Why teams choose Hyperping

More than an uptime checker.

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

Outages confirmed from 18 regions, not one country

A failed check is re-verified from other regions you selected before anyone gets paged.

On-call scheduling and escalation policies

Route unanswered alerts through timed steps instead of relying on one notification.

Browser checks with Playwright

Test logins, checkouts, and critical journeys with real Playwright scripts.

A status page in the same plan, not a higher tier

Give customers a branded page on your own domain from the first paid plan.

Made for people who already migrated once this year

If you came from Freshping, this is the last monitoring move you should have to make.

Pricing

Which means Hyperping offers better value than StatusCake

A straightforward view of what each plan gives your team.

Free tier

StatusCake offers 10 uptime monitors with 5-minute checks, one page speed test, one SSL test and one domain test, for a single user. No public status page.

Hyperping offers 20 monitors with 5-minute checks, SSL and healthcheck monitoring, alerts to email, Slack and Teams, and a hosted status page, commercial projects included.

Professional monitoring

StatusCake Superior is $20.41/mo billed annually ($24.49/mo monthly) for 100 monitors at 1-minute intervals, 15 page speed tests, 3 server monitors and 9 team members.

Hyperping Essentials is $24/mo billed annually with 50 monitors at 30-second intervals, a status page on your domain, on-call scheduling, escalation policies, 3 Playwright browser checks and 2 seats included, plus $7/mo per additional seat.

Advanced features

StatusCake's Business plan at $66.66/mo billed annually is where you get 30-second checks, a public status page, audit logs and sub-accounts, alongside 300 monitors. On-call scheduling and browser checks are not on any tier.

Hyperping Pro at $74/mo billed annually includes 250 monitors, 3 public or private status pages, 10 browser checks, 3 on-call schedules and 8 seats. Escalation policies are on every paid plan.

Bottom line

StatusCake gives you more raw monitors per dollar and adds page speed reports. If a bigger monitor count is the only thing you need, it is a fair deal.

The moment your team needs someone to be on call, a checkout flow to be tested, or a status page you'd put in front of customers without moving to the top tier, you are bolting on a second and third tool. Hyperping includes monitoring, status pages, incident management, and on-call in one plan, which is both cheaper and simpler than StatusCake plus the tools you'd need around it.
