I love being able to add a URL and have it pull through uptime, performance, certificate checks etc. The integration into Laravel + health monitoring is great. I don't use the status pages much, but I like knowing it's there for if a client asks. The downtime alerts have become invaluable, alerting me to an issue before a client spots it.

It was really easy to set up, all our services are registered in OhDear and what we did is installed a lot of notification channels. So if there is anything interesting, we are really getting notified. Also, cron jobs are really important for us and OhDear gives us a really flexible way of setting up and monitoring all jobs execution. UI is really good. Public monitoring page is available, although we are not using it but is perfect.

It is very easy to setup and integrate while being flexible enough to handle different cases. Also since it covers everything from websites to APIs, from SSL certificates to response times to first load etc. it is a single solution that covers all of our external monitoring needs.
