Anyone know any monitoring services that will monitor mulitple servers and test they are working and alert me by mobile phone? Preferabbly at a reasonable price.

Thanks

HI!
Netsaint is lovely...

We use it to monitor over 100 servers.... :)

We monitor mail, http, ping, dns.... it works quite well... Sometimes it does crash... :(

Otherwise it is really nice and clean...

Have a great day :)

regards

I am interested in bobcares.com...what is your turn around time for sales questions?

Why not just email them with your questions? I am sure they will respond faster if asked that way then answering to a post on a forum, unless they are here as often as most of us :D

Not to mention completely off topic of the thread. please email directly so we can keep this going on the path of monitoring...

I know most folk dont like using windows stuff but have you tried "whatsupgold"? an ipswitch tool, just thought that if your a reseller and you have a perminant connection but lack the bandwidth then a tool like this is quite good. I have used it many times and think its great.

oops, but it dosent do the phone bit,

on the other hand it puts out an http page with graphics to represent your server status for each machine. Run another server on the same machine then a cron to copy the wug page to other server, other server parse using php and automaticaly run sms gateway script sending your message.:)
