I forgot HetrixTools! Theyā€™re awesome, we are on their $40/mo plan to watch over all our network and no complaints about them.

Anyone here ever use PagerDuty? Iā€™m on the trial right now, and I really like how it integrates with UptimeRobot (and everything else). Considering purchasing it after the trial ends.

Weā€™ve used that at DO for a good while. Itā€™s not my team using it so I donā€™t know how much itā€™s loved, but I canā€™t imagine it isnā€™t appreciated for having been used as long as it has :slight_smile:

Not a web tool but free still. Paessler Web Stress software. Very nice for website testing, various scenarios (ramp, peak, simulate client bandwidth etc). Simulates up to 4000 hits/second. Overall very useful.

Similar to Paessler, ive used https://loader.io on multiple occasions! Veryā€¦ Veryā€¦ Helpful

Thatā€™s super useful! Bookmarked.

https://ip.munzy.io/

Built this as a quick ip info page, and set it as the home page for my proxy browser so I always knew where I was being seen as coming from.

Edit: It doesnā€™t have any analytic bullshit to it, minus the web server logs. In case you are curious.

Iā€™d love if you could share that, so I can translate it to portuguese, we often need to know our clientā€™s IP. Iā€™d register a domain and put the source code there.

Edit: Reports screen resolution wrong, I run fullhd, <.<

35

Itā€™s probably calculating your browser window size. So if your browser isnā€™t full screen then itā€™ll be smaller than your actual resolution.

(Unless thereā€™s some new method Iā€™m unaware of to grab the resolution of the userā€™s device)

36

It can report the wrong screen size if you have changed your scaling in windows to something other than 100%. Right Click desktop > DIsplay Settings > Find Scale and layout, see if it is at something other than 100%

Umm, If you like Iā€™d work with you on creating a Portuguese version. Iā€™m not totally sure on if I want to give that code out, just yet. I really intended it to be used, so Iā€™d love for it to gain some traction. Whisper me, or I can provide a contact email if you are interested. Plus it would give me some experience on how to code a website with multiple languages.

It is in full size, for sureā€¦ :stuck_out_tongue:

Hmhm, I see, thing is, Iā€™d put it on a .pt domain and host it myself. I know, just want the source code. Not fair, and I am aware. :smiley:

Display settings thing: Indeed, that was it!

38

I think you could easily just proxy the home page, and it would work. I havenā€™t tested.

Iā€™d also be willing to buy the .pt domain of your choice, or you buy it and Iā€™ll set it up to work with my server if you are willing.

There is a few backend database connection that I use to help speed up queries, like the proxy check.

39

No need, and I really appreciate your cool offer, but thatā€™s something Iā€™ll most likely need to ask someone to develop for us, weā€™d need to tie it to our company, etc and spread it in Portugal.

Well, I will let you know if I ever make it free! Wish I could have done so.
