In their own words
AppStatus
AppStatus combines uptime monitoring, alerting, incident management, status pages, heartbeat monitoring and host telemetry. Uptime checks cover HTTP, API, Port and Ping from 70 global regions. Notifications support 12 channel types, with condition-based rules, escalation policies, quiet hours and on-call rotation. Monitoring includes SSL certificate tracking and Kubernetes cluster, pod, node and deployment monitoring. Its host agent collects system metrics, process data, logs, security events, container statistics, file-integrity changes, HTTP probe results and active sessions. Agents run on Linux, macOS and Windows hosts, as well as Docker, Kubernetes and cloud virtual machines. Cloud integrations cover services including databases, queues, runtimes and platform services, with every connection read-only by design. AI analyzes incidents and suggests probable root causes using recent changes, alert patterns and incident history. Status pages support custom domains, branding, password protection, email subscribers and maintenance scheduling. The free plan includes five monitors and one status page. Starter costs $6 a month billed annually; REST API access is available on Pro and above.
StatusEntry
StatusEntry is a hosted status page and incident communication tool for businesses. It lets teams share service status with public audiences and employees through a hosted page and communication channels including email, webhooks, Slack, and Twitter. Teams can schedule maintenance, notify subscribers and employees, and create a maintenance-impact incident for monitoring. The service shows uptime history and offers an embeddable status badge that displays the latest status on hover and links to the public page. Its API supports listing, retrieving, creating, updating, and deleting incidents; documented states run from investigating to resolved, with impact values from none to critical. Every listed pricing tier includes a subdomain with SSL. The Free plan costs nothing and includes one user, two services, and unlimited status updates. Startup is $9.99 a month, Business is $19.99 a month, and Enterprise is $39.99 a month. A 30-day trial provides enterprise features, requires no credit card, and can be followed by the free package without a time limit.
