UptimeRobot no longer allows free monitoring for commercial projects, which is a major drawback for many users like myself.<p>I’m now searching for an alternative that offers a generous free plan.<p>After using UptimeRobot for about six years and being a big fan of their service, their recent pricing and terms of service changes, along with the plan restructuring, have unfortunately made it impractical for my needs.<p>Here’s a screenshot from their newsletter: https://x.com/AndrewDeJackson/status/1844665065267442142
We switched to Pulsetic monitoring a year ago, and when UptimeRobot first changed their pricing and terms, we made the move. Here’s the comparison table: <a href="https://pulsetic.com/uptimerobot-alternative/" rel="nofollow">https://pulsetic.com/uptimerobot-alternative/</a> . So far, everything has been great.
What kind of feature set do you need out of it? Are you opposed to spinning up an open source project?<p>If you need something more custom like creating tickets in a bug tracker, it would be fairly trivial to trigger a script based off one of the notification options they have out of the box.
For a few years I've been running a couple self-hosted instances of Uptime Kuma from two different locations (a Raspberry Pi at my house and on my VPS) which monitor a few things I care about plus each other, and haven't had any problems.
