Sematext vs Pingdom
SolarWinds Pingdom is great for basic uptime checks, but it’s not a full-observability solution. In fact, you’d have to purchase multiple SolarWinds solutions - Pingdom, Loggly, and AppOptics - in order to get what Sematext offers on one platform.

Unified Solutions for Easy Data Correlation
SolarWinds boasts a lot in terms of capabilities, but their solutions are loosely stitched together.
In order to get the same insight that Sematext offers with a single solution, you’d have to utilize Pingdom, Loggly, and AppOptics. This means swapping between URLs, and the UX as well as the UI greatly suffers.
Logging, Synthetics, Real-User Monitoring, and Infrastructure Monitoring
Pingdom only offers real user monitoring and synthetic monitoring. This might be useful for some, but for those who want full visibility, you’ll have to invest in another one of SolrWinds expensive tools.
