"Checkly: Test Smarter, Monitor Better"
What do you like best about the product?
What I like best about Checkly is its "monitoring-as-code" approach, which fits perfectly into modern CI/CD workflows. The ability to write API and browser checks in JavaScript/TypeScript using Playwright, commit them to Git, and run them globally is a game-changer. It feels like an extension of your development process—not a separate tool you have to babysit.
The integration with Playwright is especially powerful—it allows for deep browser-based testing with rich artifacts like screenshots, traces, and console logs. Checkly also makes alerting simple and flexible with Slack, email, and webhook support, so you always know when something breaks.

What do you dislike about the product?
While Checkly is powerful, there are a few areas where it could improve. The pricing tiers can feel a bit rigid—especially for growing teams that fall between the limits of Starter and Team plans. More flexible or usage-based billing would be helpful.
Also, while the Playwright integration is great, the learning curve can be steep for teams new to writing tests in code. Some advanced features could use more in-depth documentation or examples.
Lastly, data residency options are limited. For teams with strict compliance needs (especially in the EU), having more control over where monitoring data is stored would be a big plus.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The result is faster issue detection, better visibility into production performance, and higher confidence in deploymentsall with less manual effort.
I used chekly for api testing.
What do you like best about the product?
I integrated some api with Checkly. One thing I like about Checkly is that they send alerts directly to your mobile through sms if our build fails. And they are giving us the option to hit api from a different location, so we can verify how much time our api will take.
What do you dislike about the product?
If there are any complex api, or chaning scenarios or negative scenarios there we have to write everything in code in dashboard we dont have support.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Api is hitting from different location and schedule from dashboard, that was helpfull.
Easy to setup and use
What do you like best about the product?
it is quite easy to use, userfriendly ui
What do you dislike about the product?
honestly nothing, maybe the requested feature could be delivered faster
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Alerting us if something is wrong with webpage
Checkly is easy, reliable, and gives us peace of mind
What do you like best about the product?
It's so easy to set up, categorise, integrate with e.g. Slack, etc, fast customer support.
What do you dislike about the product?
No real downsides that I've found! Perhaps I wish the status page was available on the Team plan - but the public dashboard suffices for us anyways. We're very happy with it!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Checkly gives us confidence that our APIs are up and working smoothly from across the globe.
Really good but needs some omp
What do you like best about the product?
It starts off friendly, especially with the free tier. But once you scale up more checks, shorter intervals teams the price can grow fast. If you're a solo dev or early-stage project, it feels like you're being charged for every breath your app takes.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some parts of the docs feel half-explained, especially when you're diving into more advanced stuff like alerting logic or integrating with custom setups. I had to piece things together by trial and error sometimes, and that's always annoying.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Yes kinda ya
Easily to setup via UI or via Code repository
What do you like best about the product?
Monitoring proactively my systems and SaaS Product before a user reach us for an incident.
What do you dislike about the product?
complete tool suite, need to be well onboarded and familiar with the domain.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Proactively monitor production systems
Checkly Delivers Confidence in Every Deployment
What do you like best about the product?
Checkly's integration with our CI/CD process, particularly with Vercel, is really seamless. It enables us to automatically run crucial end-to-end checks, making us sure that our production deploys are in working order. The UI is minimalistic, and configuring checks for essential user flows is easy.
What do you dislike about the product?
The primary limitation is the rigid usage quotas, which don't allow us to execute our entire suite of tests on each branch or staging deployment. It would be more useful if there were flexible tiers or extra test runs to enable more thorough pre-production testing.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Checkly allows us to automatically test that our most critical user flows are functioning properly before we deploy to production. Because our test coverage is not very extensive at the unit level, having these browser checks in place provides us with good functional coverage. It saves time, keeps crippling bugs from going live, and provides our team with a sense of security with each deploy.
All-in-one monitoring
What do you like best about the product?
Checkly is our default tool for any monitoring task. Its ease of use, flexibility, and feature breadth make it the perfect tool for all kinds of monitoring (API endpoints, Web apps, CRON jobs execution, etc.).
What do you dislike about the product?
Honestly, there isn't anything we can complain about it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
- Unified tool to monitor various services uptime and latency (public, private, HTTP, cron jobs)
- Public Status page
- Public Status page
Checkly for next.js project auto-linked to github
What do you like best about the product?
Whenever, we push a code update to github. It runs the configured necessary test for the project health. It gets auto-configured & linked to our github account for continous monitoring.
What do you dislike about the product?
While we're using checkly in all of our (4) next.js projects. We haven't got anything to dislike on it with our minimal use cases.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helps in downtime and runtime montioring of the site for us.
Effective monitoring, lots of integrations, pricing could be more flexible
What do you like best about the product?
Checkly makes it easy for our devevelopers to setup monitoring and testing, and it's extremely handy to be able to use Playwright for browser checks and monitoring as code, which fits perfectly into our CI/CD workflow. The dashboard is easy to use and setting up checks for APIs or frontend is quick. The integrations with tools like Terraform are also helpful, as they let us automate monitoring with infrastructure change. Customer support was great everytime I had to interact with them.
What do you dislike about the product?
The pricing model could use a bit more flexibility, as there aren’t enough options between the plans, which is quite limiting as our usage falls between tiers. I’d appreciate smaller steps or customizable, pay as you go plans. Right now, we either pay for more than you need or hit limits quickly.
Finally, I would like to be able to choose data storage areas, being based in the EU.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Checkly helps us monitor critical user flows and API endpoints with just one tool. With the combination of testing and monitoring we often catch issues (eg slow responses, login problems) early, which saves us time and headaches and integrates smoothly into our workflow.
