Switching cost
- We have not tested Site24x7 export files. The importer reads a CSV with name and URL columns, or a plain list of URLs, and shows a preview before anything is created
- Server, network, application and transaction monitors have no equivalent in Tenium
- Status page addresses on their domain change unless the page is on your own domain
- Alert contacts are not imported: add them again
Price for the same job
100 monitors with one-minute checks. Site24x7 Web Uptime includes 25 websites and sells more in packs of 50 for $18 a month, so for 100 monitors the figure is our arithmetic: the base plan plus two packs (125 websites), $46. Tenium Starter covers 100 monitors at one minute. Pages read 2026-11-08. List prices as published; we update when they change.
What the price gap comes to
Tenium Starter at $7 per month is about 85% cheaper than Site24x7 Web Uptime plus two packs of 50 monitors at $46 per month.
| Tenium Starter | Site24x7 Web Uptime plus two packs of 50 monitors | |
|---|---|---|
| Per month | $7 | $46 |
| Source of their number | The same numbers as our pricing page | Our arithmetic on published prices |
| Difference | Tenium about 85% cheaper | |
This is our arithmetic on the add-on prices listed on their page ($10 + 2 x $18), not a price Site24x7 quotes for 100 monitors. The pricing page also contradicts itself on multi-user support for Web Uptime, and its alerting line for that plan reads "Only email alerts are applicable", so check the plan against your team size and alert channels. Web Perf at $39 includes only 40 websites. Site24x7 covers servers, networks, applications and transactions as well, which Tenium does not try to match. Read 2026-11-08.

- Transaction monitoring and real user monitoring
- SMS and voice-call alerts, which Tenium does not have
- A very large location list: 130+ cities on the product page
- Check intervals down to 10 seconds on the product page
- A dedicated MSP plan with customer portals
Where Tenium is better

- A free plan with 30 monitors
- A smaller product: HTTP, keyword, ping, port, SSL, domain and heartbeat checks without the suite around them
- White-label status pages included on Pro ($29)

Moving from Site24x7
We have not tested Site24x7 export files. Upload a CSV with a name and a URL column (or a plain list of URLs) and Tenium shows a preview before anything is created. Alert contacts, status pages and transaction monitors are not imported: add contacts again and recreate pages by hand.
Nothing is deleted at the source, so your old account keeps running until you cancel it.
Start free Import docsA fair look at Site24x7
Site24x7 is an all-in-one monitoring suite. Its pricing page groups plans by job: website monitoring (Web Uptime, Web Perf, Enterprise Plus Web), infrastructure monitoring, all-in-one monitoring and an MSP plan, with a long list of add-ons priced per month. The website monitoring page lists more than 130 monitoring cities, intervals as low as 10 seconds, multi-step transaction monitoring, SMS, voice-call and push alerts and a 30-day full-feature trial.
It is a strong choice when websites are one part of a larger estate of servers, networks and applications. For an agency that mostly needs uptime checks, status pages and client reports, most of the suite is surplus, and the add-on price list makes the monthly figure harder to predict.
The arithmetic
Site24x7 Web Uptime is $10 a month ($9 billed annually) and includes 25 websites with one-minute polling, one monitoring location and 3 status pages. More monitors are an add-on: 50 uptime monitors for $18 a month, 500 for $140 (their page, read 2026-11-08). For 100 monitors that is $10 plus two packs, or $46 by our arithmetic. Tenium Starter covers 100 monitors with 1 min checks for $7. Site24x7 Web Perf ($39) includes only 40 websites, so it is not the plan for that count.
Two cautions on the Site24x7 side. The page lists multiple users for Web Uptime in one place and marks multi-user support as not available in another, and its alerting line for that plan reads "Only email alerts are applicable". Check both against your team before you count Web Uptime as the like-for-like plan.
- 20 monitors, 1 people: Tenium Starter at $7. For Site24x7: Web Uptime, 25 websites, $10. Tenium comes out about 30% cheaper.
- 100 monitors, 2 people: Tenium Starter at $7. For Site24x7: Web Uptime + 2 x $18 packs of 50 monitors = $46. Tenium comes out about 85% cheaper.
- 400 monitors, 3 people: Tenium Agency at $59. For Site24x7: Web Uptime + a 500-monitor pack = $150. Tenium comes out about 61% cheaper.
Reading those lines
At 20 monitors Site24x7 Web Uptime at $10 is close to Tenium Starter at $7, and a single user is enough for both. At 100 monitors the add-on packs add up. At 400 monitors the 500-monitor pack applies and the figure passes $100; Tenium Pro ($29) covers 300 monitors with 30 s checks, 5 seats and white-label status pages. These are list prices on monthly billing, without tax, and they say nothing about the other things Site24x7 monitors.
What you gain by moving
Tenium is narrower on purpose. Pro includes white-label status pages, escalation, custom request headers and a branded monthly PDF; Agency ($59) adds client workspaces with viewer logins and an automatic report per client. Site24x7 has an MSP plan with customer portals, nine customers included and more as an add-on, which is a different model from per-client workspaces in one flat plan. Failures are confirmed by all two regions before an incident opens.
What you lose by moving
Check this list against what you use:
- Server, network and application monitoring. Tenium watches services from outside and reports nothing from inside a machine.
- Transaction monitoring and real user monitoring.
- SMS and voice-call alerts.
- The size of the location list: 130+ cities on their product page, against the live regions on our checker IP page.
- Check intervals below 30 seconds.
Steps for the switch
A realistic plan for a few dozen website monitors takes an hour or two.
- Write down which Site24x7 monitors are plain website, ping, port or certificate checks. Those have a counterpart; transaction and server monitors do not.
- Upload a CSV with name and URL columns, or paste one URL per line, in Import. We have not tested Site24x7 export files, so read the preview carefully.
- Re-add alert contacts and attach them in bulk.
- Recreate the status page and point a CNAME from your own domain.
- Run both for one billing cycle before you cancel.
When not to switch
You use Site24x7 for servers or applications as well, you depend on its transaction checks, or your alerts rely on SMS and voice calls. Moving only the website checks to Tenium is possible, but then you pay for two tools, and the saving shrinks.
