A simpler alternative to Statuspage
Pair monitoring + SMS alerts with a customer-facing status page.
Why a status page matters
A status page gives customers clarity during incidents and prevents your inbox from exploding with “is it down?” messages.
- Fewer support tickets during downtime
- More trust through transparency
- One link you can share everywhere
Monitoring + status page (together)
The best status page is backed by monitoring. StatusMonkey pairs checks with alerts, so you can acknowledge issues quickly and keep customers updated.
