A focused Better Stack alternative
If what you need is reliable uptime monitoring and a clear incident process — without adopting a wider platform — Halvyn keeps it to that, at one flat price per plan.
When Halvyn is the better fit
- You want uptime monitoring and incident management without a logging platform attached
- You want database, DNS, domain-expiry, TCP, UDP and ping checks in the same plan
- You want monthly SLA reports emailed to owners automatically
- You prefer a single flat price over usage-based add-ons
When to stay with Better Stack
- You want log management in the same tool as your uptime checks
What you get with Halvyn
One incident per outage
Repeated failures roll into a single incident with a timeline, instead of a flood of duplicate alerts.
Blip recheck
A failed check is re-run within the same cycle before it counts, and an incident opens only after consecutive failures — a single network blip never pages anyone.
Escalation until acknowledged
Email, Slack, Microsoft Teams, Discord, Google Chat, webhooks, SMS, voice calls and on-call rotations — with one-click acknowledge links in every alert.
Incident management
Investigating → identified → monitoring → resolved states, assignees, comments, SLA timers per severity and postmortems.
Public status pages
Uptime bars, live incidents and manual updates on a page you can put on your own domain.
Maintenance windows
Checks keep running during planned work but alerts stay quiet, so your history stays complete.
SLOs and monthly SLA reports
Track objectives per monitor and email an uptime report to owners every month.
Flat pricing
Every check type on every paid plan, one price per plan — no per-host, per-check or per-feature metering.
