The honest take: Checkly is an incredibly powerful platform if you need to run heavy browser-level E2E tests using Playwright. But if you just need to validate REST API payloads, check status codes, and test multi-step sequences, ContinuumNexus offers a much simpler, faster setup and transparent pricing.
