More check types, multi-region consensus, and incident management built in. FourSight is a Pulsetic alternative for teams that need more than HTTP checks and a pretty status page: 8 check types including SSL, DNS, domain expiry, and heartbeat/cron, 4-region quorum consensus, and structured incident management — from a free 10-monitor plan, with paid tiers at $16–160/mo flat. [Switch from Pulsetic in an afternoon](/auth?signup=true) [View pricing](/pricing) Why switch? ## FourSight vs Pulsetic: the breakdown Pulsetic has carved out a strong niche around beautifully designed status pages and status badges — the visual polish is the headline feature in most reviews. The underlying monitoring is straightforward HTTP-focused uptime checking from multiple geographic locations. Where Pulsetic stops short is the broader monitoring surface: there's no [DNS drift detection](/features/dns-monitoring), no [domain-expiry monitoring](/features/domain-expiry-monitoring), no [port checks](/features/port-monitoring), no [heartbeat/cron monitoring](/features/cron-job-monitoring), and no structured incident management with severity, timelines, and post-mortem fields. Teams that grow past "is my homepage up?" tend to need those next. FourSight covers the broader monitoring workload while still giving you a brandable public [status page](/features/status-pages). The trade-off is honest: Pulsetic's status pages are more visually opinionated; FourSight's are functional, brandable with custom CSS on Pro, and part of a wider monitoring + incident-management product. (Price the tiers side by side on the [Pulsetic pricing comparison](/compare/pulsetic-pricing).) Advantages ## Why teams choose FourSight over Pulsetic ### 8 monitor types vs HTTP-focused Pulsetic focuses on HTTP monitoring. FourSight adds SSL, DNS, domain expiry, keyword, ping, port, and heartbeat/cron monitoring for complete infrastructure coverage. ### Multi-region quorum consensus Pulsetic checks from many locations but doesn't use consensus voting. FourSight's 4-region quorum approach is designed specifically to eliminate false positives. ### Full incident management FourSight auto-creates incidents with severity levels (critical, major, minor), status updates, and event timelines. Pulsetic has basic incident notifications. ### Maintenance windows Schedule recurring or one-time maintenance to suppress alerts and display banners on status pages. Pulsetic doesn't offer this. Pricing ## Pricing: FourSight vs Pulsetic FourSight Free: 10 monitors, multi-region consensus, email alerts, 1 status page, incident management. Pulsetic Free: 1 monitor, limited features (as published July 2026 — verify with the vendor). FourSight Starter ($16/mo): 50 monitors, 1-min intervals, Slack & webhooks, maintenance windows.

Here's the fair version — when FourSight is the right call, and when Pulsetic still is. ### Choose FourSight if… FourSight is the better fit when monitoring matters as much as status-page presentation. - You need DNS, domain, port, SSL, or heartbeat/cron checks alongside HTTP. - You want structured incidents with severity and an event timeline. - You want maintenance windows that suppress alerts and annotate the status page. - Multi-region quorum consensus is a hard requirement. ### Choose Pulsetic if… Pulsetic is still a good choice in these situations. - Status-page presentation is the single most important feature for your audience. - You want status badges embedded across marketing pages. - You only need HTTP uptime monitoring and prefer Pulsetic's UI. Migration ## How to migrate from Pulsetic to FourSight Pulsetic users mostly need to recreate monitors and rebuild the status page. There's no importer — monitors are re-created manually, which for a typical Pulsetic setup takes well under half an hour. Estimated time: 15–25 minutes 1. 1 ### List monitors and status pages Note every monitor URL, the public status pages you maintain, and any custom domains in use. 2. 2 ### Recreate monitors in FourSight Use HTTP for most Pulsetic checks. Add SSL, DNS, Domain, Port, or Heartbeat monitors if you've wanted those features in Pulsetic. 3. 3 ### Build the public status page Add a status page, attach your monitors, set the brand colors and (on Pro) custom CSS. 4. 4 ### Map custom domains Point the same CNAME from Pulsetic to FourSight's status-page host. DNS TTL determines how long the switch takes. 5. 5 ### Cancel Pulsetic Once subscribers and uptime history have transitioned, cancel Pulsetic at the end of the billing period.
