About Spokes is a complete self-hosted text, voice, and video chat platform for your family, friend group, or small team. A simple, private alternative to Discord and Slack with organized channels, low-latency voice/video rooms with noise cancellation, shared photo albums, a group calendar, and free native iOS & Android apps with encrypted push notifications. Everything runs on your hardware inside a single Docker container with no external database required. Every new server installation comes with a 2-month free trial of native mobile push notifications (no credit card required). After that, an optional Spokes Pass ($45/year per server) unlocks the mobile push notification relay for your entire server and directly funds continued development. Licenses are strictly per-server. There are no per-user fees and never will be.

Setup takes only a few clicks. For faster checks and advanced features, paid plans offer 1-minute or 30-second intervals, along with SSL certificate, domain expiry, and heartbeat (cron job) monitoring. You can also create up to 100 status pages, customize them to match your brand, protect them with a password, and allow subscribers to receive updates. Get notified instantly via email, SMS, voice calls, or integrations with Slack, Zapier, PagerDuty, Splunk On-Call, Telegram, Webhooks, Discord, Mattermost, Pushbullet, Microsoft Teams, Google Chat, Pushover, and more.

		Pros from Real Users Pros Easy set-up Good overview/dashboard Slim design Already good features in the free version No SPAM Mails, Pop-Ups, constant tries to upsell Easy to use. Easy deployment. It is very cheap compared to other complex and very expensive tools. It has many configuration options. Easy to set up and maintain. Clean and simple user interface. Smart alerts and notifications that don't bombard you with information or repeated requests. We needed a solution to keep a track of how of service, If everything is indeed up. Datadog was too intense. Found uptime to be perfect for our scale. Instant communication on downtime. This is a life saving feature. I like the mobile app version as well Monitors multiple websites easily. Notify you when they're an issue. Reports the length of the outage. Affordable. Used to work, but this is no longer the case. This service cannot be relied on and the support is abysmal. I reported that I have 2 accounts, identical monitor on each. One reported 7 minutes downtime, the other 45 minutes, which one is correct? - their answer: "this is normal". Huh??
