SitePing vs Sucuri
Sucuri sells website security per site and per year: malware scans, blocklist monitoring, unlimited cleanups and an optional firewall. SitePing watches the sites of a whole agency from inside and outside, with cleanup paid only when it is needed.
What it costs each month
Sucuri publishes prices up to 5 sites (Junior Dev, $999.98 a year). For 10 sites or more the price is on request, so the table has no figure. At the price of one Basic site, 10 sites would cost $2,290 a year.
