Why agencies switch
- Single product focus — uptime + SSL + domain for client sites
- Renewal calendar specific to agency workflows
- No log-management upsell muddying the pricing
- Per-client status pages aimed at non-technical visitors

Frequently asked questions
- Is Everguardly a good Better Stack alternative?
- Yes. Everguardly is built specifically for web agencies that manage many client sites, with a renewal calendar for SSL and domain expiry, multi-client status pages, and per-client alert routing — areas where Better Stack is more generic. You can migrate in minutes and keep monitoring uptime, SSL, and domains in one place.
- Can I import my monitors from Better Stack?
- You can bulk-import monitors via CSV, and for some providers via API. Add your client sites in a single step, assign them to clients, and Everguardly starts checking uptime, SSL, and domain expiry automatically.
- Does Everguardly cost less than Better Stack?
- Everguardly uses simple plan-based pricing with no per-monitor charges, so monitoring many client sites stays predictable. Every plan includes a 14-day free trial with no credit card required, and annual billing saves 20%.
- What does Everguardly monitor that Better Stack might not?
- Beyond uptime, Everguardly tracks SSL certificate expiry and domain registration expiry with a unified renewal calendar and configurable reminder schedules — so you prevent outages before they happen instead of only being alerted once a site is already down.
