UptimeRobot.com is another best in class website monitoring solution that is perfect to monitor websites, apps, servers, etc.  It is my second favorite and it is getting better and better!  (It is FREE up to 50 servers to monitor)
It offers multiple notification mechanism (Integrations) to alert realtime the users/owners about downtimes on their web servers.

It already offers Telegram Text messages through a bot and now  you can use CallMeBot API to receive Telegram Phone Calls (with TTS Voice) whene one of your sites is going down/up.

The advantage of UptimeRobot.com vs Freshping.com is that you can configure the notifications channels individually by URL. That means that you can enable each notification channel differently in each URL.

The Telegram Phone calls are possible in UptimeRobot using the new Webhook Alert Contact.

Pre-requisites

You need to authorize CallMeBot to call and text you. Click here to Authenticate.
 

How to configure UptimeRobot.com to use CallMeBot API (Telegram Phone Calls with TTS Voice):

1) Go to your settings by clicking "My Settings" on the top of the Dashboard screen.

2) On the right, click the green button "Add Alert Contact".

3) Select the "Webhook" Alert Contact Type

4) Complete the Form as follow:

Friendly Name: Just put the name of the new notification channel. (Ex: Telegram Voice Call)

URL to Notify: http://api.callmebot.com/uptimerobot.php?user=[username]&

Where [username] is Your Telegram Username/Alias (i.e.  @mynickname) or your mobile phone number (i.e +33124564789). For example: http://api.callmebot.com/uptimerobot.php?user=@mynickname&

Please, note about the symbol "&" at the end of the URL

Post Value: Leave it empty

Enable the notifications for: Select when you want to be called

5) Now, you have to enable the new notification chaneel (Alert Contact) in each of the websites where you want to receive the Telegram phone call

a. Go to the Dashboard

b. Click the "Settings Icon" that is next to the Website from the left part of the Dashboard

c. Click Edit to modify the Setings of the Website

d. On the Right, enable the "Alert Contact to Notify" based on the Friendy Name that you set in the step 4.

Note: You can enable the same "Contact to Notify" in all your websites.

Note: See screenshot below for an example

How to receive Text Telegram Messages instead of Voice Calls?

 
You can receive Text Telegram Messages from UptimeRobot using their Native Telegram integration or you can also use CallMeBot API as follow:
 
Follow the same steps as described above, but add "&media=txt" in the URL to notify.
 
For Example:

http://api.callmebot.com/uptimerobot.php?user=[username]&media=txt

Where [username] is Your Telegram Username/Alias (i.e.  @mynickname) or your mobile phone number (i.e +33124564789). For example: http://api.callmebot.com/uptimerobot.php?user=@mynickname&media=txt&

Please, note about the symbol "&" at the end of the URL

Please note that you can use both type of notifications at the same time if you want to receive a phone call and a text message you just need to create two Alert Contacts (one for the Voice call and another one for the Text message)
