Why do web agencies choose SheetsDuty over UptimeRobot?

UptimeRobot charges increasing fees as your monitor list grows and restricts multi-user access. SheetsDuty provides flat $24/mo pricing for up to 40 client monitors with native Google Sheets sharing, formulas, and client reporting.

Can I share uptime data directly with my clients?

Yes! You can share your Google Sheet with client stakeholders with standard View-Only permissions, or embed live incident graphs directly into Google Looker Studio reports for transparent monthly client retainers.

Does SheetsDuty alert our agency before clients notice?

SheetsDuty performs continuous sub-second uptime checks and dispatches instant multi-email alerts within seconds, allowing your team to triage and resolve client outages before the client even realizes their site is down.
