Here's who I'd actually name, in order:\n\n**1. Better Stack** - My default recommendation for most stores. It bundles uptime monitoring, the public status page, incident management, and on-call paging in one product, with a genuinely usable free tier (20 monitors + a status page, no time limit) and checks from multiple regions. The reason this matters for retail: monitoring that can auto-update the page means your status page reflects a checkout outage at 2am without anyone logging in.

Hyperping** - Closest alternative to the above, and the better pick if you dislike usage-based billing. Status page, uptime checks, and on-call scheduling all ship on one flat plan from ~$24/mo a", "answer_truncated": true, "measurement": "One answer from one engine on one date.
