    The single binary release is only amd64, do you intend to support other platforms with releases as well?

    haha yeah I didn't put efforts on supporting other architecture but if there is interest, I can definitely work on it. Which architecture are we talking about ? ARM ?

    Yeah, for the oracle arm server :D
    Need to compare it to my kimsufi server

    Does this service monitor for when outdated or vulnerable packages are installed?

    Not yet but that's definitely something that I want to cover.
    I want to do it properly though, the best integration I'm thinking about is vuls.io for now, if you think about other tool to integrate security scan let me know 😉

    Not related but I'm happy to share that fivenines has been "rewarded" 2nd product of the day on uneed 🥳🥳

    Can you extend the promotion for Startup Plan ?

  • spuyetspuyet Member, Patron Provider

    @Outdoor looks like this is an ARM based machine, that's why.

    I will make it work soon ;)

    Send me your fivenines account email by PM.

  • spuyetspuyet Member, Patron Provider

    @Nacorid @Outdoor I just released the ARM binary, you can setup or update the agent with regular scripts and it should work ;)

    @MeltedMembrane I'm starting to work on this security feature. I'm thinking about monitoring packets and kernel versions then send a weekly report with a recap, WDYT ? Any other idea ?

    Note related guys, but if you've 5 minutes to kill, could you vote for fivenines on devhunt: https://devhunt.org/tool/fiveninesio, would be greatly appreciated.

    Keep it simple but good. Overcrowding your app will introduce bugs. And monitoring app with bugs will loose credibility. Better add windows monitoring, attract the other half of clientele.

    Thanks for the advice :)
    But I still need to improve the product to make it better, I'm focusing on keeping it nice, fast and simple to use even with more features.

    Windows support could happen at some point but later is better 🤣

    👋
    I'm the founder of fivenines.io, a Linux server monitoring tool. 😊

    To celebrate Black Friday, I've created a special offer (valid until December 2nd): all plans are free for the next few months!

    • Startup Plan (5 monitored servers): Free for 12 months (normally $5/month)
    • Business Plan (10 monitored servers): Free for 6 months (normally $20/month)
    • Enterprise Plan (25 monitored servers): Free for 3 months (normally $50/month)

    Sign up before December 2nd to redeem this offer.

    Enjoy! If you have any questions, feedbacks or ideas, feel free to reach out to me here: [email protected]

    My 2 cents/thoughts since you were looking for feedback/ideas.

    Any plans to provide a bigger free tier or a reduced capability free tier? I likely may not be the target market and more lumped into scale, but I recently started using hetrix which also adds some resource management. I havent exceeded their free tier but i do have a number of monitors active.

    Once i hit their free limit, its going to be harder for me to send money out to pay for a new unknown service and also do migrations.

    Also wondering, do you have benchmarks of your monitoring vs other competitors? Resource monitoring should be minimal but curious how it compares to some others as its "easy" to make something that is not efficient

    Looks very nice though from the landing. Pretty UI

    Thanked by 1spuyet
  • spuyetspuyet Member, Patron Provider

    @Beniskickbutt Thanks for the feedback—appreciate it!

    About the free tier: FiveNines collects server data every 5 seconds, giving super detailed resource usage info (I don’t know any other service offering that). I could do a “more hosts but less frequent” free tier like Hetrix, but my goal isn’t to copy what’s already out there. I want to build something simple, intuitive, and game-changing for monitoring.

    On benchmarks: I’ve optimized the agent to be lightweight, but it’s a good idea to share some comparisons—I'll work on that.

    What’s coming soon? Customizable dashboards (v0 is live), CVE scans with mitigation proposals, anomaly detection, misconfiguration analysis, and more cool stuff you won’t find elsewhere.

    I’d say create a free account, connect one server, and see if it clicks with you. Plus, you’ll get notified when new features drop.

    Thanks again for checking it out—and for the kind words about the UI!

  • Any chance that you'll ever add a prometheus endpoint?

  • spuyetspuyet Member, Patron Provider

    @BurritoWrapped You're asking for fivenines to collect data from a prometheus compatible endpoint or you want prometheus to collect data from fivenines ?

  • nice tool , I have been looking for something like this to replace nixstatsagent for eons , hope you will do BF sales this year :)

    Thanks man, I’ve released many improvements recently on dashboards, you can track many hosts on the same visualization and data precision/granularity is way better than before.

    Also, crypto payment is now accepted.

    I’m working on script/cron tasks monitoring rn (a bit like Nagios), a bunch of users asked for it 😊

  • VoidVoid Member

    @spuyet is it possible to add the telegram bot to a channel and get the notifications there rather than directly from bot’s DM? Couldn’t find such s setting anywhere.

    Definitely, will handle that in the following days.

    By the way I’m sharing here the latest updates:

    • Docker containers monitoring
    • Cron jobs monitoring
    • Instance uptime followup

    Tons of new stuff are coming and pricing is going to be updated also 😛

    Thanked by 2wadhah Void
  • wadhahwadhah Member, Host Rep

    I really hope you up the limits on the free tier, maybe more hosts but limited to 60 second+ interval or something.

    Most of hetrix users are using the free tier, and then when they hit the limit they are so used to hetrix they just pay (a lot of freemium companies rely on this)

  • spuyetspuyet Member, Patron Provider

    Yeah, that’s probably what’s going to happen. I just want to add more core features before updating the pricing plans.

    You can connect fivenines to any channel you want now:

    Also uptime followup is now available for instance metrics and cron jobs:

    I did exactly as shown and added the bot as admin for the channel, but nothing happens. Under the account, it doesn’t show any Telegram channel connected. Same for groups too.

  • spuyetspuyet Member, Patron Provider

    @Void hmm strange, I just fully re-tested in production and I'm able to connect any kind of telegram channel. Ping me in the web chat if you need help with that, we will debug it together.

    Not related but instances ports monitoring has just been released 🎉

  • I signed up the other night to add a few boxes to the service and I'm impressed with the data collection - I think you've hit upon something that not many others are doing and if they are, they aren't doing well.

    I feel like your pricing is higher than everyone else, but that's anecdotal at best. If I move forward with my existing 30'ish servers, my pricing jumps pretty significantly, but I probably need to stop whining or wait for you to drop an insane coupon deal. :)

    Anyway - great product!
