Why people switch from Pingdom
Pingdom has no free plan and prices its uptime checks per monitor. UptimePush includes 10 monitors free and 50 on Pro for €9 per month, with status pages, SSL alerts and Telegram notifications included rather than added on.
- Free plan and low entry price
- Status page and SSL alerts included
- Telegram, Slack and Discord without extra integrations
- Hosted in the EU with euro pricing
Where Pingdom is still ahead
Pingdom offers real user monitoring, scripted transaction checks and many global locations. If you need browser-based synthetic journeys or RUM, Pingdom covers use cases UptimePush does not.
Moving over
Export your monitor list, paste the URLs into UptimePush or create them through the API, connect your alert channels and publish a status page. Most teams finish in an afternoon and keep both running for a week to compare alerts.
