📊Monitoring & ObservabilityAbout Better Uptime
Better Uptime combines uptime monitoring, beautiful public status pages, and on-call incident management in one clean product. Monitors check your URLs every minute from multiple global locations. The status page builder creates professional pages that customers can subscribe to for incident updates. The on-call scheduler rotates alerts across team members with escalation policies. Integrations with Slack, PagerDuty, and Opsgenie. Pricing: free for 10 monitors, paid from $24/month. Compare to Uptime Robot (free tier, simpler), PagerDuty (enterprise incident management). Best for: SaaS companies that need both monitoring and a customer-facing status page.
