"Setup in 5 minutes"
What do you like best about Better Stack?

It was very easy to set it up in a few minutes and get it running. Actually useful free tier and Slack integration. Didn't cause me to waste any time, love it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Better Stack?

It would have been nice to use push notifications using the iOS app, but free tier doesn't allow that, fair enough, can't complain that much. Keep up the great work! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great service with generous free tier."
What do you like best about Better Stack?

Better Stack is one of the best monitoring services I have been using for a few months plus now. It has a generous free tier with multiple monitors, and also allows you to connect your own domain to white label your status page. The status page design UI is much better than other competitors, and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a few small projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Better Stack?

That you do need to keep logging in to the site to maintain your monitors, and the fact you cannot monitor CRON jobs, which is a bit of a shame. The pricing may also not be attractive for those who need a bit more than the free tier offers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Came for a status monitor, received much more"
What do you like best about Better Stack?

The free plan is extremely generous. It is so much better than it's competitors.

The integration is super easy and it even allows you to monitor your server while saving your logs (yes, it's included in the FREE plan!!!)

You can have your own subdomain showing a status monitor of your website and you can even include dashboard analytics Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Better Stack?

An integration with Discord would be awesome to be able to receive issues directly in the app Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great UI, Good features & Easy to use and learn"
What do you like best about Better Stack?

Better Stack has a modern, clean and attractive UI compared to alternatives. It also has custom branded status pages and a lot of other perks on the free plan and with paid plans, it has even more advanced features. The customer support is also really good and helped make my status page load faster. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Better Stack?

The incident managment for Better Stack is a bit confusing and not the best UI to manage. It would be better if a different UI and system approach was taken, like the Atlassin Status Page. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"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!

What do you dislike about Better Stack?

Would love to see more customization options in the dashboard. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
