Added to my collection of website monitoring tools: https://www.producthunt.com/@kon...
I will also add it to my list of 100+ website monitoring services here: http://www.supermonitoring.com/b... (with the next update).
Good luck!
@itsnblackburn it's definitely on the list, I figured it was reasonable low priority compared to other features but I will make note :) thanks!
I just wanna say this: I’ll happily try, use, and pay for anything created by @tjholowaychuk. I look forward to using this!
Hey everyone! Thanks in advance for checking out my first product Apex Ping. I'll be continuing to add new features and improving reporting, happy to hear any suggestions you might have!
@tjholowaychuk first off, thanks for being such a great inspiration for all engineers looking to start their own thing - bootstraping anything ain't easy at all. i love the fact that you share your process along the way.
re product feedback - have you considered making it even more API oriented by supporting things such as "chained" (or connected) checks.
eg. login - get auth token then reuse the auth token to do fetch a resource etc.
@vesln thanks man! Should be fun :). I've thought about leveraging scripting for the assertion side of things, but using it for full control over the requests could be pretty interesting!
@tjholowaychuk just wanted to +1 on what @vesln - thanks for being an inspiration to a ton of engineers :)
@tjholowaychuk Great job! Given your price for 30 checks, the one thing that keeps me with Pingdom is the Public Status Page. If you can make this happen, you've got yourself a new customer :)
@benoit great to hear! I'll have it in the pipeline soon. Updates will be in-app / https://blog.apex.sh/ if you're interested in staying informed there
Hey everyone, now that coupons are supported I just wanted to jump in and offer a 15% off for 6 months coupon for PH viewers, use the "product-hunt" coupon when selecting a plan.
Hey what do you think about having a public page feature, would be great to use it and it's amazing design to show as my NodeHost status page. :) But even without this is an amazing looking and fast service, you have done amazing!
I've been using Apex Ping for https://standupjack.com. It's much cleaner & easier to use than the other services and has saved my butt on a number of occasions already. Highly recommended!
Love how simple the process was to signup and get going, less than 30 seconds and I'm in action!
@anthonysapien not yet, you could hack it with a shared github or twitter account, but I'd like to improve that situation. I'll have announcements here if you're interested https://blog.apex.sh/
Love the design and how easy it is to use. Congrats!
I think the only thing missing it's a way to share the status page to the public. Is it possible?
What a beautiful dashboard! I'm super impressed by all the features you're covering on this first release, super awesome work man!
The UI looks great, so clean and fresh. I will try it out with our sites and API and hope that it can replace our currently used ping tool which has a terrible UI. 2 big plus points for me are Apex Ping’s Slack integration & the bootstrapping 🙌
Sup TJ, I know your big in the open source world, So I'm sure this is going to be awesome :)
