Pros

“We've never had any issues with their service, though very infrequently we see noise in the alerts that appear to be networking issues on UptimeRobot's side rather than our services.”

Matt C.

Open-source maintainer

“Quickly set up monitors for my websites, default notification settings, turn on and forget.”

Lukas C.

Web developer

“We have a separate commercial RMM tool to monitor up and downtime for client sites and servers, but honestly, we also happily subscribe to UptimeRobot for down and up alerts.”

Dan M.

IT Director

Pros

“Notifications can be sent to the channels we want, which is really convenient.”

Peter E.

Tech Lead

“It's not only site-is-down monitor, it's also cron, sitemaps, performance, lighthouse reports, status pages, etc.”

Slava A.

Engineering Manager

“Everything works as expected: reliable alerts, flexible configuration and a clean status page”

Anthony M.

FullStack Developer

Cons

“The dashboard can feel a bit basic, and some advanced analytics or customization options are limited unless you’re on a higher plan.”

Sergiu S.

Technical Officer

“The free version is no longer available for small for-profits.”

Simon K.

Head of Digital

“So far, we haven't found anything worth commenting on in the technological aspect.”

Jose d.

Coordinador de Proyectos de TI

Cons

“Sometimes their app would have a hiccup, causing a false positive. But the most annoying thing is that a monitoring tool like this cannot monitor a domain expiration date.”

Rus C.

CTO

“Dashboard is sometimes very slow when searching for a website or performing an action; not always clear that the website is in a 'loading' state.”

Mark d.

CTO

“Being on a grandfathered plan, I can't upgrade to yearly payments to have less invoices to deal with :)”
