SolarWinds might not have SMS alerting when the switchover from Pingdom is forced?!

On the migration talk, which was covering the transition from Pingdom to Solarwinds, it was mentioned late in the talk that SMS alerting might not be available.

Is this really true? The reason I signed up for Pingdom in the first place is that I wanted a service which would send me a text message when a server is down.

If SMS alerting can't be guaranteed, then I might as well start looking for another provider.

  • Hi, question for you do where did you see/hear about transition from Pingdom to SolarWinds?  Based on Pingdom being SaaS based, I'm assuming your talking about SolarWinds Observability SaaS, correct?

    As for your question, I would assume you have 2 options that I know of.  (1) PagerDuty (2) SolarWinds acquisition of Squadcast which does the same thing as PagerDuty.
