PingWise

Quorum-based uptime monitoring that only alerts when probes agree

About PingWise

PingWise checks your sites from 15 probes across 6 continents and uses quorum consensus to confirm an outage before alerting, which cuts false positives. It is credit-based instead of subscription-based, with 650,000 free credits every month and prepaid packs above that.
