See your network.
Know the moment it matters.

Synapse Alert is a self-hosted monitoring platform that shows your whole estate as a live, animated map — and a monitoring engine smart enough to page only when something is really wrong.

The map is the monitor

Your network as a living diagram, not a list of tiles

Every router, firewall, server and circuit on one canvas. Links pulse at a speed set by their measured latency, turn grey when one end is down and dashed when both are.

Map studio

Drag-and-drop editor with 51+ device types, shapes, labels, images, 8 visual themes, undo/redo and auto-save — rendered on the graphics card for smooth motion.

Deep checks

Ping, TCP port, DNS, HTTP/HTTPS with keyword and JSON checks, certificate expiry, heartbeat 'dead-man' checks, and Windows and Linux service checks.

Status pages

Branded public status pages with incident posts and uptime badges — so customers know before they call.

How it decides

The smarts behind every page you receive

# a device stops answering
check critical gear every 20 s · workstations every 5 min
confirm 3 consecutive failures (per-device override)
topology upstream router down? → suppress everything behind it
window in maintenance / quiet hours? → record, don't page
route critical → phone + Teams · warning → email
recover 3 good checks in a row before 'all clear'
result one accurate alert naming the device that actually failed
  • Status judged on the last five results: up, degraded, down or unknown
  • Cooldowns, re-send intervals and burst digests — 169 weekend alerts became 2 emails without delaying the first page
  • Recurring weekly windows, even across midnight: suppress during, or alert only during
  • Silent monitoring: recorded in the app, nobody woken up
  • Maintenance schedule published by API so other tools honor the same windows
  • It proves its own health — an external watchdog so it can never fail silently
Every channel your team lives in

Real-time alerting, routed by severity

Microsoft Teams

Critical, warning, info and recovery routed to the right channel.

Email & SMS

Readable on a lock screen or a watch: state first, then device, address and port.

Slack, Discord, Telegram & PagerDuty

Plus webhooks — with retries and backoff so no alert is lost.

AI-ready

An AI integration lets assistants check status, run diagnostics, open maintenance windows and acknowledge alerts.

Synapse Alert also feeds NetCentral: its maintenance windows tell the operations wall what's planned, so planned work shows amber — not red.
