Lynx Monitor: we find out your store is in trouble before you do, and we fix it
Free uptime checkers exist. What doesn't exist is someone who receives the alert, understands what it means, acts on it and puts it in writing for you every month. That is Lynx Monitor, and it comes with our maintenance plans.

How a store finds out something is wrong today
Almost always late, and almost always from someone who should never be the first to know.
"On football Sundays my store won't load"
During matches, some Spanish ISPs block Cloudflare IP ranges and your store stops loading even though it has nothing to do with it. Your host will tell you everything is fine.
The padlock nobody saw expire
The homepage loaded, so it was "fine". The real server's certificate had been expired for a day behind Cloudflare. Ordinary uptime checkers can't see it.
End-of-life versions and nobody told you plainly
PHP or PrestaShop without security updates for months. And sometimes "updating" isn't a task: it's migrating the platform. You need to know that beforehand.
"I pay for maintenance and don't know what you do"
Background work is invisible. Without a report, maintenance looks like a cost, not a protection.
How we do it
Four design decisions you can demand from any monitoring provider.
The alert reaches us
We don't email you at 3 a.m. so you can decide what to do. The Lynx Devs team receives it, interprets it and acts. You hear about what has already been solved.
What isn't stored can't leak
The agent never extracts log text or your customers' data: counts, versions and the e-mails of admin accounts (to alert you if a new one appears). What it sends is deleted within two months at most; the summarised history is kept for 13 months. A problem in one store gives no access to any other.
Nothing updates itself in your store
The monitor alerts; a person decides. No automatic update is going to break your checkout on a Friday afternoon.
The watchman is watched too
If the system itself stops reporting, an alarm goes off. A watchman who falls asleep unnoticed is worse than none.
Ask any monitoring provider this:
- Who receives the alert and who fixes it? Or do you just forward it to me?
- Do you see the real server's certificate behind Cloudflare, or only that "the homepage loads"?
- Do you tell me whether my PHP or PrestaShop is still supported, and whether bringing it up to date is a task or a project?
What Lynx Monitor watches
Everything listed here is running today in the stores we maintain. What is still in development is not advertised.
Availability from two vantage points
Two independent observers; an outage is only reported when both confirm it. Far fewer false alarms and no single point of view.
Team alerts within minutes
Outage, recovery, upcoming expiry or a new admin account in your store: the Lynx Devs team gets it right away on its on-call channel.
Inventory of your platform
PrestaShop version, PHP version and installed modules. You finally know what you have and whether it is current.
End-of-life warnings
Unsupported PHP or platform, telling "it updates" apart from "it needs a migration". Before it becomes a hole, with an honest estimate of the cost.
Traces of an attack and new accounts
We look on your server for the traces an attack or an oversight usually leaves: executable code where there should only be images, forgotten database dumps, backup files, installers never deleted. And we alert you right away if a new admin account appears.
Domain and certificates, also behind Cloudflare
Domain and certificate expiry, including the origin server certificate that Cloudflare hides and ordinary monitors never see.
Forgotten maintenance mode and error trends
The store was left on "back soon" after an update, or server errors start climbing: we see it before it turns into an outage.
A written monthly report
Availability, resolved incidents, work done on your store and background work. What the agent sends from your store is signed and traceable; a person reviews the report before it is sent.
What it looks like from the inside
Real screenshots of our panel, with the stores renamed. You don't need to look at it: we do.
Store names and domains replaced with fictional ones; versions, dates and technical details deliberately rounded or hidden. The panel is internal and not handed to clients; what you receive is the monthly report.
How it works
From setup to the first report, without installing anything or looking at any dashboard.
01
Initial audit
We review versions, end-of-life status, certificates, domain and Cloudflare configuration. The audit report is a deliverable in its own right.
- Versions
- Certificates
- Domain
- Cloudflare
02
Installation and setup
We install the agent on your server with the access you already have, and configure the two vantage points and the alerts. No plugins in your store.
- SSH or secure FTP
- PrestaShop
- No plugins
03
Monitoring and action
The system watches; we receive the alerts, interpret them and act according to your plan. Nothing changes in your store without a person behind it.
- Team alerts
- Human decision
- Action
04
Monthly report
Early each month you receive the previous month's report by email: what happened, what we did and what is left to decide. We review it before sending; nothing goes out automatically.

What it has already found in real stores
No names: a store's weak spots belong to its owner. No invented figures: the service is weeks old, not years.
-
The invisible padlock
On its first measurement of origin certificates, Lynx Monitor found a store's origin server certificate expired since the day before. Ordinary uptime checkers couldn't see it: they look at the Cloudflare layer, which kept showing its own padlock. It was renewed the same day. "The homepage loads" is not "it's fine".
-
A whole portfolio on unsupported PHP
The first assessment found every monitored store on a PHP version unsupported since the end of 2025, and on a PrestaShop version that doesn't accept a newer one. It's not enough to say something is old: you have to say whether the way out is a task or a project, and what each path costs.
-
We take our own medicine
A review found outdated components in the monitoring system itself. We updated the same day what had a patch and scheduled the migration of the component that doesn't. A watchman that doesn't check itself can't be trusted.
-
Match days
Several stores behind Cloudflare stopped loading in Spain during LaLiga blocks: collateral damage from blocks aimed at others. With each client's written authorisation, the system pauses Cloudflare for the duration of the block and re-enables it afterwards. During that pause the store loses Cloudflare's protection: a decision with a cost that the client makes, informed.
