Uptimia Professional is $39 a month for 100 monitors checked every 30 seconds, with status pages and real-user monitoring included. Uptime.com charges $60 a month for 100 checks at 1-minute intervals and sells both as add-ons. Both billed yearly.
Uptime.com costs less for up to 50 monitors checked every minute. Above that, Uptimia Professional costs less, up to its 100 monitors, eleven people and 150 texts a month.
For the same setup, Uptime.com costs $60 a month and Uptimia $39.
Start free trial →Uptime.com prices are in dollars; the euro view uses the ECB rate of 29 Sep 2026. Monitors are matched to Uptime.com basic checks. Not counted: its faster checks, status pages and real-user monitoring, which are not on the tier price list.
Every tier on Uptime.com's price list runs 1-minute checks. A 30-second check catches the short outage that starts and clears between two of them.
On Uptime.com, API, transaction, page-speed, heartbeat and third-party checks share one pool: 10 on the 100-check tier. Uptimia's 10 advanced checks are shared only by page speed and browser transactions; API chains, heartbeats and servers count separately.
Uptime.com sells status pages and real-user monitoring as add-ons on top of the tier. Uptimia Professional includes 10 status pages and real-user monitoring.
