Freshping Alternative: Replace Your Monitoring in Minutes
Freshping has been shut down by Freshworks — if you are still running checks there, you need an alternative now. live24h is the European alternative with everything in one product: monitoring, status pages, reports, and alerting.
Freshping statements refer to the publicly communicated shutdown by Freshworks. live24h feature statements: as of 2026-04.
What Freshping Users Need Now
If you have been running monitoring on Freshping, here is what is on your plate now:
- Recreate or import monitoring checks — move URLs, intervals and keyword rules to a new tool.
- Set up a status page with your own domain so customers and subscribers still have a single source of truth.
- Configure notifications (email, Slack, webhook, optionally SMS), including escalation on missed ACKs.
- Redirect subscribers from the old status page — via DNS CNAME or a one-off mail to your subscriber list.
live24h covers all four in a single product, without separate add-ons.

15-Minute Migration Checklist
- Create an account (1 min) — live24h.eu/register
- Import or manually add your first checks (5 min) — URL, interval (e.g. 1 min), keyword or status-code rule. Up to 15 checks are included in the free tier; if you go beyond, the Pro trial starts automatically.
- Wire up notification channels (3 min) — add email recipients, a Slack webhook, optionally a generic webhook. Confirm the email link, done.
- Create a status page + branding (3 min) — pick the checks to expose, set logo and primary color.
- Custom domain via DNS CNAME (3 min, Pro+) — point the CNAME to
status.live24h.eu, SSL is issued automatically.
If you still have the old Freshping status page live, add a footer note there (or send a short email to your subscribers) pointing to the new live24h status page. That is it.
