growing list of features - How it stands out in an already crowded space Good luck!

I was impressed by how polished and well thought out this simple tool is.

The decision to focus on doing one thing very well rather than diversify and try to be a all-in-one web monitoring toolbox was a good one, in my opinion.

Excited to see where this product goes over the next few months.

I have only tried it out for a personal side project, but will be recommending this at work.

Pros:

Very smooth UI, simple to use and focues on doing one thing well

Cons:

Cant think of any at the moment

Nice admin backend. Good luck with the project Stefan!
