Uptrends
Best-in-class Digital Experience Monitoring
Uptrends is a digital experience monitoring platform that combines outside-in synthetic monitoring from ISP-based checkpoints with real user monitoring (RUM), helping teams detect customer-impacting failures and understand what end users actually experience. It addresses the limitations of cloud-provider checks by testing from diverse regional locations, including private locations, and by supporting complex user journeys that involve SSO and MFA.
Key capabilities include synthetic website and API monitoring from over 230 ISP-based checkpoints, low-code monitor setup, and automation through the Uptrends Terraform Provider. Real User Monitoring collects performance data directly from site visitors, with dashboards covering load times by country, browser, operating system, and device type, along with breakdowns of DOM duration, render duration, time to first byte, and page ready time. Synthetic data can be streamed into OpenTelemetry-compatible observability platforms. Alerting integrations include Slack, Microsoft Teams, PagerDuty, ServiceNow, Grafana, Zapier, and the Uptrends API, among others.
Uptrends is aimed at teams responsible for web and API reliability, including those managing global services and revenue-critical applications. A 30-day free trial provides access to Enterprise capabilities without a credit card. Paid plans are billed annually with a discount, and the Core edition includes 10 users, multiple checkpoint regions, uptime checks every two minutes, browser checks, and RUM as an add-on.
