What Uptrends is
Uptrends monitors websites, web applications, APIs, and servers for availability and performance. It runs synthetic checks from more than 230 ISP-based locations and can also use private checkpoints. Monitoring options include uptime, browser, transaction, and API checks; plans provide credits to allocate among monitor types, and credits remain available through the annual term. Supported protocols include HTTP/HTTPS, SMTP, POP3, IMAP, Ping, DNS, FTP, Connect, SQL, and MySQL. It can automate multi-step checks for identity-driven journeys using SSO or MFA. Alerts can reach email, SMS, phone, mobile push, collaboration and incident tools, webhooks, or the API. iOS and Android apps show monitoring data and send push notifications. Core includes 10 users and 180 days of data retention, while Pro includes 25 users and 365 days. There is no free plan, but a 30-day trial is available.
