The short version

  • Only Site24x7 has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Site24x7 website and infrastructure monitoring are sold as separate plan tracks; the entry Web Uptime plan ($9/month annual) covers only 25 websites and does not include server monitoring, which requires a separate Lite infrastructure plan; WebStorm jetBrains WebStorm is sold as an annual subscription rather than a one-time purchase: commercial price is $199 per year (USD), and personal price starts at $299 in year one, dropping to $239 in year two and $179 from year three onward with continuous renewal.
