Server Scout for Hosting Providers and Resellers

Comprehensive Infrastructure Monitoring Made Affordable

Server Scout is designed with hosting providers and resellers in mind, offering enterprise-grade monitoring capabilities at a fraction of the cost of traditional solutions. With pricing starting at just EUR 5/month for up to 5 servers and EUR 1 per additional server, it's significantly more affordable than complex enterprise monitoring tools whilst delivering everything you need to keep your hosting infrastructure running smoothly.

Single Dashboard for Your Entire Fleet

Monitor all your hosting servers from a unified dashboard at app.serverscout.ie, providing a complete overview of your fleet's health at a glance. Whether you're managing shared hosting servers, VPS nodes, or dedicated machines across multiple data centres, Server Scout consolidates everything into one intuitive interface that works seamlessly across desktop and mobile devices.

The dashboard supports both dark and light themes and functions as a Progressive Web App (PWA), so your team can monitor infrastructure from anywhere with the same experience as a native application.

Auto-Detected Hosting Control Panel Plugins

Server Scout automatically detects and configures plugins for popular hosting control panels, requiring no manual setup or configuration. Simply install the lightweight Bash agent, and within minutes you'll have detailed insights into your hosting environment.

cPanel Integration

The cPanel plugin provides comprehensive monitoring including:

• Account Management: Track customer account counts across servers
• Disk Usage: Monitor per-account disk consumption to identify heavy users
• SSL Certificate Monitoring: Get alerts before certificates expire
• Mail Queue Monitoring: Track email delivery performance and queue backlogs

Intelligent Server Organisation

Organise your servers into logical groups based on your business structure. Create groups by:

• Data Centre Location: Separate servers by geographic location or facility
• Client Assignment: Group servers by customer for managed hosting scenarios
• Server Role: Organise by function (web servers, database servers, mail servers)

This organisation makes it easy to assess the health of specific parts of your infrastructure at a glance.

Multi-User Access and Team Collaboration

Server Scout supports multi-user access with admin and user roles, allowing you to:

• Grant team members access to specific server groups
• Assign monitoring responsibilities to appropriate staff
• Maintain security whilst enabling collaboration
• Track who made changes and when

Intelligent Alert Routing

Configure alert routing to ensure the right person receives notifications when issues arise. Route alerts based on:

• Server groups or individual servers
• Alert severity levels
• Time of day or business hours
• Team member responsibilities

This ensures critical issues reach the appropriate technical staff immediately, whilst routine maintenance notifications can be directed accordingly.

Beyond Server Monitoring: Complete Infrastructure Coverage

Server Scout extends beyond server monitoring to include agentless device monitoring via SNMP. Monitor:

• Network Switches: Track port status, bandwidth utilisation, and uptime
• UPS Systems: Monitor power status, battery health, and load levels
• IPMI/DRAC Interfaces: Keep tabs on server hardware health remotely

Simply configure SNMP monitoring through a designated agent server, and Server Scout will poll your network infrastructure automatically.

Enterprise Features at Small Business Prices

With all features included in every plan and no hidden costs, Server Scout delivers enterprise monitoring capabilities without enterprise pricing. The first three months are completely free, allowing you to evaluate the platform thoroughly before committing.

The lightweight Bash agent uses less than 3MB RAM and minimal CPU resources, ensuring monitoring doesn't impact your hosting servers' performance. Data collection operates on five tiers from real-time (5-second) monitoring to daily reports, providing the right balance of detail and efficiency.
