Great tool to manage up-time and incident communication

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Statuspage to show current up-time along with communicating incidents to our customer base.

Pros

  • Shows our current up-time across a number of components.
  • Easy to manage an incident and get communication out to our customer base.
  • Ability to look at historical up-time.

Cons

  • I wish I had more ways to customize the layout.
  • I wish I could show custom date ranges when looking at historical up-time.

Return on Investment

  • Helps organize communication to our clients during an incident.
  • Demonstrates our level of transparency to prospects.

Clean and easy-to-use interface makes Statuspage the perfect choice for our support team!

Pros

  • Interface is very intuitive and easy to use with very little training.
  • Ability to customize messaging for events and notify before, during and after maintenance.
  • Integrations with app like Twitter and Slack.
  • Ability to automate all our maintenance notifications.

Cons

  • If you make a mistake, you need to edit on the various platforms like Twitter manually. I wish it would edit the Tweet or delete it and post a new one.

Return on Investment

  • We were able to quickly train our entire support team to use this tool in less than 30 minutes, both to schedule maintenance and publish unexpected downtime. The product is so user friendly that it takes very little training to use proficiently.
  • Ease of integrations with existing services and software like Twitter and Slack allow us to reach further with our notification without creating new intake channels for stakeholders.

StatusPage for Internal and External Service Status Updates

Pros

  • Real-time updates on service status and possible impairment
  • Flexibility to customize notifications
  • Flexibility to customize services, or parts of services which may be impaired

Cons

  • StatusPage is nice because it keeps a rolling update on the previous statuses, but when it displays in Hipchat it just shows the last update.

Return on Investment

  • StatusPage does not have a specific measurable ROI. We use StatusPage as an ad-hoc notification tool.
