Thank you for your feedback, it's true that most of the founders believe that the product will generate income passively without any communication with users, so I think good support with acceptable features is much better than bad support with good features

Thanks for your opinion, I think the right thing to do is to focus on products that have small table stakes, so the MVP won't take a lot of time to build, even adding a few extra features, and therefore, we can enter the market quickly like a good player

The first time, we got rejected quickly after applying with Odown, I'm not sure what went wrong, and I've given up trying to figure it out.

Then, we made some changes and decided to try again. This time, we had better landing page content, improved images, and copywriting, and was accepted and featured a several days later.

I will be reporting the numbers visitors -> users -> paid customers so keep an eye out :)

If you have a chance would love your feedback on Odown https://betalist.com/startups/odown

Thank you for your excellent suggestions, I will try to build and integrate some of your points and hope we can see a little good result

Currently, the main difference is the simplicity that I offer in my app, simple and easy to start monitoring without difficulty, but as you said I don't have enough features to compete with others

As I spent more than 700 hours in application development, I think ... no I decided that I should never give up easily and I will try all possible channels, thank you very much for your explanation and motivation

Can you help me suggest what to do or what to suggest to have pilot users?

Here is my landing page:, what do you think I am doing wrong? and I accept any suggestion that could improve my business

My product is just an uptime monitoring service to check website ; state and notify their users through multiple channels like email, SMS, and Slack. so I think it's not a new idea and the market is already validated Here are some data analytics: - visitors: 1200 - page views: 2300 - Bounce rate: + 65% Regarding the pricing plan, at the moment I only have paid offers with a 14 day free trial but I am considering a new free offer as you said, at least to have real customers

- SEO : I'm working on it but it takes a long time to see some results - PrductHunt : Failed launch with just 24 votes - Cold mail

I feel that I have tried all the possible channels but I believe 3 months is not enough to abandon the product knowing that I have invested more than 700 hours in its development

Sorry maybe I wasn't clear in my question Actually I don't have a totally free offer but rather a paid offer with a 14 day free trial, And regarding the registrations, I was able to get about 5 registrations but no paying user, I receive them after trying the cold mail,

And most of my visitors come out of the pricing page, I think that the pricing is not suited to my offer but the problem that there are products in market with the same features, more expensive and work well

I am so confused about the PagerDuty app whether or not it is useful for future Odown users,

As the founder of Odown which is a simple uptime monitoring service, it's very important to add all kinds of tools that can help our customers, but right now we're starting with the highest priority integrations like Slack

So if you have used an uptime monitoring service like Odown or any other app before, do you think PagerDuty should exist in any basic monitoring app?

Thanks for your comment, as you suggest, first of all I have to talk to our clients to solve their problems and propositions

Thank you for your feedback, we will take into account all what you have offered as features, some of your proposals are already included in our service and others are not, but we will work day and night to make our system easy, simple with reasonable pricing.

Hi HN, Recently, I have launched a new uptime monitoring system to check websites and APIs, and I would be grateful if you could provide me with feedbacks about the following points: - The most important features you want to look for in a simple uptime monitoring system - How do you pick your uptime system? (simplicity , pricing or check quality )

Thanks ;)

Hey HN, Here's the first version of an uptime monitoring tool I've been developing for the past 6 months ( mostly in free time and weekend ). I wanted to build something that was both simple, easy and inexpensive. It doesn't require any configuration and allows you to monitor your domains and APIs in seconds!

I had a lot of fun developing this, but now it's time to move on to marketing, which is something I'm not as comfortable with but brings new challenges.

If you want a coupon code or whatever, come talk to me; also I would love feedback from you guys.
