Monitoring server downtime

...any recommendations?

[giggle]

Hi

Does anyone use any software to alert them should there server go down?

There are so many out there and I find it very difficult to make a selection, so I would appreciate any recommendations from people that are happy with their server monitoring systems.

Thanks.

I use Nagios, which is open-source and I've been quite happy with it.

We've had threads on this in the past, might be worth a search. I found this one (I'm sure there are others):-
