Fyipe vs Uptime Robot: What are the differences?
Fyipe: Status Page, Monitoring and On Call made simple. Fyipe gives you a beautiful and customisable status page for your online business which helps improve transparency with your customers and cuts support costs. We also monitors your website, web apps, API's and more and alerts your team via call, SMS and email when downtime happens; Uptime Robot: Free website uptime monitor. Uptime Robot is all about helping you to keep your websites up. It monitors your websites every 5 minutes and alerts you if your sites are down.
Fyipe and Uptime Robot can be categorized as "Website Monitoring" tools.
Some of the features offered by Fyipe are:
- Status Page
- On Call
- Alerts
On the other hand, Uptime Robot provides the following key features:
- http(s): that's perfect for website monitoring. The service regularly sends requests (which are the same as if a visitor is browsing your website) to the URL and decides if it is up or down depending on the HTTP statuses returned from the website (200-success, 404-not found, etc.)
- ping: this is good for monitoring a server. Ping (ICMP) requests are sent and up/down status is decided according to the "if responses are received or not". Ping is not a good fit for monitoring websites as a website (its IP) can respond to ping requests while it is down (which means that the site is down but the server hosting the site is up)
- keyword: checks if a keyword exists or not exists in a web page
