How does Pingzo confirm a real outage vs a false alarm?

Pingzo uses a sliding-window failure detection algorithm. If 60% or more of the last 5 checks within a 30-minute window fail, we confirm an incident and alert you. This eliminates false positives from momentary network blips — you only get notified about real, sustained outages.

Do I need a WhatsApp Business account?

No! You just need a regular WhatsApp number. Pingzo handles the Business API integration on our end through Meta-approved BSPs. Simply enter your phone number, verify it, and you're ready to receive alerts.

Is the free tier really free?

Yes, forever. You get 1 monitor with 15-minute check intervals, email alerts, and a public status page with Pingzo branding. No credit card required, no time limit. Upgrade only when you need more monitors, faster checks, or WhatsApp/Telegram alerts.

What is a public status page?

A status page is a dedicated website that shows your customers whether your services are running smoothly or experiencing issues. It serves as a single source of truth for your system's health, displaying live uptime stats and historical incident reports.

Why does my business need a status page?

Transparency builds trust. During an outage, a status page reduces the "support storm" by proactively informing users about the issue. This saves your support team hours of repetitive work and keeps your customers calm while you fix the problem.

How can Pingzo help my startup grow?

Reliability is the foundation of growth. By using Pingzo to monitor your APIs and websites, you ensure that you are the first to know about downtime. Faster resolutions lead to higher customer satisfaction, better retention, and a more professional brand image.

How does the 3-strike confirmation work?

Pingzo only alerts you after 3 consecutive failed checks, eliminating false positives from temporary blips. If a check passes on the 2nd attempt, the counter resets. This means you only get notified about real, confirmed outages — not momentary network hiccups.

Do I need a WhatsApp Business account?

No! You just need a regular WhatsApp number to receive alerts. Pingzo is an Official Meta Partner application that uses the WhatsApp Business API to deliver your notifications securely and reliably. We handle the entire API integration so you don't have to.

Which regions does Pingzo monitor from?

We currently monitor from multiple global regions including Mumbai (India), Singapore, North Virginia (USA), and Frankfurt (Europe). This ensures that we provide a balanced view of your service availability for users worldwide.

Can I monitor SSL certificate expiration?

Yes! All paid plans include automated SSL certificate monitoring. We’ll notify you via WhatsApp or Email 30, 7, and 1 day before your certificate expires, ensuring you never face a "Connection not private" error.

Does Pingzo support Webhook integrations for Slack or Discord?

Absolutely. Every monitor can be configured with a custom Webhook URL. You can easily route these to Slack, Discord, Microsoft Teams, or your own internal backend to trigger automated recovery scripts.

Is the free tier really free?

Yes, forever. You get 1 monitor, 15-minute check intervals, email alerts, and a public status page with Pingzo branding. No credit card required, no time limit. Upgrade only when you need more power.

Do you provide GST invoices for Indian companies?

Yes! Indian businesses can provide their GSTIN during the checkout process (Razorpay). We generate GST-compliant tax invoices that you can use for your input tax credit filings.

How fast are the alerts?

WhatsApp alerts are typically delivered within 5–10 seconds. Because we use the Official WhatsApp Business API, our messages are prioritized on the network for near-instant delivery. Email alerts follow as a fallback channel within 30 seconds.

What happens if Pingzo itself goes down?

We use redundant infrastructure across multiple regions. Our own uptime target is 99.9%. In the unlikely event of a Pingzo outage, we have automated recovery procedures and post-incident reports available at status.pingzoapp.com.
