New Relic alternatives

Logs, metrics, tracing, and experience monitoring — an observability suite that also pings URLs.

The default cheap HTTP monitor: many checks, a status page, and a free tier people actually use.

Best for: Teams that want uptime plus log search and on-call in the same vendor, without an observability RFP.

SolarWinds uptime and page-speed monitoring — the name a lot of ecommerce teams still type first.

Best for: Sites that care about uptime plus page load, with transaction checks for login or checkout.

Uptime plus SSL, domain, and DNS checks — a checker that takes the boring failures seriously.

Best for: Teams that want HTTP together with certificate and domain expiry, without an observability suite.

Browser-level synthetics and API checks, including multi-step payments and OpenTelemetry export.

Best for: Teams that need to prove a user journey — not just a URL — from many regions, and maybe stream that into OTel.

The open-source Docker monitor you run yourself. Free, flexible, and yours to keep online.

Uptime, blacklists, and server agents, with white-label status pages for people who resell monitoring.

Best for: Sysadmins and hosters who want uptime plus blacklist monitoring, or a white-label status page for clients.
