Monitoring for Non-24/7 Teams: Catching Issues Overnight
Not every business has a team available 24/7. Yet downtime can happen at any hour. How can you stay on top of problems while sleeping or out of office?
1. Set Up Automated Checks Around the Clock
Use monitoring tools that perform frequent checks globally. UptyBots automatically monitors:
- Websites
- APIs
- SSL certificates
- Domain expiration
This ensures that any failure is detected immediately, regardless of your team’s working hours.
2. Use Smart Alert Channels
Notifications should reach you instantly and reliably:
- Email for detailed reports
- Telegram for real-time alerts
- Webhooks for integrations with other tools
3. Avoid Alert Fatigue
Overnight alerts can wake team members unnecessarily. Set thresholds, retries, and multi-location confirmation to ensure alerts are meaningful.
4. Multi-Monitor Strategy
Use separate monitors for different services:
- Frontend website checks
- API endpoint checks
- Port and TCP checks
This helps distinguish real downtime from temporary issues.
