Better Uptime

What Better Uptime is

Better Uptime is a web and mobile service for monitoring uptime and responding to incidents. Its listed checks cover SSL certificate expiry, keywords, and servers, using four monitoring locations. Alerts can be sent by phone call, SMS, email, push notification, critical alert, Slack, Microsoft Teams, or webhook. The free plan provides 10 monitors and heartbeats, one status page, and Slack and email alerts. For teams needing incident response and on-call capabilities, the Responder plan includes uptime monitoring, incident management, on-call, a status page, and 10 monitors. It also includes unlimited phone call and SMS alerts. Responder costs $29 a month when billed annually. The service has web, iOS, and Android platforms. It is made by Better Uptime, founded in 2021. The free plan is labeled for personal projects, while Responder is a paid option for users who need the listed incident and on-call functions. The service's monitor allowance, status pages, monitoring types, and alert channels provide the key details for assessing whether its coverage fits a particular setup.
