"Betterstack - A Game Changer for Monitoring"
What do you like best about Better Stack?

I've been using Betterstack for a while now, and it's truly been a game changer for our monitoring process. The real-time alerting and the clean, intuitive interface make it incredibly easy to keep track of system performance. What I really appreciate is how seamless the integration has been with our existing setup—no headaches, just smooth sailing. The customer support team has also been responsive and helpful whenever I've needed assistance, which is a huge plus. Overall, it's helped streamline our workflow and has saved us a lot of time!

Pricing. Some features are behind a paywall but the free features are still way worth it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Solid platform, incredibly useful"
What do you like best about Better Stack?

I like how intuitive the platform is, as well as the feature set it offers. The live log feature built in is great for us as we use it to feed custom error logging in to from our web application stacks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Better Stack?

It would be nice if there were more integrations for the system in terms of what it can monitor. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"I can sleep better since I use Better Stack."
What do you like best about Better Stack?

What I like best about Better Stack is how easy it is to use. The intuitive backend requires no complicated configuration, making it truly a "fire and forget" solution. It offers great value for startups with pricing that scales as your company grows. The status page is not only functional but also visually appealing. I also appreciate how it has evolved from being just a monitoring tool to now also supporting log management, which adds even more value. I'm using it since the very early beginning and it has become my first choice for monitoring my web applications. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Better Stack?

The one thing I dislike about Better Stack is that the free tier pauses all active monitors if you don't log in to the backend for a certain period (30 days as far as I remember). While it does provide warnings a few days beforehand, it can be inconvenient if you miss those notifications or are away for an extended period. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Betterstack status page 10/10"
What do you like best about Better Stack?

I like how you can modify the UI a lot, and how easy it is to use. Also, I think it's a really good service, especially considering it's free. It offers numerous free options that other services don't, and their UI is remarkably sleek. Additionally, the ability to set up your own CNAME adds to the overall versatility and customization options, making the experience even more organic and tailored to individual needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Better Stack?

To be honest, what I dislike is the requirement to provide a phone number for signup. I feel like email should suffice, and a phone number should only be necessary if you choose to use it. It would be better if I could simply provide a valid email without needing to include a phone number. That's my only complaint. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A Well Designed Uptime Platform"
What do you like best about Better Stack?

The interface is easy to understand with robust features such as creating custom alerts, heartbeats and integrates with many popular tools. Although there are many uptime monitor apps to choose from, Better Stack is the top tier app, whether you need reliable metrics or more in depth alerts and monitoring capabilities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Better Stack?

I would love to see more guided onboarding tutorials for new users. A make.com integration for automation would be great as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Very good monitoring service at great price points. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
