Server monitoring for hosting providers
Bulk-provision the open-source agent across customer servers. Add branded status pages, SNMP network monitoring, uptime checks and API-first automation without stitching together three tools.
Built for VPS, bare-metal, shared hosting and managed hosting fleets
No credit card · Live in 2 minutes · Volume plans available for larger fleets
“Fivenines helped us catch customer VPS that had been compromised and were running mining workloads: the disk I/O and CPU signals were there immediately. And because the agent only sends data outbound, we could deploy it across our infrastructure without touching firewall, NAT, or port-forwarding rules.”
Fatih Gülsuyu CTO at Hosting.com.tr / Fastpanda

Built for hosting providers who...
If these constraints describe your fleet, Fivenines is built for the way your team operates.
-
Manage hundreds or thousands of customer servers
Bare metal, VPS, containers and shared hosting nodes. Track CPU, memory, disk, network and availability from one dashboard.
-
Need bulk agent provisioning at scale
Roll out the open-source agent with Ansible, Terraform, cloud-init, a shell script or your control panel's post-install hook.
-
Want public status pages your customers can rely on
White-label status pages on your domain with uptime, incident history, maintenance windows and embeddable badges.
-
Run customer-facing infrastructure on Linux or Windows
Use the agent on mainstream Linux distributions and Windows Server behind cPanel, Plesk, HestiaCP, Virtualizor, SolusVM, Proxmox or your own panel.
-
Serve LAMP and LEMP stacks all day
Apache, Nginx, MySQL/MariaDB and PHP-FPM are monitored as themselves, not inferred from CPU. PHP-FPM is watched per pool, so an exhausted worker pool or a growing listen queue is an alert with the pool name on it, which is the usual reason a customer site is "down" while the server looks perfectly healthy.
-
Put proxies and load balancers in front of it
HAProxy backends and the servers behind them each report their own state, so you pick what pages you: the whole pool going down, or any single member dropping out while the rest still serve. Either way, servers you have put into MAINT or DRAIN are read as planned work rather than an outage.
-
Need predictable costs as the fleet grows
Start with published self-serve plans, then move to a volume plan when your fleet needs custom limits, retention or support.
-
Want API access for provisioning and reporting
Use the public REST API and Terraform provider to manage monitoring in your organization. The partner program adds customer provisioning and usage data for your billing integration.

Fivenines vs HetrixTools, Pingdom and Netdata Cloud
Hosting providers usually evaluate uptime tools, server agents and network monitoring at the same time. Fivenines brings server, SNMP, uptime and cron monitoring together for a hosting fleet.
| Capability | Fivenines | HetrixTools | Pingdom | Netdata Cloud |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Primary focus | Server, network, uptime and cron monitoring | Uptime, blacklist and server monitoring | Website uptime and performance monitoring | Infrastructure observability |
| Server monitoring agent | Open-source agent | Agent for Linux, Windows and macOS | Separate product (SolarWinds Observability SaaS) | Open-source agent |
| Terraform provider | Vendor-published | Community-maintained | Community-maintained | Vendor-published, for Netdata Cloud resources |
Vendor-published providers come from the vendor itself; community-maintained ones from third parties. Compare the resources each provider supports for your provisioning workflow.

How hosting providers roll out monitoring across a fleet
The workflow is built for automation first: install once, repeat through your provisioning system, then report through the API.
Day 0
Hook the agent into provisioning
Add the installer to your post-install script, Ansible playbook, cloud-init template or Terraform workflow.
wget -qO- https://releases.fivenines.io/latest/fivenines_setup.sh | sudo sh -s ENROLLMENT_TOKEN
✓ Agent installed on new-vps-042
Day 0
Backfill the existing fleet
Run the same install path across existing servers. Metrics start flowing at 60-second intervals by default once each host registers.
Week 1
Publish customer-facing status
Create branded status pages for public services, customer portals or premium hosting plans.
status.customer-domain.com
All systems operational
Month 1
Automate reporting and usage
Use the public API for uptime and incident data in your organization. Partners can also read customer host counts and fleet monitor usage through the partner API; billing and report formatting stay in your tooling.
Connect your reporting tools
Organization: uptime and incident data
Partner fleet: monitor-usage history
Your tools: reports and invoicing
Monitor your fleet or offer monitoring under your brand
Use the self-serve plans below to monitor the infrastructure your team operates. Organize resources and alerts around your clients, and publish branded status pages from Pro.
Separate customer accounts and a branded portal
The partner program provides customer organizations, a portal under your brand, and provisioning through WHMCS or the partner API. Partner onboarding and wholesale pricing per monitor are separate from the self-serve plans.

Real Trustpilot reviews from people using Fivenines for infrastructure monitoring.
Fivenines has been completely reliable...
Fivenines has been completely reliable and the service continues adding features at a fast clip. My subscription just keeps gaining value, which is a great thing!

Been with the service from ground...
Been with the service from ground floor; the dev is really nice and insanely effective - more than once I've been reporting bugs and assisting with testing while things were being fixed LIVE! It's obvious that he has aspirations and he's been delivering over expectations constantly. The actual product works perfectly along the other monitoring solutions I'm using (currently Hetrixtools and Komari) and for those who are more wary of unknown code running on their prods the code is available via Git. Nothing but recommendations from me!
