Plenty of monitoring tools include a status page. Pulsetic is built the other way round — the status page is the thing, and the monitoring exists to fill it. Its free plan gives you ten monitors and three status pages on domains you own, with three months of history behind them, which is more than most competitors give away at any price.

Is Pulsetic worth it?
If a public status page is what you actually need, yes, and the free plan alone beats several paid alternatives. A custom domain on the free tier is genuinely unusual — most vendors treat that as the first thing you pay for. The limits are scope rather than quality: this is uptime and status pages, with no certificate expiry alerting, no domain monitoring and no content change detection.
Pulsetic monitors uptime and publishes the results as public status pages. The free plan covers 10 monitors, 3 status pages each on a domain you own, unlimited email alerts and three months of uptime and incident history, with no card and no time limit.
A custom domain being included free is the detail worth noticing. Competitors almost universally reserve branded status pages for a paid tier, so a small project can have a properly branded status page at status.yourdomain.com without paying anything.
Paid tiers add the things that make a status page useful in an incident: customisation, incident updates, scheduled maintenance, subscriber notifications, status badges, password protection and search engine opt-out. Solo is $9 a month, Team $19 for 50 monitors and Organization $49 for 300.
Status pages treated as the point rather than a bonus.
Status pages on a domain you own, at no cost. Almost nobody else does this, and it is the single most persuasive thing about the product.
10 monitors, 3 status pages, unlimited email alerts and three months of history, with no card and no expiry.
Incident updates, scheduled maintenance windows and subscriber notifications from $9 a month.
Password protection and search engine opt-out for pages that should not be public or indexed.
Team at $19 for 50 monitors and Organization at $49 for 300 are reasonable for the monitor counts.
The status pages look current, which matters when they are the thing customers see during an incident.
A free tier most competitors would charge for, then three modest paid tiers.
| Plan | Price/mo | Monitors | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Free | $0 | 10 | 3 status pages on your own domain, 3 months history |
| Solo | $9 | More | Customisation, incident updates, maintenance, subscribers |
| Team | $19 | 50 | |
| Organization | $49 | 300 |
Monitoring vendors change plan limits and prices frequently and without announcement. Every figure here carries a "verify on their site" caveat and you should take it seriously before making a decision on cost.
Pulsetic has a free plan and we do not, and theirs includes custom-domain status pages. For someone who wants a branded status page for a small project and nothing else, they win outright and we would say so.
What they do not cover is everything that expires or changes quietly. No certificate expiry alerting, no domain monitoring, no content change detection, no heartbeats. Our $5 plan covers 25 monitors that can be any of those, with certificate warning windows from 1 to 60 days and domain expiry from 1 to 180 — and status pages are included with us too, up to 50 on the higher plans.
The honest split: the status page is the deliverable — theirs, free. The status page is one output of watching a lot of things that can go wrong — ours.
Every recorded change is compared word by word and kept with a before-and-after image. This is the real output, shown with worked example data.
Price fell from $49 to $39, and an annual discount was added.
The item is available again and the basket button returned.
A new subprocessor was added in another jurisdiction.
The free plan sends to one email address. Every paid plan adds the chat and webhook channels below, with 2 to 10 destinations depending on the plan. However many alerts you receive, the price does not change — nothing here is metered or charged per alert.
There are no voice calls and no SMS. If a phone call at 3am is a hard requirement, say so before you subscribe — we would rather tell you now than refund you later.
Yes. The free plan covers 10 monitors, 3 status pages each on a domain you own, unlimited email alerts and three months of uptime and incident history, with no credit card and no time limit.
Yes, on every plan including the free one. Most competitors treat branded status pages as a paid feature, so this is the most notable thing about the product.
Solo is $9 a month, Team $19 for 50 monitors and Organization $49 for 300. Paid plans add customisation, incident updates, scheduled maintenance, subscriber notifications, status badges, password protection and search engine opt-out.
No. Certificate expiry alerting is not part of the product, so a renewal you forget will not be caught here.
No. Domain registration lapses are outside its scope.
Yes, search engine opt-out and password protection are available on paid plans for pages that should not be public or indexed.
Three months of uptime and incident history on the free plan.
Their free plan with custom-domain status pages beats anything we offer for free. We cover certificates, domains, page content changes and heartbeats from $5 a month, none of which Pulsetic does, and include status pages as well.
