Frequently asked questions
What is uptime monitoring?
Uptime monitoring continuously checks that your websites, APIs, and services are accessible and responding correctly. When a check fails, you receive an alert so you can investigate and resolve the issue before it impacts your users.
How quickly will I be alerted?
MonitorHound confirms failures from multiple locations before alerting to reduce false positives. With checks as frequent as every minute on standard plans — and custom intervals available on the Enterprise plan — you can be notified quickly when an outage starts.
Do I need to install anything?
No. MonitorHound is a fully hosted service. Just sign up, add the URLs or hostnames you want to monitor, and configure your alert channels. There is nothing to install or maintain on your servers.
Is there a free plan?
Yes. The free plan includes 10 monitors with 5-minute check intervals and email and webhook alerts. No credit card is required to sign up.
What happens when a monitor detects an issue?
When a check fails, MonitorHound re-checks from additional locations to confirm the outage. Once confirmed, alerts are sent through your configured channels — email, SMS, or webhook. You will also receive a recovery notification when the service comes back online.
