Compare Gatus vs. OnlineOrNot

Gatus is a sophisticated automated status page designed to help you monitor your applications effectively and set up alerts to inform you of any potential issues. Tailored specifically for monitoring REST APIs, it serves as an ideal solution for tracking the performance of your services. You have the ability to watch for specific status codes or search for keywords within the response body. By simply adding a prefix to the URL of an endpoint, you can also monitor a selected target using ICMP protocols. Say goodbye to ineffective status pages that merely display uptime statistics from the last 90 days, which often leave users perplexed about ongoing issues even after checking the status. Gatus focuses on delivering real-time insights, providing information that surpasses what other status pages can offer. Our platform is much more than just a tool to keep customers from overwhelming you with inquiries; it serves as a robust resource for conducting automated user acceptance tests, ensuring you're informed of problems before your users encounter them. With Gatus, you can stay ahead of any issues and maintain the trust of your user base effectively.

Checks can be performed as frequently as every 30 seconds, allowing you to identify problems that could temporarily disrupt your website. Each check can be customized with specific HTTP methods, headers, and bodies according to your needs. OnlineOrNot ensures reliability by conducting each check at least twice before notifying you, with the possibility of additional checks if required. Furthermore, OnlineOrNot monitors your SSL certificates for any impending expirations or potential issues and promptly alerts you if something goes awry. You have the option to perform uptime checks from a single region or multiple locations simultaneously. Since your customers depend on your services, keep them informed with a dynamic status page that updates automatically. You can easily add your customers as subscribers to this status page and send regular updates about any incidents via email to keep everyone in the loop. This proactive approach not only enhances customer trust but also improves overall service reliability.
