That’s how Mapnitor started — a small project built to solve that problem for myself first. Now I’m opening it up for others who might find it useful.
What Mapnitor does: Real-time IP ping checks (online/offline) Auto-refresh dashboard Latency graphs & history Simple uptime reports
Coming soon: Email, Slack & Teams alerts Grouping and tags Public status pages
It’s still an early version, and I’d really appreciate feedback from the community — especially from sysadmins and hosting providers who live in this world every day.
