Frequently Asked Questions

Why is my Uptime Kuma instance not sending alerts?

Self-hosted Uptime Kuma notification issues are usually due to misconfigured notification services, network/firewall blocks, or missing API credentials. Check your notification settings and test them individually.

Why is Uptime Kuma showing incorrect status?

Incorrect status can result from network issues on your server, DNS problems, or incorrect monitor configurations. Check your server's network connectivity and verify monitor URLs are correct.

Is Uptime Kuma better than paid alternatives?

Uptime Kuma is excellent for self-hosting enthusiasts who want full control. However, you're responsible for uptime of your monitoring server. Paid services like PerkyDash offer managed reliability.

How do I make Uptime Kuma highly available?

For HA, run multiple Uptime Kuma instances behind a load balancer, use a shared database, and ensure your monitoring server itself is monitored by an external service.
