Comparison
InBrief as an alternative to Pingdom
A Pingdom alternative focused on what customers see during an outage, priced one capability at a time.
What people weigh when they look
This page describes what InBrief does and what it costs. It makes no claim about what Pingdom charges or offers - check that on their own site, where it is current.
- The part you actually need is the customer-facing page, not a wider performance-monitoring practice around it.
- You want the page, the checks and the alerting as separate line items you can drop individually.
- You want the page to stay reachable when the systems it reports on are not.
