MonitorFree is VPS monitoring that lets you fix things, not just watch them break. Get live CPU, memory, disk, and network metrics every 15 seconds across Linux and Windows servers, plus alerts the moment a port opens, a watched file changes, or a disk starts failing. Then act: reboot, restart a service, kill a process, or tail a log, straight from the dashboard, no SSH required (a full terminal is right there too). Share servers with teammates and pay nothing for small setups.

Hey Product Hunt 👋 I built MonitorFree because every "server monitoring" tool I tried gave me a pretty graph and then made me SSH in anyway to actually do something about it — restart a hung service, check what changed in a config, see why a port suddenly opened. MonitorFree is the dashboard I wanted: live metrics, file/port watchers, SMART disk health, external uptime checks, AND the ability to actually act (reboot, restart, kill, tail logs) without leaving the browser. There's still a full SSH terminal + SFTP browser built in for when you want the real shell — it's just not the only way in anymore. Free tier covers a couple of small servers with zero setup. Would love your feedback, especially on what remote actions you'd want whitelisted next.

Sick of SSHing in at 2am, so I built this instead

Quick story: every "server monitoring" tool I tried did the same thing show me a nice graph, then leave me to open a terminal anyway the moment something actually went wrong. CPU spike at 2am? Cool, now go SSH in, find the process, kill it, restart the service, hope it comes back clean. The monitoring part was never the hard part. The fixing part was.

So I built MonitorFree. It's live CPU/memory/disk/network metrics like you'd expect, plus file and listening-port change watchers, a correlated "what happened" timeline when an alert fires so you're not piecing together three different logs by hand, and SMART disk health checks that catch a failing drive before it takes the server down.
