## Key **differences**

- #### Fully managed service

  No servers to maintain, no updates to install. Just add your URL and go.

- #### Content verification

  Verify that pages display correct content, prices, and data to visitors.

- #### Error detection

  Catch HTTP errors, broken redirects, and server issues automatically.

- #### Form testing
