HTTP and keyword checks
Watch any URL for status code, response time and a keyword in the body. Catch a broken checkout page even when the server still answers 200.
Uptime monitoring and status pages
Know before your customers do.
Pingboard checks your sites, APIs and background jobs from multiple regions, pages the right person the second something breaks, and keeps everyone updated with a status page on your own domain.

Features
Everything on-call needs, nothing it doesn't.
Pingboard covers the full life of an incident, from the first failed check to the public status update, without another dashboard nobody opens.
Ping, port, SSL and domain expiry
Check raw TCP ports and ICMP ping for infrastructure that has no web page. Get warned weeks before a certificate or a domain lapses.
Cron and heartbeat monitoring
Give a scheduled job a heartbeat URL to call. If it does not check in on time, Pingboard treats the silence itself as the incident.
Public status pages on your domain
Publish component status and incident history at status.yourcompany.com. Update it in seconds when something breaks, close it when it is fixed.
Multi-channel alerts with escalation
Page the on-call engineer first, then escalate to a backup and a manager if nobody acknowledges. Rotate schedules by day, week or custom shift.
Multi-region checks
Every check runs from several regions at once. An incident only opens once more than one region agrees, so a single bad network path never pages you at 3 a.m.
How it works
Live in under two minutes.
No agent to install for a public web check, no consultant call. Three steps and Pingboard is already watching.
- 01
Add a URL
Paste the address you want watched, pick a check type and an interval from 30 seconds to 5 minutes. Pingboard starts checking immediately.
- 02
Choose who gets alerted
Pick a channel, a contact and an escalation path. Pingboard pages the right person first and escalates on its own if nobody responds.
- 03
Publish a status page
Group monitors into components, add your domain and share the link. Incidents and scheduled maintenance post to it automatically.
What your customers see
A status page that updates itself, and a chart for everything else.
Every monitor rolls up into a component on your status page. When a check fails, Pingboard opens an incident automatically; you only have to write the update.

FAQ
Questions, answered.
Still have questions?
Email our support team at support@pingboard.us.ci. A real person replies within one business day.
How is an incident actually confirmed?
A check failing once does not open an incident. Pingboard retries from a second region before it alerts anyone, which keeps a single flaky network path from paging you for nothing.
What is the fastest check interval?
Checks run as often as every 30 seconds on Business, every 1 minute on Pro and every 5 minutes on Free. You can set a different interval per monitor.
Can I run a status page on my own domain?
Yes, on Pro and Business. Point a CNAME at Pingboard, add your domain in settings, and the page serves over HTTPS with a certificate we manage for you.
How does on-call escalation work?
Build a schedule, set an acknowledgement window, and add one or more escalation steps. If the first responder does not acknowledge in time, Pingboard pages the next step automatically.
Can I monitor internal services that are not public?
Yes. Install the Pingboard private agent inside your network and it reports check results back over an outbound connection, with no inbound port to open.
How do I reach support?
