UptimeRobot alternative that also watches your orders

Q: How much does UptimeRobot cost?

The Solo plan is 10 US dollars a month (9 billed annually), before tax, with 10 monitors checked every minute and 3 status pages. The Team plan is 41 dollars a month, with 100 monitors (uptimerobot.com/pricing, October 2026).

UptimeRobot is great at telling you whether your site responds. Estiaje also checks your URLs every minute and publishes your status page, and it watches what UptimeRobot can't see: that your orders, payments and messages actually finish, even while the site is up. Here they are side by side.

Your URLs, checked the way UptimeRobot does

What you use UptimeRobot for every day, Estiaje does on its «Salud» (Health) screen:

Every minute, from our server, at the address you choose: your homepage, your API or your /health.
It alerts you when it's really down: you choose after 2, 5, 10 or 15 minutes of failures in a row. A one-minute 502 during a deploy won't wake you up.
And when it's back, with how long it was down.
Your status page, with a 90-day bar and recent incidents. It fills itself with every check.
Your URL never shows on the public page, only the name you give it.

And what UptimeRobot doesn't know about your business:

The paid order nobody shipped. The site returns 200 and the customer keeps waiting. Estiaje alerts you with how much money is at risk.
The payment webhook that never arrived, or the cron job that stopped running, while everything looks «up».
Which deploy started the problem, who shipped it and the link to the commit.

Which one fits you?

Stay with UptimeRobot if…

all you need is to know whether your URLs respond, and you have many of them. Its free plan, with 50 monitors, is hard to beat.

Use Estiaje if…

besides a site that's down, you want to hear about what breaks while it's up: the order, payment or message stuck halfway.

Or both

Keep UptimeRobot on your URLs and use Estiaje for your processes. You don't have to choose.

A site that's down gets noticed fast: your customers tell you. The expensive problems are the quiet ones, like a paid order nobody shipped while the site works perfectly. That's where Estiaje tells you before your customer does.

Get started in two minutes

Checking URLs takes no code: in the dashboard, on «Salud», paste the address, choose after how many minutes to alert you and click «Agregar» (Add). For your status page, mark which ones are public and give them a name.

To watch that your orders finish, it's a few lines with the SDK:

import { estiajeFromEnv } from '@estiaje/sdk';

const estiaje = estiajeFromEnv({ service: 'store' });
estiaje.event('order.paid', { id, amount });
estiaje.outcome('order.shipped', { id });   // if it never comes, you get an alert

Python, PHP, Java, .NET, Go or Ruby? The docs have a recipe for each. Want the status page inside your own site? Here's how.

Frequently asked questions

Can Estiaje replace UptimeRobot?

If you check a handful of URLs, yes: Estiaje checks them every minute, alerts your phone when one has been down for 2, 5, 10 or 15 minutes, and publishes your status page. If all you need is to check many URLs, UptimeRobot's free plan, with 50 monitors every 5 minutes, is hard to beat.

How much does UptimeRobot cost?

The Solo plan is US$10 a month (US$9 billed annually), before tax, with 10 monitors checked every minute and 3 status pages. The Team plan is US$41 a month, with 100 monitors (uptimerobot.com/pricing, October 2026).

What does Estiaje see that UptimeRobot doesn't?

What breaks while the site is up: a paid order nobody shipped, a payment webhook that never arrived, a cron job that stopped running. Estiaje alerts you with how much money is at risk, groups your errors and keeps your logs, for the same price.

Is there a free plan?

Yes. The Free plan includes grouped errors, searchable logs and 3 watched processes, no card required, but no URL checks. URL checks every minute and the status page start at Inicio, about US$11 a month, billed in Mexican pesos ($199 MXN plus Mexican VAT). New accounts get 14 days of Pro.
