Website monitoring tools, compared side by side
These pages put monitoring tools next to each other on the same rows, so you can see what each actually does rather than what each markets. One compares approaches rather than products, because the choice between uptime and synthetic monitoring decides more than any feature list.

Frequently asked questions
How do you decide what goes in a comparison row?
The Simrix Monitor column is checked against the product itself. Other columns are filled in only from a vendor's own documentation, and left unstated until someone has verified them.
Do I need synthetic monitoring if I already have uptime checks?
They answer different questions. An uptime check confirms the server responded; a synthetic check confirms the journey worked. A store with a broken add-to-cart button passes the first and fails the second.
