Feature by feature

OneUptime: feature coverage

Review OneUptime's covered, partly covered and planned features below.

Infrastructure metrics

Partly covered

Measure the health of hosts and services.

Why it matters. Teams spot trouble before an outage grows.

On Borg. OneUptime collects host and service telemetry so you catch trouble early, though metric depth is thinner than Datadog's.

Service monitors

Covered

Check endpoints and alert when they fail.

Why it matters. Teams know when a service stops working.

On Borg. Check endpoints on a schedule and get alerted the moment one stops responding, before customers complain.

Logs and traces

Partly covered

Inspect events and request paths.

Why it matters. Teams can find the cause of a failure.

On Borg. Search logs and traces to trace a failure back to its cause, though Datadog's breadth runs deeper.

Incident workflows

Covered

Assign responders and track what happened.

Why it matters. People know who is fixing a problem.

On Borg. Assign an on-call responder the moment something breaks and track exactly what happened, start to finish.

Status pages

Covered

Publish service health to users.

Why it matters. Users can check if an outage is known.

On Borg. Publish a public or private status page so users can check for a known outage themselves.

Integrations

Partly covered

Connect cloud services and alert destinations.

Why it matters. Teams see more signals in one place.

On Borg. Connect cloud services and alert destinations into one place, though the catalog is smaller than Datadog's.

Some upstream apps gate certain features behind their own licenses; the coverage chips above say where.
