A CheckView alternative for WooCommerce and Magento stores
CheckView is a well-known automated tester for WordPress forms and WooCommerce checkouts. It is a good tool. Whether it is the right one depends on how many stores you run, which platform they are on and how quickly you need to know. This is a fair look at the differences.
What CheckView offers
From its public site: a cloud service that tests WordPress forms and WooCommerce checkouts on a daily, weekly or monthly schedule, with no plugin required, alerts by email, Slack and webhooks, and screenshots, video and console logs when a test fails.
Its published plans (as of September 2026) meter tests per month across unlimited websites. The entry plan covers forms only; WooCommerce checkout testing starts on the next plan up. Check the current pricing page, as plans change.
Where the two differ
Platform: CheckView targets WordPress, forms first. MageSentinel is built around the checkout on both WooCommerce and Magento, so an agency with a mix of stores uses one tool.
Frequency and limits: a per-month test allowance is spent by frequency. Checking one store every 30 minutes is about 1,440 runs a month, which is more than the monthly tests of some plans. MageSentinel counts stores instead: 1 on Solo, 5 on Starter, 20 on Agency, 1,000 on Scale, with checks every 30, 30, 15 and 5 minutes.
Price: Solo is €7.90 a month for one store, Starter €39 for five. Compare the figure you would actually pay for the number of stores and the frequency you need, not the entry price.
When CheckView is the better choice
If your main concern is contact and lead forms, or you want broad coverage of WordPress form plugins, a form tester is built for that. If one daily check of a WooCommerce checkout is enough, a lower-frequency plan can be all you need.
If your risk is a checkout that stops selling between two daily checks, or you run Magento as well as WooCommerce, a store-based monitor with 5 to 30 minute checks fits better.
Try it on your own store
The fastest comparison is to run both on the same store for a week and see which one tells you what broke, where and when. MageSentinel has a 14-day free trial with no card, and a free one-off WooCommerce checkout checker that walks your checkout once without signing up.
