CompleteStatus vs Oh Dear
Oh Dear is a beautifully-made, developer-loved monitoring tool with strong uptime, certificate, broken-link and DNS checks, and excellent status pages. Its Pro plan is around $77/mo for 50 sites. CompleteStatus Pro covers 50 monitors at $19/mo, adds the security-header and email-authentication layer, and — importantly for agencies — lets you resell your status pages, which Oh Dear's terms do not.

What only CompleteStatus brings
Who should choose which
Choose Oh Dear if you love its polish, want its excellent mixed-content and scheduled-task checks, and don't need to resell monitoring — it's a superb tool for a single team monitoring its own sites.
Choose CompleteStatus if you want the same core coverage at roughly a quarter of the price, the freedom to resell white-label status pages and reports (which Oh Dear's terms prohibit), and the built-in security-header and SPF/DKIM/DMARC layer.
