StatusHive — The Better Stack Alternative
Better Stack's Team plan is $29/month per license, includes just one status page, and stacks paid add-ons: $12–15 per extra page, $208–250/page for white-label, $42–50/page for password auth. StatusHive is a single $9/month flat price with unlimited pages and none of those line items.
StatusHive vs Better Stack
Better Stack starts cheap per seat — then bills you per page, per customization, and per auth feature. StatusHive has one number.
| What you pay for | StatusHive | Better Stack |
|---|---|---|
| Base plan | $9/mo flat | $29/mo per license $34/mo if billed monthly |
| Extra public status pages | Unlimited, included | $12–15 per page / mo |
| White-label (remove footer) | Included | $208–250 / page / mo |
| Custom CSS / JS | Included | $12–15 / page / mo |
| Password authentication | Included | $42–50 / page / mo |
| SSO | Included | $208–250 / page / mo |
| Team members | Unlimited, no per-seat | Per license ($29–34 each) |
Better Stack add-ons are billed per page. StatusHive's price never changes regardless of page count.
Unlimited pages
Better Stack includes 1 status page and charges $12–15 for each extra one. StatusHive Pro includes unlimited pages — one price, as many product or customer pages as you need.
No per-seat fees
Better Stack bills $29/mo per license (or $34 monthly), so every teammate raises your bill. StatusHive is one flat $9/mo with unlimited team members.
No white-label upsell
Better Stack charges $208–250 per page per month to remove its footer. On StatusHive, white-label and custom styling are part of the flat plan — not a $250/month line item.
One line on the invoice
Better Stack's page, auth, SSO, and styling add-ons compound quickly. StatusHive gives you a single predictable $9/month with everything included.
Frequently asked questions
Is StatusHive cheaper than Better Stack for multiple status pages?
For teams running more than one status page, yes. Better Stack includes 1 status page with its Team plan ($29/mo per license, billed annually) and charges $12–15/month for each additional public page. StatusHive Pro is $9/month flat with unlimited status pages included — no per-page add-ons at all. Prices verified June 2026.
Does StatusHive charge extra for white-label or removing the footer?
No. Better Stack prices white-label (removing the footer) as a paid add-on at roughly $208–250 per page per month, and custom CSS/JS at $12–15 per page per month. StatusHive does not gate these behind separate paid add-ons on its flat Pro plan.
How does StatusHive handle per-seat pricing vs Better Stack?
Better Stack's Team plan is priced per license ($29/mo each on annual billing, $34/mo each monthly), so cost rises with every teammate. StatusHive Pro is a single $9/month flat price with no per-seat charges — add as many team members as you need.
Does StatusHive charge for password protection or SSO on status pages?
On its flat Pro plan, StatusHive does not charge separate per-page fees the way Better Stack does for password authentication ($42–50/page/mo) or SSO ($208–250/page/mo). StatusHive's price is a single flat monthly figure regardless of how many pages you operate.
