"I was paying UptimeRobot $19/mo just to get webhook alerts. Switched to OpsPulse and get the same features for $9 — plus I can add my cofounder without paying extra."
Coming from UptimeRobot? Here's how to switch in 5 minutes:
Yes. The Starter plan includes 5 monitors with unlimited Telegram alerts, forever. No credit card required. Upgrade when you need more monitors or email/webhook alerts.
We charge based on how many monitors you have, not how many people receive alerts. Add your whole team, your on-call rotation, your client — no per-seat fees.
You set a failure threshold (default: 2 consecutive failures). A single timeout won't wake you up at 3am. Real outages still get instant alerts.
Custom domains (CNAME) are available on the Business plan. All plans include customizable public status pages at orionapps.org/status/your-id.
Yes. Full REST API access on all plans. View the docs.
