A planned outage can still cost you a day's trade.

The work was scheduled and the notice was sent. It just never reached the person opening up on the day.

Take a café on a Saturday. The network posted notice of maintenance on your street, but it went to the landlord, a letterbox or an inbox nobody reads. At 7am the lights stay off.

By lunch the milk, cakes and prepped food in the fridges are a write-off. The POS and card terminal are dark, so the customers who do walk in can't pay by card.

For a clinic the loss looks different. Computers are off, the booking system can't be reached, and a full day of appointments has to be cancelled and rebooked by phone.

The outage was planned. The surprise didn't have to be.

  3. Uptime Pro

    Website down alerts that go further than the free plan's uptime checks, so you hear about an outage before customers do.

    Ongoing monitoring of your website and the software it runs, with alerts when something changes or falls out of date.

  5. Domain & SSL Guard

    Expiry monitoring for SSL certificates and domain names, including .com.au. Alerts give you time to renew before a lapse takes the website or email offline.

Add your address before the next planned outage.
