Uptrack vs Cronitor

  • Flat pricing: Pro $3/mo, Team $20/mo, Business $79/mo. No per-monitor or per-user fees as you add jobs.
  • Alert confirmation: configurable grace periods for heartbeats, and 2-5 consecutive failed checks for uptime monitors.

  • Pro includes 50 monitors at 30-second intervals with Email, Slack, Discord, and Telegram alerts.

Uptrack might not be for you

We believe honesty builds more trust than claiming to be the best at everything.

  • If you need Cronitor's Terraform/Pulumi provider for infrastructure-as-code monitoring configuration.
  • If you're already deeply integrated with Cronitor's CLI tool for auto-discovering cron jobs.
  • If you only need a few monitors, Cronitor has a free plan with 5 monitors, and its per-monitor pricing can cost less at small scale.
