VPS Monitoring for Freelancers
You deployed the client's app. Now you need to know when their server is struggling, ideally before they email you about it.
Most freelancers manage one or two VPS servers for clients. Maybe it's a Laravel app on a DigitalOcean droplet, or a WordPress site on a Hetzner box. When something goes wrong at 2 AM, the client's site goes down, and you find out when they message you the next morning.
MonitorVPS watches your servers around the clock. The agent runs in the background, reports CPU, memory, and disk data every 5 minutes, and sends you an email the moment something looks off. If the server goes offline entirely, you know within minutes.
The free plan covers 2 servers, which is enough for most freelancers. If you take on more clients, the Pro plan adds up to 5 servers and webhook alerts for Slack or Discord.
2 servers free, no time limit
All core features included: CPU, memory, disk monitoring, process tracking, anomaly detection, email alerts, and 90 days of data history.
Know about problems first
Get email alerts when a server goes down or a metric exceeds your threshold. Fix the issue before your client opens a support ticket.
Install in 2 minutes
One command over SSH. No config files, no dependencies. The agent starts reporting immediately.
Spot problems early
Anomaly detection learns what's normal for each server. When a pattern changes, like a slow memory increase from a leak, you get alerted.
