Why teams choose Hyperping

More than an uptime checker.

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

Built for teams, not just developers

Oh Dear is focused on website health checks for individual developers. Hyperping is built for teams that need on-call scheduling, escalation policies, and incident management alongside their monitoring.

Browser monitoring with Playwright

Oh Dear doesn't offer synthetic browser monitoring. Hyperping includes Playwright-based browser checks to monitor complex user journeys, checkout flows, and single-page applications.

Advanced status pages

Oh Dear offers basic public status pages. Hyperping includes unlimited status pages with custom domains, private pages protected by SSO, multi-tenant support, and full branding customization.

Pricing

More features, better value

A straightforward view of what each plan gives your team.

Oh Dear pricing

Oh Dear prices purely by site count: €49/month covers 10 sites, €149/month covers 50, and 100 sites reach €249/month. Every feature is included on every plan, and there is no free tier.

For on-call and incident management, you'd still need to add PagerDuty, Opsgenie, or a similar tool on top.

Hyperping bundles everything

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

No separate tools needed for alerting or incident response, and a free plan with 20 monitors to start.

Bottom line

Oh Dear excels at website health checks with unique features like broken link detection, Lighthouse audits, and DNS change alerts, and its all-features-on-every-plan model is refreshingly honest.

If you monitor many sites or need a complete incident response platform with on-call, escalation policies, and browser checks, Hyperping delivers more value at a fraction of the per-site cost.
