## How we checked

We read each vendor’s own pricing and documentation. Latest cell checked: 2026-10-22. Every verified value links to its source and carries its own check date. Uptimely’s row comes from the plan caps and check cadence enforced in its code. We publish this comparison as one of the vendors listed.

Trials and retired products are labeled; unpublished limits and unverified prices stay blank. Grafana’s row labels its Cloud successors explicitly. Separate products and per-user charges are identified so a low starting price does not hide a different bill.

Uptimely's Free plan has 10 monitors, 1 status page and 1-minute checks, with no credit card. Pro comes with a 14\-day free trial.

### Are these monthly prices or annual discounts?

The USD column uses published month-to-month prices, with per-user charges and add-ons stated. Annual discounts and currency conversions are not substituted. Oh Dear’s USD monthly price is explicitly published in its pricing page’s structured offers. StatusCake serves regional currencies, so its unverified USD price is blank.

### Does a dash mean a feature is unavailable?

No. A dash marked not published means we could not verify a current allowance in a first-party source. A trial, a discontinued plan and a confirmed exclusion are described separately. Check the linked vendor source before buying.

### Are monitor counts and check executions the same?

No. A monitor is a configured check; executions count how many times it runs, often per location. Grafana meters executions, and Checkly meters synthetic runs separately from its uptime monitors. Statuspage and PagerDuty serve different jobs from an uptime checker.

### When is Uptimely the right fit?

Choose Uptimely when you want hosted monitoring, status pages, incidents and on-call together on a flat plan. UptimeRobot offers more free monitors; Uptime Kuma suits self-hosting. Browser testing and broad external alert routing may call for another product.
