- Pick SitePulse if you want monitoring + status page in one product at $9/mo flat. You get an automatic status page that reflects monitor state — no separate monitoring tool required.
- Honest gaps in SitePulse vs Statuspage: no formal incident workflow, no subscriber notifications, no component-level status, no custom-domain status page yet.

When Atlassian Statuspage is the right call
- You need formal incident management workflow with named states and post-mortem support.
- Component-level status (API, Dashboard, Webhooks each shown separately) matters.
- Subscribers need email / SMS / Slack notifications when incidents are posted.
- A custom-domain status page (status.yourcompany.com) is non-negotiable.
- You already have monitoring (Datadog, PagerDuty) and just need the public status surface.
When SitePulse is the right call
- You want monitoring + status page in one product, not two tools to wire together.
- $9/mo flat works better than $29+/mo Statuspage + a separate monitor.
- A simple, automatic status page that reflects monitor state is enough — no formal incident workflow needed.
- You're an indie dev or small SaaS, not a 50-person engineering org.

Frequently asked questions
Atlassian Statuspage doesn't include uptime monitoring?+
Correct. Atlassian Statuspage is a status page product — it gives you the public-facing page where you communicate incidents, but it does not run probes against your URLs. To use Statuspage, you typically pair it with a separate monitoring tool (Datadog, PagerDuty, Better Uptime, etc.) that fires webhooks into Statuspage when an incident starts. SitePulse bundles both: the monitor that detects the outage AND the public status page that shows it.
How much do Statuspage + a monitor actually cost together?+
If you want both pieces, you typically pay for Statuspage ($29+/mo Starter) plus a monitoring tool. Cheapest pairing is something like UptimeRobot Pro (~$7/mo) + Statuspage Starter ($29) = $36+/mo. SitePulse Pro is $9/mo for both. For most indie SaaS who want 'monitor + status page', SitePulse is 4x cheaper because you don't need two tools.
When is Atlassian Statuspage actually worth $29+/mo?+
When you need its formal incident management workflow: investigating → identified → monitoring → resolved transitions, component-level status (e.g., 'API: degraded, Dashboard: operational'), subscriber notifications via email/SMS/Slack/webhook, scheduled maintenance windows with advance notice. These are real features Atlassian Statuspage does well, and they matter at company scale where customers expect formal status communications. SitePulse doesn't have these yet.
Can I use SitePulse just for the status page?+
Yes. SitePulse's free plan includes a public status page (5 monitors, 5-minute checks, custom slug at /status/your-slug). The status page is automatic — it reflects whatever your monitors are showing. You don't get the formal incident management workflow Statuspage offers, but for an indie SaaS just showing customers 'are we up?', SitePulse covers it for free.
Does SitePulse have a custom domain status page?+
Not yet. Today, SitePulse status pages live at sitepulse.satosushi.co/status/your-slug. Custom domains (status.yourdomain.com) are on the roadmap. Atlassian Statuspage supports custom domains on paid plans. If a branded status URL is critical for you today, that's a real reason to pick Statuspage.
Does SitePulse have a free plan that includes the status page?+
Yes — free forever, 5 monitors, 5-minute checks, public status page included, no credit card. Atlassian Statuspage's free tier is significantly more limited (2 team members, very basic feature set; most useful capabilities require the $29/mo Starter plan or higher).
