Site24x7 - Website Monitoring Service
We are going to roll out a new user interface (UI) for Site24x7 shortly, which represents the first significant change to the interface since it was launched. We have made improvements to overall usability & accessibility and have updated colors and styles to match the Site24x7 website theme.

This update helps you to quickly access all features, data and statistics. It will be more intuitive, visual-friendly, easier to use and load faster.

A sneak-peek of the new interface can be seen below.

The new Site24x7 UI update will be rolled out to all Site24x7 users in a couple of weeks, so stay tuned.
As the load on our London server is growing, we have moved our monitoring to a new high end server.

So, if you have IP restriction in your server, you have to reconfigure the newer London server ip address in the allowed ip list. This is to make sure that our requests come through properly.

The new ip addresses of our London server are:

213.175.210.4
213.175.210.5

Similarly we have also moved our New Jersey server to a new location, whose IP address is 172.30.251.206

Kindly make the necessary configuration changes to ensure our monitoring requests hit your websites.

As announced in an earlier post, we’ve recently introduced monitoring servers in Brazil and Sweden. The Brazil server is located in Rio De Janeiro and the Swedish one is at Stockholm.

These additions further augment our global monitoring network and takes the total location count to 17. The Brazil server is our first in South America. The Sweden server is our fourth location in Europe to go with UK, Netherlands and Germany. We now offer monitoring from every continent except for Antartica!!

We will be adding more locations to our network based on user demand, so stay tuned to this space for more updates.

We recently had an update here at Site24x7. Here is a brief overview of the features/enhancements that have gone into this update.

1. Option to integrate website uptime and performance data into intranet portals/applications:

We have provided access to secure public views for all the monitors in your account. These views display the uptime and performance data of the websites you are monitoring, and these views can be easily integrated into any third-party application or corporate/intranet portals. Users can thus get a perspective of the performance of their websites from outside the datacenter, and they can get it right within any application or corporate/intranet portal.

Below is a sample Dashboard View integrated into ManageEngine Applications Manager product.

Log in to your account and visit the Portal Integration page under 'Home' tab to know more on this option.

2. Uptime buttons to showcase your website uptime

If your website is going great guns in terms of having a fantastic uptime as well as consistent performance, it would be a great idea to showcase that on your site.  You can now do that by embedding an uptime button on your website. This is a great way to demonstrate the reliability of your site to visitors and win over their confidence and trust.

3. New monitoring locations in Brazil and Sweden

Our global website monitoring network has now expanded to include 2 more locations, one in Brazil and another in Sweden. The Brazil server is located at Rio De Janeiro and the Sweden one is at Stockholm. We believe users having their customers in these parts of the world will find these locations useful for their monitoring.

What is your take on our latest enhancements? Pour in your feedback either through comments to this post or contact us directly.

We have just rolled out an iPhone client that can be used to access Site24x7 website monitoring service. The interface lets you connect to Site24x7 and view the current status of the monitors in your account.

This is useful for you to get a quick overview of the status of your web sites while you are on the move. You can view the current uptime and performance statistics for each of your web sites. You can also view SLA reports and keep track of SLA compliance. There is a separate view for outage statistics for the last 24 hours. The design comes with a tabbed interface which lets you navigate easily between these views - uptime status, SLA reports and Outages.

iPhone client for Site24x7


From the "Home" tab, you can drill down and view the global status of the website for the last 24 hours as well as view info about response time, the primary location from where the website is being monitored, next polling time, etc. From the SLA tab, you can view a summary of the various service level agreements in place. For each SLA, you can drill down and view historical data such as the SLA Goal and SLA Achieved %.

The new client will be a useful tool for webmasters or website owners to check the uptime status & SLA compliance of websites. As always, we will be improving upon this tool in the future as we go along.

Looking forward to your feedback on the new iPhone client!

Singapore location temporarily unavailable

Our Singapore location is temporarily out of service due to an undersea cable disruption in the South East Asian region. Our hosting provider has put out press release about this. In order to ensure our Singapore location users are not affected, we have shifted the monitoring to our Indian server. All the users who have configured Singapore as their primary monitoring location will now have their monitoring checks coming from India. We regret the inconvenience caused. We will be shifting the monitoring to Singapore as soon as the connection is restored. Update: Our Singapore server is now active. Monitoring has been shifted back to Singapore.
We've recently introduced APIs into Site24x7 that lets you pull website uptime & performance data from your account and work with the data in many possible ways. Anyone with programming knowledge can write a program to pull data using the APIs and integrate them into third-party applications. The APIs are Rest style web APIs over HTTP/HTTPS. The data needs to be extracted in XML format. You need to generate an API key to start using the APIs. To generate the key, use the Generate API key option under Account tab inside your account. You may refer this page to know more about Site24x7 APIs. For help on working with the APIs, you can refer our online help documentation. We will be enhancing the APIs as we go along, so feel free to try out the APIs and provide your feedback.

If your servers are located in India or if your company has business interests in the Indian region, it is definitely worthwhile to keep track of how your website is behaving for Indian users. Now you can accomplish this by making use of our new Indian monitoring location. You just need to configure a website monitor in Site24x7 and select the Indian server for your site. Site24x7 will then continuously monitor your website from India and send out alerts if there are any problems such as downtime or slow page loading. The Indian server is located in the city of Chennai in the southern part of India. This is our 4th monitoring location in Asia after Singapore, China and Japan. With the addition of this new monitoring location, the number of locations in our Global Website Monitoring Network has gone up to 15.
