GCP Monitoring

Monitor GCP from outside Google Cloud Platform

Google’s infrastructure is impressive, but it’s not infallible. Monitoring from outside GCP means you’ll actually know when things go sideways.

Projects & organization

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.”

Frequently asked questions

You could not find the answer to your question? Ask support.

Can I use Cloud Monitoring and Phare together?

Yes! Use Cloud Monitoring for deep GCP metrics and application traces. Use Phare as your independent watchdog that works even when GCP doesn’t.

How is Phare different from Cloud Monitoring?

Cloud Monitoring is great for internal metrics. Phare monitors from outside GCP, checking if your users can actually reach your services.

Does Phare cost less than Cloud Monitoring?

Different use cases, but Phare’s pricing is straightforward: unlimited checks, unlimited team members, no surprise bills. Check the pricing page for details.

Can Phare monitor GKE clusters?

Phare monitor any publicly accessible HTTP/HTTPS endpoints. If your GKE services are exposed via load balancers or ingress, you’re covered.

What about multi-cloud setups?

Perfect use case! If you’re running workloads across GCP, AWS, or Azure, Phare monitors them all from one independent platform.

Why Phare does not use GCP?

Google cloud 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.

Monitor other cloud providers too

Running multi-cloud? Phare is a great way to know if your users can actually reach your service.
