Hyperping vs. PagerDuty

PagerDuty alternative for teams whose alerts come from uptime

PagerDuty routes alerts, it doesn't detect them. That's a separate monitoring bill. If the pages your team gets are downtime pages, Hyperping does the detecting and the paging in one $74/mo plan, status pages included, no per-user meter.

Free plan, 20 monitors. No credit card, no time limit.

Side-by-side comparison

One flat bill instead of a per-user meter.

Compare what a 5-person response team pays and gets, then the alerting features both platforms genuinely share.

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.

All-in-one monitoring + alerting

PagerDuty is an incident response platform that relies on third-party tools (Datadog, New Relic, Pingdom) to detect issues. With Hyperping, monitoring and alerting are built into the same platform. You detect downtime and alert your team without stitching together multiple tools and paying multiple vendors.

Status pages included

PagerDuty caps status page subscribers at 250 on Professional and 500 on Business, so teams often add an Atlassian Statuspage subscription on top. Hyperping Pro includes 3 status pages (custom domains, private pages with SSO and multi-tenant support), and Business includes 10, at no extra cost.

Browser checks with Playwright

PagerDuty doesn't offer synthetic monitoring. Hyperping lets you write real Playwright scripts to monitor complex user journeys, checkout flows, login sequences, and critical business transactions.

Predictable pricing

PagerDuty's per-user pricing quickly adds up for growing teams. Their Professional plan starts at $21/user/month, and Enterprise pricing requires a sales call. Hyperping uses flat-rate plans with no per-user fees, so your costs stay predictable as your team grows.

Pricing

Hyperping replaces your PagerDuty + monitoring stack at a fraction of the cost

A straightforward view of what each plan gives your team.

01

The hidden cost of PagerDuty

PagerDuty doesn't include monitoring. Most teams pair it with Datadog ($15/host/mo), Pingdom ($95+/mo), or New Relic, adding $100-500+/mo on top of PagerDuty's per-user pricing.

A 5-person team on PagerDuty Professional + Pingdom easily costs $200+/month.

02

Hyperping replaces it all

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, with 5 seats included and $9/seat after that.

No per-user meter on the first five. No separate monitoring subscription. One platform, one bill.

03

When PagerDuty makes sense (and it often does)

These are not the same product, and pretending otherwise would waste your time. PagerDuty is an incident response platform: event intelligence and alert grouping at volume, 750+ native integrations, service directories, stakeholder communication, custom incident types and roles, and workflows that span far beyond infrastructure.

If your alerts come from a dozen different systems, or you need AIOps-grade noise reduction, stay on PagerDuty. Hyperping doesn't do those things and won't pretend to.

Hyperping fits the other case: the alerts that wake your team are downtime alerts, you're paying PagerDuty per user plus a monitoring vendor to produce them, and a status page sits on a third invoice.
