Reasons to switch
Fixed pricing
LIVCK offers transparent, fixed monthly pricing. No modular add-ons, no surprises at the end of the month.
Self-hosted option
Run LIVCK on your own infrastructure with Docker. Better Stack is cloud-only with no self-hosted option.
GDPR by Design
Self-hosted means full control. Managed runs on German servers. Cloud (public beta) runs on German servers — not just EU regions.
Focused tool
Better Stack tries to be monitoring, logging and statuspage all at once. LIVCK focuses on monitoring and statuspage — and does both right.
