Hund review
A focused choice for teams combining multi-region checks with public status pages.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Hund combines managed uptime checks with public status pages for organizations that need to detect disruptions and communicate operational events. Its native monitoring covers ICMP, HTTP, DNS, TCP, and UDP, with multi-region checks, response-body keyword or regular-expression matching, and TLS certificate validation. The product is suited to service teams, small businesses, universities, enterprises, and regulated sectors that need both operational monitoring and a customer-facing incident view.
The published plans center on usage-based components at $29 USD per 20 components per month, billed monthly. That tier includes 20 components per status page, unlimited users, unlimited issues, a REST API, and role-based access control. Hund describes native monitoring as free of charge, while its public product pricing starts with paid status-page usage; the first three native-monitoring regions are free. Enterprise adds custom SLAs, custom contracts, and priority support. Sovereign Enterprise adds dedicated account management, isolated high-availability infrastructure, and custom data residency options.
For teams with a component-based service model, Hund covers a broad monitoring and incident-communication workflow in one product. Checks can run from up to eight regions per check, and alerts can reach email, Slack, Microsoft Teams, SMS, push, and webhooks. Public pages support custom domains and HTTPS, while incident issues, scheduled maintenance, and event timelines help organize service communication. Integrations include AWS CloudWatch, New Relic, PagerDuty, Pingdom, Uptime Robot, and other monitoring or notification services. Choose Hund when status pages and component monitoring are central requirements; consider an alternative if you need a free plan or expect more than 20 components on the starting tier.
