Good websites don't just work,
They are cared for.
You shouldn't have to wonder if your website is okay, especially when so much depends on it.
From the basics to the stuff most people forget to check, Vigilant covers it all.
Downtime doesn't book a meeting first.
Without monitoring, you find out from frustrated customers, after they've already left. Every minute of downtime costs you customers and revenue you'll never recover.
The cost of not knowing.
Without monitoring, you're leaving money on the table because you simply don't know your site is failing.
Critical monitoring. Zero compromise.
Running a website without monitoring is like driving blindfolded. These aren't nice-to-have features, they're requirements for any serious online presence.
Worldwide Coverage
Global Uptime Monitoring
Every second offline costs you customers and revenue. Get instant alerts from multiple global locations the moment your site goes down before your customers notice and leave.
Instant Alerts
Smart Notifications
Alerts are worthless if you miss them. Get notified instantly where you're already working. React in minutes, not hours.

Performance Tracking
Slow sites kill conversions. A 1-second delay can reduce conversions by 7%. Track performance automatically and fix issues before they drain your revenue.
Uptime checks alone are dangerously incomplete.
Your site can be "up" but still broken. Checkout fails, pages return errors, performance craters. Basic pings miss the failures that actually cost you money. Complete monitoring isn't optional, it's essential.
Your revenue depends on critical flows working.
A broken checkout is invisible until customers complain and leave. Vigilant runs through your critical flows like a real customer, catching failures the instant they happen. Every broken step is lost revenue.

Visual flow editor with real-time feedback. See exactly what's being tested and fix issues before they cost you sales.
When infrastructure fails, everything fails.
DNS misconfigurations cause hours of total downtime. Expired certificates trigger security warnings that drive away 90% of visitors. Unpatched vulnerabilities invite breaches. These aren't edge cases, they're existential threats.
DNS Monitoring
One misconfigured DNS record takes your entire site offline for hours. No visitors, no sales, total blackout. Vigilant alerts you the instant DNS changes. Catch malicious modifications or accidental errors before they destroy your availability.
It's always DNS. Protect yourself.
Prevent catastrophic outages.
Certificate Monitoring
Expired certificates trigger browser warnings that scare away 90% of visitors instantly. Your site looks dangerous. Trust evaporates. Revenue stops. Missing an expiration date isn't a small mistake, it's a business catastrophe.
Vigilant ensures you're warned in advance. No surprises, no panicked or missed renewals.
Never lose trust to expired certs.
Security Monitoring
Zero-day exploits are actively weaponized within hours of disclosure. Every day you remain unpatched, you're an easy target. Data breaches destroy reputation and trigger massive fines.
Vigilant notifies you the moment critical CVEs affect your stack. Patch before attackers strike.
Alerts you don't see
are completely useless.

Your questions.
🔍 What is monitoring?
Monitoring is assuring that your website is working and being the first to know when it doesn't.
💼 Why is monitoring important for a business?
Broken pages, (performance) issues on your website, broken checkouts or downtime can cost a lot of revenue. If something breaks, you want to know without having to regularly check your site manually.
📈 How does this affect SEO?
Broken links, downtime or a slow site will negatively affect SEO. Your website should always be available for search engines and perform well to rank.
🛑 Is uptime monitoring enough?
Uptime monitoring tells you if your website is reachable but not if your website is functioning. Only by clicking through your website will you know if it's functioning. This can be monitored by Vigilant's Flows feature.
⚙️ Is Vigilant hard to configure?
No, Vigilant is designed with sensible defaults to quickly setup monitoring.
🧠 What makes Vigilant different from other monitoring tools?
Most tools only check if your site is up. Vigilant is designed to monitor every aspect if your website. It simulates real user behavior with Flows, clicking through your site to ensure everything works, from logins to checkouts.
🚀 Will monitoring slow down my site or affect performance?
No. Vigilant runs checks from outside your infrastructure without adding load to your servers or affecting user experience.
🚨 What happens when something breaks?
You'll get instant alerts via your preferred channels (email, Slack, etc.), along with diagnostic information to help you quickly fix the issue.
