Read the story
“Hyperping’s reputation in our company is that it’s more reactive than Datadog. We usually get notifications from Hyperping before Datadog.”
Fabrice GregoireSite Reliability Engineer, Alma

More than an uptime checker. One workflow to detect issues, reach the right people and keep customers informed.

  • One bill instead of stacked modules

    Checkly prices detection, status pages, and AI root-cause analysis as separate modules: the full Team stack reaches $133/month before run overages. Hyperping Pro covers monitoring, browser checks, status pages, on-call, and incident management in one $74/month plan.

  • On-call and incident management

    Checkly relies on external integrations (PagerDuty, incident.io, Rootly) for on-call management. Hyperping includes built-in on-call scheduling, escalation policies, and incident management, so your team can respond to issues without extra tools or subscriptions.

  • Browser checks without run metering

    Checkly bills synthetic monitoring per check run: 12k browser runs are included on Team, then $4 per additional 1k, with retries and each parallel location counting as extra runs. Hyperping includes 10 Playwright checks on Pro with no run counters to watch, and failed checks are re-verified from other regions before alerting at no extra cost, so avoiding false positives never inflates your bill.

One platform replaces the whole Checkly module stack

  1. 01

    Checkly pricing

    Checkly's Team plan is $64/month for detection: 75 uptime monitors and 12k browser check runs, with extra runs billed per 1k.

    Status pages are a separate module at $30/month, AI root-cause analysis another $39/month, and on-call still requires PagerDuty or incident.io on top.

  2. 02

    Hyperping includes it all

    Hyperping Pro at $74/mo includes 250 uptime monitors, 10 Playwright browser checks, cron monitoring, on-call scheduling, escalation policies, incident management, and 3 public or private status pages.

    Everything a team needs to monitor, alert, and communicate, in one platform.

    API checks are HTTP monitors that send your method, headers and body every 30 seconds, with Playwright for chained calls: see API monitoring.

  3. 03

    Bottom line

    Checkly is excellent for teams focused on monitoring-as-code and CI/CD testing pipelines, with a deep CLI and Terraform workflow.

    If you need a complete monitoring and incident response platform with Playwright checks, uptime monitoring, and on-call management, Hyperping is a simpler and more cost-effective choice.

Hyperping vs. Checkly, your questions.

What is the best Checkly alternative?

If you want Playwright checks without per-run billing, plus on-call and status pages, Hyperping: Pro is $74/mo billed annually with 10 browser checks, 250 monitors and 10 seats. If you manage hundreds of checks as code in CI, Checkly's CLI and constructs go further; the Checkly alternatives guide compares five tools.

How does Hyperping compare to Checkly?

Checkly centers on synthetic and API monitoring with developer-first workflows, and sells status pages and AI root-cause analysis as separate modules. Hyperping provides a complete platform with uptime monitoring, status pages, incident management, and on-call scheduling included in one plan.

Does Hyperping support Playwright like Checkly?

Yes. Hyperping's browser checks are powered by Playwright, supporting end-to-end synthetic monitoring alongside HTTP, TCP, DNS, and SSL checks.

Does Checkly have on-call scheduling?

Checkly has alert escalation rules (run or time thresholds and reminders), but no native on-call rotations: schedules go through PagerDuty, incident.io or Rootly on its Team plan. Hyperping includes on-call schedules and escalation policies in the same plan as the checks.

Is Hyperping more affordable than Checkly?

Hyperping offers flat-rate pricing with no run metering. Checkly's Team plan is $64/month billed annually ($80 monthly) for detection plus $30/month ($34 monthly) for status pages, and browser checks are billed per run, with retries and parallel locations consuming extra runs, which can become expensive at scale.
