Why Use Monitoring Plugins?

Traditional server monitoring typically requires SSH access to install monitoring agents or scripts directly on the server. However, many website owners using shared hosting or managed WordPress hosting don't have SSH access to their servers. This is where our CMS plugins come in.

Benefits of Using Monitoring Plugins

  • No SSH Access Required: Install the plugin directly from your CMS admin panel without any command-line knowledge. Perfect for shared hosting environments where SSH access is restricted or unavailable.
  • Easy Installation: Simply upload the plugin, enter your API keys, and you're ready to go. No need to configure cron jobs manually or edit server configuration files.
  • Automatic Updates: Plugins can be updated directly from your CMS dashboard, ensuring you always have the latest monitoring features and security patches.
  • Comprehensive Server Metrics: Our plugins collect essential server metrics including CPU usage, memory and swap status, running processes, system load, disk space, Apache, PHP and MySQL status. They also check configuration files and internet connectivity.
  • Cloud-Based Triggering: Monitorio.eu can automatically trigger data collection from our cloud, eliminating the need to configure server-side cron jobs.

With our monitoring plugins, you can keep track of your server's health even on shared hosting where you don't have direct server access. Simply install the plugin and let Monitorio.eu handle the rest.

When to Use Plugins vs. Traditional Monitoring

  • Use Plugins When: You're on shared hosting, don't have SSH access, want quick and easy setup, or need CMS-specific monitoring features.
  • Use Traditional Scripts When: You need full server metrics, have SSH access, want to monitor non-CMS servers, or require more advanced customization.
