PagerDuty provides alerting, on-call scheduling, escalation policies and incident tracking to increase uptime of your apps, servers, websites and databases. Their pricing and features have gotten a lot better recently. They were far too pricey and keeping features for only the higher thresholds before. #devops #startups #alerts #organization #YC_funded #monitoring #paid #SaaS #trial #dev #$IT_management #industry_bigs #incident_management #$AFMA #@to_use #research #push #escalation #on_call #$kippt_bookmark_lists #middle_priced #pub

The parent comapny for CopperEgg, Precise, Up.Time (Uptimesoftware). All look cheesy and over-priced, etc. CopperEgg forced all free accounts out. No grandfathering of any capacity - #badyou

Well, they seem to allow Windows XP and if I get it via the Github Student Pack, I get 10 systems for free for a certain amount of time. And the free isn't so bad either. 5 hosts so I'd need two accounts. Possibly 1 Datadog free and 1 iStat Menu for Macs and newer Windows OSes. There's 5 Windows XP computers running right now, 1 Vista. #monitoring #servers #freemium #trial #dev #devops #sysadmin #$AFMA #@to_use #alerts #charts #paid #student_pricing #app_monitoring #beer_money #$IT_management #windows #windows_xp #cross-platform #pub

Maybe? Allows up to 10 free. #beer_money #$IT_management #monitoring #sysadmin #windows #windows_xp #cross-platform #pub

Not sure how this works exactly. #beer_money #$IT_management #monitoring #sysadmin #windows #windows_xp #cross-platform #open_source #not_sure #pub

Even if this works with Windows XP, problem is they require you to pay for a year and it's $18/year/computer. So I'd have to pay $180 up front essentially. #beer_money #$IT_management #monitoring #sysadmin #windows #windows_xp #cross-platform #pub

Not for Windows XP. Super cheap since there's a K for the Mac management app and $5 for the iOS management app. Computer needs to be publicly available. Hamachi solves that for me, though have to see if it'll solve it for the iOS version. #beer_money #$IT_management #monitoring #sysadmin #windows #cross-platform #cheap #pub
