Uptrack might not be for you

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

  • If you need page speed monitoring, StatusCake has it and Uptrack doesn't.
  • If you need server monitoring (CPU, RAM, disk), StatusCake offers it as part of its platform.
  • If you need more seats on an entry plan, StatusCake Superior includes 9 team members. Uptrack Pro includes 3.
  • If you need more than 5 free monitors, StatusCake offers 10 monitors at 5-minute checks. Uptrack's free plan is 5 monitors at 30 seconds from one location.
