DomainWarn
DomainWarn monitors client domains for changes to websites, DNS, MX, SPF and DMARC, and brings checks and alerts into one dashboard. Its domain check runs 21 checks across website, email, DNS and registration, with area scores and an overall score. It detects record and name-server changes, checks them against a second name server, and displays old and new values. Related issues can be grouped into incidents, with reminders and one all-clear message after recovery.
The service supports 20 notification channel types, including email, Slack, Microsoft Teams, Discord and SMS. DNS integrations include Cloudflare, Hetzner DNS, IONOS, netcup, INWX and Amazon Route 53. It is available on the web, via API, and through WordPress, Shopware and Chrome extensions. The free plan is free with three domains, two members and seven days of history. Freelancer is €19 a month; Agency is €49 a month; Agency Pro is €99 a month. The service is offered to businesses, not consumers.
