What to weigh: Oh Dear vs Uptrack
These facts come from Oh Dear's public pricing and docs pages as of October 2026. Plans change often, so check their site before you decide.
Price per site
Oh Dear Solo is $17/mo for 2 sites, and Solo Plus is $32/mo for 5 sites. Each Oh Dear site covers many check types. Uptrack Pro is $3/mo for 50 monitors, and each monitor runs one check type.
Check interval
Oh Dear checks every minute. Uptrack checks every 30 seconds on every plan.
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
- Pro starts at $3/mo for 50 monitors at 30-second checks.
- Alert confirmation: Uptrack opens an incident only after 2-5 consecutive failed checks, and its EU, US, and India regions must agree. 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.
- 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.
Uptrack might not be for you
We believe honesty builds more trust than claiming to be the best at everything.
- If you need broken link detection, Oh Dear crawls your site and finds dead links. Uptrack doesn't crawl. Its sitemap check only samples up to 50 URLs listed in sitemap.xml.
- If you need mixed content detection (HTTP resources on HTTPS pages) or Lighthouse reports, Oh Dear has these built in.
- If you work in the Laravel ecosystem, Oh Dear's integrations and community are a strong fit.
- If you need application health checks (Oh Dear's health check endpoint monitoring for Laravel/PHP apps).
- If you need unlimited users, Oh Dear includes them on every plan.
