FAQs

A monitoring interval is the frequency at which we check your endpoints. For example, a 30-second interval means we check your service every 30 seconds.

We offer the market's shortest monitoring intervals, starting from 20 seconds, allowing you to detect and respond to issues faster than ever. You can customize these intervals based on your needs and service level.

We monitor your systems from multiple global locations to provide accurate, region-specific insights. Check our coverage at https://docs.bubobot.com/configuration/worker-ip-locations

Yes! We offer a generous free tier that includes your first 100,000 monitor runs completely free. This allows you to thoroughly test our platform and scale your monitoring needs without initial costs.

A monitor run occurs each time our system checks your endpoint or service. The total number of monitor runs is calculated by:

• Frequency of checks (e.g., every 30 seconds)
• Number of enabled workers (each worker counts as a separate run)

For example:

• 1 monitor with 1 worker checking every minute = 1,440 runs/day
• 1 monitor with 4 workers checking every minute = 5,760 runs/day (1,440 × 4 workers)

Monitor runs accumulate across all your active monitors and their respective workers.

Our pricing is based on monitor runs - each time our system checks your endpoint counts as one monitor run. Important to note:

• Monitor runs are multiplied by the number of workers enabled
• For example, 1 monitor with 4 workers checking every minute = 5,760 runs/day (1,440 × 4 workers)
• A single worker checking every 30 seconds = 2,880 runs/day

Bubobot is a SaaS monitoring platform designed to keep your systems up and running. We offer comprehensive monitoring tools to give you full visibility and control over your system's health.

Getting started with Bubobot is simple:

1. Sign up for an account
2. Choose your monitoring targets (HTTP, server, port, or specific monitor types)
3. Configure your monitoring parameters, notification preferences, and escalation policies
4. Start monitoring instantly in real-time

For detailed instructions on setting up specific monitors and configuration options, visit our documentation at https://docs.bubobot.com/ 

Bubobot provides two key notification settings:

• Confirmation Period:
  • Defines how long to wait after detecting a failure before creating an incident
  • Default: Immediately Start (alerts sent as soon as failure is detected)
  • Can be adjusted to prevent false alarms from temporary glitches
• Recovery Period:
  • Determines how long a monitor must be up before automatically resolving an incident
  • Default: Immediately Recovery (incident resolved as soon as service is back up)
  • Can be configured for delayed recovery confirmation if needed

These settings help reduce noise and ensure accurate incident reporting. You can customize both periods based on your monitoring needs.

Setting up integrations is straightforward:

1. Go to the Integrations section in your dashboard
2. Select your desired integration platform
3. Follow the step-by-step authentication process
4. Configure notification preferences and rules
5. Test the integration to ensure it's working properly

Escalation policies help ensure critical alerts are never missed. They allow you to:

• Define multiple levels of responders
• Set time-based escalation rules

For example, if the primary responder doesn't acknowledge an alert within a specified time, it automatically escalates to the next level of support.

Bubobot integrates with numerous notification channels like Slack, Telegram, Discord, or PagerDuty. For critical notifications, we also support SMS alerts and phone calls.
