Perfect support, answered my dms
in a couple of minutes, and it's the first actual cool looking status page which allows
custom domains (on the free plan 😱) haven't actually tried it, but it looks good so far.

I tested @BetterUptime for @gamubsapp! So much easier to configure and the interface is better than @FreshworksInc!
By far @BetterUptime has given me more pleasant surprises other tool in this space. We had an outage due to a domain name expiring, and it turns out we can even be alerted about that. Great user experience and UI on top of all the features. How is it not more popular?
One year one tool. @linear won my heart last year. This year so far, @BetterStackHQ is the frontrunner, well designed 👏
I just checked this out, and have never been so happy that I saw an ad 👏
