Montastic's free plan checks every 5 minutes and its paid plans every minute. Uptrack checks every 30 seconds on every plan.
Price for 50 monitors
Montastic Business is $10/mo for 50 monitors at 1-minute checks. Uptrack Pro is $3/mo for 50 monitors at 30-second checks.
Browser flows on the entry plan
Uptrack Pro includes 5 Playwright browser monitors for $3/mo. Each run follows a flow such as login or checkout and saves a screenshot at each step, so you see which step broke.
What Uptrack does differently
- 30-second checks on every plan, compared with a 1-minute minimum on Montastic.
- Alert confirmation: Uptrack opens an incident only after 2-5 consecutive failed checks, and several check locations must confirm. One DNS timeout or CDN blip does not page you.
- Browser checks: Pro includes 5 Playwright monitors that run flows like login or checkout and save a screenshot at each step.
- Alert channels: Email, Slack, Discord, Telegram, and webhooks.
- Escalation policies on Team and Business route an unacknowledged alert to the next person after a delay you set.
- REST API and an MCP server, so you can manage monitors from scripts or AI assistants such as Claude.
