About

HostTracker is a 24/7 website monitoring service that helps businesses and webmasters track availability, performance and security from over 300 global locations. With 13 monitor types, you can check HTTP/S, ping, TCP ports, transactions, web content, APIs, page speed, databases, server resources, SSL and domain expiry, plus Web Risk and DNS blacklist status. Track response times and page load speeds, receive scheduled reports, and get alerts via email, SMS, voice call, Telegram, Slack, Viber, Discord, web push or webhooks. Alert delays, active hours and maintenance windows help prevent unnecessary notifications. HostTracker also provides public status pages, a REST API and an MCP server for instant checks through AI assistants and developer tools. The free plan includes 2 monitors. Paid plans start at $10/month, with a 30-day trial including 100 monitors at 1-minute checks - no credit card required.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Efficient global monitoring and excellent detailed reports. I also like that notifications come to Telegram and Email.
  • Service provides effective global monitoring, detailed and comprehensive reports, and a much-improved user interface following the latest update.
  • Reliable uptime monitoring, accurately detecting site issues, including periodic downtime for international locations. Detailed reporting and timely alerts for immediate attention to any downtime.
  • Host-Tracker provides reliable real-time alerts, ensuring I’m instantly informed of any server issues. Its global monitoring capabilities allow me to see performance from various locations, and customizable notifications let me prioritize critical alerts.
  • Accurate uptime monitoring; Variety of server monitoring tools; Customizable alerts; New tools are constantly being added.

Cons

  • Some countries have few locations, have to add regions not needed yet to run automatic monitoring
  • Limited variety in pricing options. Personally, I would like to see more flexibility in tariff settings.
  • High price, which might be a drawback for those looking for budget-friendly solutions. Lack of live chat support, making it harder to address urgent questions quickly.
  • The free version has limited features, and the mobile app could benefit from a more intuitive design for ease of use.
  • Outdated site design; Slow support response times;

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • - The ability to easy integrate with a wide range of server types (Apache, Nginx, MySQL, Docker, Netstat). - The ability of improvements in handling heavy loads on MySQL servers indicates a tangible benefit in terms of performance optimization. - Having great support team, who helped us to configure the integrations of our servers during setup.
  • Easy to add multiple websites and servers at once. Nice status page, it is customizable and whitelabel, which is important for me and my team. Really handy documentation for adding notification channels. Having WhatsApp and SMS notification channel which is important for me and my team as well.
  • I really like their integration with Apache and MySql. I am having 5 web servers and always I had to login to each of them and make sure everything is working and fine, after using Xitoring I am able to monitor those services from their application. Even the status page is amazing.

Cons

  • Currently I do not have any dislikes about this project, I have sent some features requests, and will await to see how fast they are getting deployed :)
  • The only part I dislike is why I did not find them earlier and spent a bunch of money to other applications. They have great support which make the feature request happen! That is great.
  • I can not say anything I don't like with Xitoring, however I would like to have ability to monitor tcp and udp ports as well. It is yet not possible with them :(
