Any idea if any of these tools can do something like... our server ping them every minute and if this service did not get any ping from us, they will send us an alert? Thanks! Hi.

Of course ... I have to plug our own service here too. So here goes. We've just launched Sentinel Monitoring (well, a couple of months ago now) http://www.sentinelmonitoring.com and it does a whole bunch of really cool stuff from just the simple checks like PING, HTTP, HTTPS, POP3 etc right through to actual serverside checks like checking to see how much diskspace you have remaining, or how much memory your server is using, if the MySQL database is actually running and more. These work on both Windows and Linux based servers too. We've wrapped it up in an incredibly simple and sexy interface, we have a rang of alert methods from that include Twitter Direct Messages and iPhone push notifications via Prowl and to cap it off we have a free month trial for anyone that wants to check it out. Thanks for letting me add this comment in and if any of your readers would like to check us out that would be superb and please feel free to get in touch if you have any questions at all. I promise I'm not a spammy person, but Sentinel is really cool and is a really good option for anyone looking for this sort of service. All the best everyone. Mark Shingleton Sentinel Monitoring.
