SSL monitoring for Render services
Render auto-provisions SSL on custom domains and the experience is mostly good — but the few failure modes (DNS misconfigured, domain auto-renewal lapsed, wildcard cert reissue lag) are silent until a visitor hits a browser warning. ManageCert runs an independent TLS check daily.
Why ManageCert for Render services
Independent of Render dashboard
We hit your public domain directly. If Render's auto-issue stops working, we tell you that day — not when Render's status page eventually says so.
Domain expiry too
Render manages SSL but not your registrar. We do daily WHOIS so the domain itself never lapses.
Plain-English alerts
Every alert includes a one-line explanation: what broke, what to do. No SRE jargon.
SSL, domain expiry, DNS — daily, across all your domains.
SSL certificates
Expiry, issuer, SANs, chain validity, hostname match. Alerts at 30/14/7/1 days, plus immediate if invalid.
Domain registration
RDAP + WHOIS lookups daily. Alerts at 60/30/14/7 days. Catches lapsed-domain → squatter before it happens.
DNS records
A/AAAA/MX/CNAME/TXT/NS snapshot + diff. Catches mid-night MX flips before mail breaks for a week.
