Twelve changes since 20 October, newest first, with what each one does for you. What comes next is on the roadmap.
Your domain report, every Monday 13 Nov
On DMARC Basic and up, a report e-mail arrives every Monday morning. For each domain it covers the last 7 days: the senders reported, how many passed and failed, forwarding and mailing lists explained, and one next action. A good week says so. You can turn it off in Settings.
BIMI certificate monitoring 13 Nov
If your domain shows its logo in the inbox with BIMI, MonitorBase now watches the mark certificate (VMC or CMC) behind it, on Basic and up. You get an alert 30 days and 7 days before it expires, when it has expired, when the l= logo no longer matches the logo in the certificate, and when your DMARC policy leaves enforcement. What is BIMI explains the rest.
What Free and Basic include 13 Nov
DMARC Free covers 1 domain with weekly checks, about 1,000 report messages a month and 14 days of history. It names your senders in the dashboard, without alert e-mails. DMARC Basic, €16 a month, adds daily checks and e-mail alerts, 3 domains plus unlimited parked domains, 180 days of history and 250,000 messages a month. Approving and rejecting senders, the next policy step and managed DMARC are on Basic and up. With managed DMARC you point _dmarc to us with one CNAME, and change your policy in the app from then on.
Free plans are for personal use 13 Nov
Free monitoring on DMARC, SSL and Uptime is for personal and hobby domains. Business use runs on a paid plan, from €12 a month. The free domain check and the free certificate tools stay free for everyone. Why we changed it.
A result screen for each result 10 Nov
The free domain check now ends with a next step that fits what it found. A domain without a DMARC record gets a different next step from a domain at p=none, or a parked domain.
Three changes in DMARC Monitor 2 Nov
Sender register
Every sender seen in your DMARC reports is listed. On Basic and up you approve or reject each one, and MonitorBase checks DNS against your decision: approved senders should pass, rejected ones should be blocked. A new-sender alert in the app comes with the Approve and Reject buttons.
Reporting card
It shows whether aggregate reports (rua), failure reports (ruf) and TLS reports (TLS-RPT) reach MonitorBase. If one is missing, it writes the exact DNS record to publish, built from the record you have now.
"Needs attention", explained
When a domain needs attention, the domain page now says why. You can mark an alert as handled, and a re-check clears it when the cause is fixed.
Unicode domains
Domains with letters like æ, ø and å, such as sjøbeck.dk, work in the app and in the free checkers.
Uptime Monitor is public 21 Oct
HTTP, keyword, TCP, DNS and heartbeat monitors. Checks run from Paris, and every outage is confirmed from Amsterdam before we alert you. Status pages on monitorstatus.eu stay up when your site is down.
- Uptime Pro, €12 a month: 50 monitors, checks every minute, 3 status pages.
- Uptime Business, €39 a month: 250 monitors, checks every minute, 10 status pages with components of your own, your logo and colour, your own address (we set it up for you) and a status-page API.
SSL Monitor: Free and Business 21 Oct
SSL Free covers 3 hosts with daily checks and e-mail alerts, for personal use. SSL Business covers 150 hosts for €49 a month. SSL Pro, with 20 hosts for €18, sits in between.
One subscription for any mix 20 Oct
One plan per product, on one subscription and one invoice. DMARC Pro and Uptime Pro together, for example, cost €57 a month (€45 + €12, ex. VAT).
