What you give up vs Pingdom

  • AI correlation features require OpenAI API key (not fully self-contained)
  • Relatively young project; some integrations are still alpha quality
  • No built-in on-call scheduling; must integrate with external tools

What you gain

  • • Full data ownership — self-host Keep on your own infrastructure.
  • • No per-seat SaaS bill (Pingdom: check-count pricing).
  • • Open-source code you can audit and extend (MIT).
