Worked examples

What three example fleets cost

Scheduled checks in a 30-day month with one region. Additional regions and confirmation checks also count. See pricing for plan limits.

100 monitors · every 30 seconds
8,640,000 scheduled checks · within Team budget€19.00
UptimeRobot Team · monthly billing€41.00
with up4 Team / month€19.00

The same configured cadence, with unlimited users at up4.

50 monitors · every 10 seconds
12,960,000 scheduled checkswithin budget
Team includes 20 million checks€19.00
with up4 Team / month€19.00

UptimeRobot Team goes down to 30 seconds, Scale to 15 seconds; faster custom intervals require a quote.

10 clients · 50 websites each · every 60 s
21,600,000 checks · 500 monitors€49.00
UptimeRobot Scale · 500 monitors, monthly billing€179.00
with up4 Agency / month€49.00

€4.90 per client; ten custom domains included. Scale also has shorter intervals, down to 15 seconds.

These fleets fit their plan budgets for scheduled checks. Running all 100 monitors at 10 seconds instead uses 25.92 million checks and exceeds the Team budget.

Cadence, in practice

Check intervals compared

Each dot is a scheduled check across five minutes. Confirmation, timeouts and delivery also determine when an alert arrives.

up4 every 10 s · 30 checks
UptimeRobot Team every 30 s · 10 checks
UptimeRobot Free every 5 min · 1 check
0:002:305:00

30 checking opportunities in five minutes instead of ten or one. Cadence is comparable; it does not guarantee a particular alert time or a lower false-positive rate.

Migration

Four steps from UptimeRobot to up4

01

Paste your URLs

Copy your monitor list out of UptimeRobot, paste it into the batch import. Every line becomes a monitor.

02

Set up alerts

Connect Slack, email, PagerDuty or any other of the 16 channel types, and group them into alert plans per project. SMS and voice run on your own Twilio account.

03

Publish the status page

Pick the monitors and choose a slug. Subscribers move over with a CSV (after your first payment) and receive incident updates.

04

Shorten intervals

Switch your critical monitors from 60 to 10 seconds. The cost preview shows the difference before you commit.

FAQ

Questions about switching

Can I bring my UptimeRobot monitors over?
Yes. Export or copy your monitor list and paste it into the batch import: every line becomes a monitor. Intervals, alert channels and a status page come next.
Is there a free plan like UptimeRobot’s?
No. up4 starts with €9 of starting credit instead, with the core features and no card required. With light use it lasts about three months; heavier use ends it sooner, and the account pauses once the credit is used up. A fleet like UptimeRobot’s free plan (50 monitors at the same 5-minute cadence) costs €3.89 a month after that. The free monitoring page shows the whole calculation.
Can I check every 10 seconds?
Yes, within the volume limits of your plan. Pay as you go meters every execution; the starting credit supports up to 50 monitors, and paid pay as you go has no monitor cap of its own once you have topped up. Team supports up to 100 monitors and 20 million checks a month; Agency up to 500 monitors and 66 million checks. One single-region monitor at 10 seconds uses 259,200 checks in a 30-day month, and every additional region counts again. A change that would push the projected 30-day check load past the plan budget plus packs (a new or resumed monitor, a shorter interval, another region) is refused until you add a check pack, change plan, lengthen an interval or drop a region. Monitors already running keep their cadence.
What about my status page?
Status pages are included on every plan, with subscriber notifications and translations. White-label is included on Team and Agency, and €10 a page a month on pay as you go and during the starting credit. Publish on an up4 address, or point your own domain at it: we verify DNS and issue the certificate. Team includes one custom domain, Agency ten, and more can be added as add-ons; on pay as you go each domain costs €2 a month, counted per day from your credit.
Where do your checks come from?
The application and primary database run in Germany. Checks run from the regions you choose per monitor (Germany, US, Singapore, Australia), from published egress IPs. Results stay in the EU: in Germany, and after seven days in an archive in Paris. See security and data locations and the current DPA status.
What happens if my balance runs out?
An empty balance never deletes your account, monitors, status pages or settings. After a first payment, monitors keep running for 7 days in grace mode (5-minute checks, alerts and status pages live) and then pause; on starting credit alone, the account pauses as soon as the credit is used up. History follows your plan’s retention: 62 days on pay as you go, 90 on Team, 365 on Agency. Top up or restart the plan and checks resume.
What does white-label include?
Status pages can hide up4 branding (included on Team and Agency, €10 per page and month on pay as you go); client reports and their public views carry your agency name and logo. Team includes one custom domain, Agency ten; PAYG domains cost €2/month. Report links can share the same verified domain. A custom email sending domain is not included.
