Our take
Pick OneUptime if sRE / indie teams who will self-host at $0, or stay on Cloud Free at $0 (1 status page, 100 subscribers, unlimited manual monitors) and add $1 active monitors until they need Growth at $22 for unlimited pages, on-call, and API access. Pick SigNoz if platform teams who will stay on Community Edition $0 (self-host, no card) while they ship a first OTel pipeline, then buy Cloud Teams at $49/month when
Best for
OneUptime Monitors you start at $0
SigNoz APM you start at $0 OSS or $49 Cloud
Free plan
OneUptime $0 · rEADME: “self-host for free.” Helm chart and Docker/Podman install. Enterprise / air-gapped is a sales path — do not invent that dollar. Microsoft Marketplace $0.10/user/hour appeared on the self-hosted marketing page as a cloud-bill SKU, not the GitHub installer
SigNoz $0 · self-host. You run the cluster, storage, upgrades, and backups. Community Slack. No Teams chat / email support
