ITIL Sidekick
Uptime monitoring and incident tracking that respects the sites it watches.
ITIL Sidekick is a modern uptime, monitoring, and incident-tracking tool for IT operations teams that takes a fundamentally different approach than legacy monitors like Pingdom or UptimeRobot.
It uses **multi-sample consensus probing** so a single flaky check never wakes someone up, and includes **CAPTCHA/WAF detection** that politely pauses monitoring when your target signals it doesn't want bots — auto-resuming the moment that signal clears.
Includes incident lifecycle management with timelines, public status pages with email subscribers, postmortem markdown exports, SSL certificate expiry tracking, webhook alerts for Slack/Teams/PagerDuty, response-time anomaly detection, scoped API tokens, and three pricing tiers from a free plan through to a 500-monitor Business plan.
