"Tried several similar services, found better uptime to be the best of the bunch."
What do you like best about Better Stack?

Sleek UI. The free plan comes with enough bells and whistles to cover our basic needs.

What do you dislike about Better Stack?

Would be great to have an embeddable iframe widget to show the status of the API.

What problems is Better Stack solving and how is that benefiting you?

Monitoring our API allows us to not rely on consumers telling us when it's down.

"This is one the best web monitors I've encountered."
What do you like best about Better Stack?

I'm want to know one thing "is my website down for my clients or me?" And it does it right away. I've never received a real alert since I began using the software, but I love that you can even send a test event to see what happens.

What do you dislike about Better Stack?

I don't have any complaints about it. It is simple and does its job.

What problems is Better Stack solving and how is that benefiting you?

I was having a lot of trouble with my previous host, and I couldn't know when the website was down. Now, I don't have to think about it, and it's great.

"Extremely robust tool that offers great information to take control during a stressful time"
What do you like best about Better Stack?

We adore this platform and are planning to upgrade it to a paid plan in the not too distant future. It alerts me when I need to jump into action and take control of an error and it saved our bacon once already with a memory leak causing a timeout. For that it's worth its weight in gold. Nice simple platform with great status pages and escalation policies. Worth it!

What do you dislike about Better Stack?

It'd be super cool if there were some features that could plugin to apps to check the health of them maybe, For example, we run a Laravel fleet of apps, and it'd be super cool to monitor the health of our database models, views etc via a composer plugin to prevent issues before they even happen, But this is a wish more than a game-changer, we do love it!

What problems is Better Stack solving and how is that benefiting you?

By keeping ourselves and our users informed of downtime, it's allowed us at Quuu to have a greater degree of visibility over our servers and fleet of apps than ever before. It's been extremely valuable to us.

I'm using this service for uptime monitoring and end-user statuses.

"Monitoring websites, simplified!"
What do you like best about Better Stack?

I have been using Better Uptime for the last two months, and honestly, the experience has been great. The setup is straightforward and intuitive, and with the help of BetterUptime, I have identified downtime for my website, which a leading web hosting company hosts. I like two of their features that have been helpful that is Status page and Weekly Uptime reports. The status page helps me provide my customers with well-defined proof of my business uptime, and Uptime reports give me a comprehensive update on the weekly performance.

What do you dislike about Better Stack?

Nothing to dislike at the moment, but I would like to see its list of features grow, and I am sure they can provide much more value and compete with the leaders in this market.

What problems is Better Stack solving and how is that benefiting you?

I have been using BetterUptime to monitor my company website uptime, and it was helpful in providing me evidence that my current website hosting platform had issues at their end.

"Better Peace of Mind"
What do you like best about Better Stack?

It was an easy setup. Adding new domains or services was simple and there were many monitoring options available. On top of several monitoring options, there were also several notification methods too.

What do you dislike about Better Stack?

There isn't really much to dislike about Better Uptime. If I had to list my biggest complaint so far, it would just be that I wish the app was an app and not just a PWA/portal to the website.

What problems is Better Stack solving and how is that benefiting you?

Keeping an eye on my servers was the main reason for getting Better Uptime. Now I also use it to monitor services on my home network to get notifications if my internet goes down when I'm not there.

"Amazing service for affordable prices."
What do you like best about Better Stack?

Better Uptime, even on their free plan, provide a clean and easy way to track the availability of your online services. The free plan is great for small-scale projects, while the paid plans provide extremely useful features like calling on-call staff when an outage is detected.

What do you dislike about Better Stack?

Setting up the website for your customers to view the status of your services was a bit confusing at first, but after a few minutes of messing with it, it worked as intended.

What problems is Better Stack solving and how is that benefiting you?

Better Uptime provides us with a great way of tracking the status of our services without setting up a system ourselves. It is extremely easy to set up and maintain.

"One package with all you need"
What do you like best about Better Stack?

Platform is super intuitive and it has all the features that you might want! It also integrates really well with a lot of services. I started with my free tier for my personal website, and now I am pushing for this at my company as it is a definite improvement over the current solution!

What do you dislike about Better Stack?

So far, I haven't found any downside to this platform.

What problems is Better Stack solving and how is that benefiting you?

Easy access to the status of all my websites along with average latency in all major regions! I've even found solutions to have a status page for self hosted servers, which is great just for statistical purposes.

"The best uptime monitor I ever tried"
What do you like best about Better Stack?

The user interface is very friendly and easy to use. I can set up many monitor types in just a few clicks. I like how it shows us information about uptime and incidents from multiple locations around the globe.

What do you dislike about Better Stack?

I have been using the platform for about 15 days and setting it up, creating team accounts, and testing with some websites. At this time, I didn't find anything I disliked.

What problems is Better Stack solving and how is that benefiting you?

We host and maintain WordPress projects for clients, and this tool allows us to give an extra level of service, making sure the website accomplishes the SLA for each one. Also, we plan to use the API to automate reports and dashboards.
