Automation of the website monitoring tasks for your website
How recently did you monitor your website (and also servers and network services)? Do you scheduling your website monitoring works in some mater? Can you be sure your website is running at the moment? Now I suppose that you are starting your web-browser, typing the URL and monitoring if it is still present. Seems like the things are good… But may it be the page is just found in the browser cache? One more full reload… Being in luck for now! But are you convinced it was responding yesterday, two weeks ago, or last month? Every hosting provider will grant you a 99.9% uptime. Well, I think you would prefer to know that guaranteed.
Imagine that your prospective clients opening your website but it’s accidentally not responding. They see some error message or even white page. How do you think, how much of clients will leave and will never come back? Well, maybe some of them will try again later. But anyway, people like to make their purchases on the stable and safe websites. If you are owning some kind of network business, you better be sure, your visitors can browse your website and get information, stuff, and products they are looking for. Any unexpected error means loss of visitors that, in its turn, means loss of business.
You may tell that this is life, everything happens, and you can’t completely avoid downtimes. That is half-way correct. You cannot completely avoid them, but you can of course minimize them! The precedently you will know about any issue, the sooner you are able to take the action and resolve it. Call your website provider, review some network services, etc.

By the way, the program can make use of the proxy server, and connect to the password protected parts of the website. Also you may want to monitor your network using the FTP, FTPS and SFTP protocols. And monitor your mail server (POP3 monitor, SMTP monitor) to be sure that you are able to get e-mail letters from the customers and they can receive messages from you.
ProtoMon can execute the batch files on your network server through the Telnet or SSH monitors, then get and check their output. This allows you to monitor almost each aspect of your server including the CPU load, memory usage and much more.
If any error found, the monitoring tool will give you a notice by displaying the pop-up message, playing some sound file, starting any script or URL, or sending a notification email message to the desired recipients.
