AWS is incredibly reliable, but even the best IaaS can go down. When the US East region sneezes, half the internet catches a cold. If you’re monitoring AWS from AWS, you won’t get alerts when it goes down.
Everything you need to monitor AWS workloads from independent infrastructure.
HTTP/HTTPS monitoring with full request customization. Headers, methods, expected responses, all of it.
Monitor databases, mail servers, or any TCP service. Because not everything runs on port 80.
Get alerts before certificates expire. Avoid the 3am "certificate expired" panic.
Monitor from 12 different regions. Make sure your site is up everywhere, not just from your location.
Automated incident creation, team collaboration, timelines, and postmortems. Built for teams.
Unlimited status pages with custom domains. Keep users informed during stressful times.
Email, Slack, Discord, SMS, Telegram, Pushover, webhooks. Alert the right people, the right way.
No per-seat pricing nonsense. Invite your whole team to collaborate on incident resolution.
Organize monitors into projects. Perfect for agencies or teams managing multiple products.
“Phare provides a nice and clean UI, actually the best that I have seen for a monitoring tool so far. But you got many more features, like a status page with custom domain, own alert rules and alerting from different regions.”

Absolutely! CloudWatch is great for deep AWS-specific metrics and logs. Phare is your independent safety net that alerts you when CloudWatch can’t.
Phare can check your services every 30 seconds from 12 different regions. If AWS goes down, you’ll know within seconds, not hours.
Phare can monitor any publicly accessible endpoint on AWS (websites, APIs, etc.). You can get alerted via email, Slack, Discord, SMS, Telegram, webhooks, and more.
Even better use case! Phare monitors YOUR endpoints, not AWS’s status page. Whether it’s your code, config, or AWS having issues, you’ll get alerted.
AWS is a trusted and reliable IaaS, but Phare believes in supporting smaller business that pay their taxes over big-techs company run by tech-bros with the only goal of increased share price.
Running multi-cloud? Phare is a great way to know if your users can actually reach your service.
