Self-hosted alternatives to Pingdom
Pingdom is a hosted website monitoring service from SolarWinds that checks uptime, page speed and multi-step transactions from test servers around the world. Two listed apps do its main job and run in your own Cloudflare account.
Each answer comes from the app’s README and source code, compared with the features Pingdom describes on its own site.

- What a Pingdom user would miss
- It has no multi-location checks, no page speed or real user monitoring, no browser based transactions and no SMS or email alerts.

- No Checks from multiple global locations. Checks run from the Worker with no location choice.
- Partly Alerts by SMS, email, push and webhook, rechecked before alerting. Telegram and Web Push only; a failed check is retried twice, 3 seconds apart, before it counts as down.

- Partly Public status pages. Read-only public page with each monitor's status and 90-day uptime.
