Hyperping's reputation in our company is that it's more reactive than Datadog. We usually get notifications from Hyperping before Datadog.

Why teams choose Hyperping

More than an uptime checker.

One focused workflow for detecting issues, reaching the right people, and keeping 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.

Pricing

One platform replaces the whole Checkly module stack

A straightforward view of what each plan gives your team.

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.

Hyperping includes it all

Hyperping Pro at $74/mo includes 100 uptime monitors, 10 Playwright browser checks, cron monitoring, on-call scheduling, escalation policies, incident management, and 3 status pages.

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

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.
