- You’ve outgrown ping-only monitoring and want more than up/down checks

Where Domnr is different
One panel for the whole domain lifecycle
Domnr unifies your domain portfolio, WHOIS/expiry, DNS change tracking, SSL, and uptime in a single dashboard — not just one slice of it.
Renewal & expiry tracking
Domnr tracks WHOIS expiry, registrar status, and auto-renew across every registrar, so a domain never lapses by surprise.
DNS & WHOIS change detection
Domnr snapshots DNS and WHOIS and alerts you when records, nameservers, or registrar status change.
Switching is painless
There’s nothing to migrate. Domnr reads public WHOIS and DNS, so your domains stay registered exactly where they are — you just add them and Domnr starts watching. No transfer, no DNS cutover, no downtime.
