A Statuspage alternative that monitors for you
Statuspage is Atlassian's status page product, focused on communicating incidents to customers. Uptime Dog combines a status page with the monitoring that detects incidents in the first place.

The main differences
Detection and communication in one place
With a communication-only status page, someone has to notice the problem and update the page, or you connect a monitoring tool to do it. Uptime Dog opens an incident and updates the page when a confirmed failure happens, then resolves both when the check passes. You can still post your own updates, mark them public or internal, and schedule maintenance.
Scale of audience
Statuspage is used by very large companies for very large audiences, with options for that. Our pages are aimed at small and medium teams: email subscribers with double opt-in, password protection, RSS and JSON feeds.
Atlassian integration
If your team lives in Jira and Confluence, Statuspage fits in alongside them. Uptime Dog connects through webhooks, PagerDuty, Opsgenie, chat tools and its REST API instead.
What Uptime Dog includes
Four plans, priced in pounds sterling and billed monthly or yearly through Paddle. Limits per plan, from Free to Business:
- Monitors: Free 20, Essentials 50, Pro 200 and Business 1,000, checked as often as every 20 seconds.

When Statuspage is the better choice
No tool is right for everyone. Statuspage is likely to suit you better if:
- You already use Atlassian products heavily and want the status page alongside them.
- You need audience-specific pages or features for very large subscriber lists.
- You already have monitoring and on-call you are happy with and only need communication.
Moving from Statuspage
Recreate your components as monitors and group them on a Uptime Dog page with display names that match what customers know. Ask subscribers to resubscribe: email lists need their own double opt-in. Then move the status domain with a CNAME and TXT record.
