What our engineers handle on Checkmk
This is the hands-on work, done by a person: the jobs the automatic tools cannot do for you.
- 1Install the Checkmk site and agents, and update both safely
- 2Use auto-discovery and rules to keep checks consistent
- 3Configure notifications, escalation and downtimes
- 4Set up distributed monitoring for several locations
Problems we fix
Problem
Hosts show services as pending or unknown
What we do
We check agent connectivity and TLS registration, then rediscover the services.
Problem
Too many alerts during maintenance
What we do
We set scheduled downtimes and rules so planned work does not page anyone.
Problem
The site is slow with many hosts
What we do
We tune the core, check disk speed and move to distributed monitoring if needed.
Automatic tools, and our team for the rest
RootManage is automatic server management with every tool in one place. The tools run by themselves on a schedule and report to one dashboard. Everything they cannot do, and every emergency, is handled by our engineers by hand.

Everything else, and every emergency
- Hands-on work. Fixes, tuning, migrations, upgrades and the other jobs listed above on this page.
- Emergency work. A hacked site, an outage or a failed update is handled by a person who investigates and fixes it, not by a script.
- Things we do not automate. Anything the tools do not cover is done by hand, over SSH, WHM or RDP, on a login you can remove at any time.
The tools are optional, run on Linux servers and are installed by you with one command each. Every job our team does is recorded as a task in your dashboard with the details, and you get an email when it is updated.
How it works
- 1
Sign up
Create an account, choose a plan and add the server you want managed.
- 2
Install the tools
Run one command per tool. They then work by themselves and report to your dashboard. For hands-on work you give us a login you can remove at any time.
- 3
Automatic, with people behind it
The tools watch, scan and back up automatically and alert you. Our engineers do the rest by hand and handle every emergency, and you follow each task in your dashboard.
Questions about Checkmk
Checkmk or Zabbix?
Checkmk is quicker to start with its auto-discovery; Zabbix is very flexible for custom data. We run both.
Which edition do I need?
The free Raw edition covers many needs. Paid editions add features such as distributed monitoring and a faster core. We check your requirements.
What does it cost to have Checkmk managed?
Managed plans start at ₹1,999 a month for one server, and Checkmk is managed as part of the server. The pricing page lists what each plan includes. If a server is already infected, the emergency cleanup is a one-time ₹9,000 job.
