The Key Difference

Atlassian Statuspage is status pages only. You manually update your status page when things break. But how do you know things are broken? You need separate monitoring—another tool, another subscription, another dashboard to check.

UptimeSignal does both. We monitor your endpoints every minute. When something fails, we alert you immediately. Your status page reflects real uptime data—not just what you remember to update at 3 AM.

This isn't just about convenience. Manual status updates mean your status page is always behind reality. With UptimeSignal, your status page shows actual uptime percentages and response times from real monitoring data.

The total cost comparison:
Statuspage ($29/mo) + Monitoring tool (~$15/mo) = $44+/month
UptimeSignal: $15/mo for both

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I migrate from Statuspage to UptimeSignal?
Create a new status page in UptimeSignal, set up your monitors, configure your custom domain using our proxy setup guide, and update your DNS. The process takes about 15-20 minutes. Your old Statuspage can remain active during the transition, so there's no downtime.
Does UptimeSignal support subscriber notifications?
Yes. UptimeSignal supports email subscriber notifications for status updates and incidents. Users can subscribe to your status page and receive email notifications when incidents are created or updated. Statuspage offers additional channels like SMS—if you need SMS notifications, that's a point in Statuspage's favor.
Can I import my components from Statuspage?
Currently, components need to be recreated manually in UptimeSignal. However, since UptimeSignal includes monitoring, you'll typically create monitors that automatically populate your status page with real uptime data rather than maintaining static components that require manual updates.
What integrations does UptimeSignal support?
UptimeSignal provides webhooks for CI/CD integration (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins, etc.) and alerts to Slack, Discord, Telegram, and email. The key difference is UptimeSignal includes monitoring, so you need fewer external integrations. Statuspage has deeper Atlassian ecosystem integrations (Jira, Opsgenie).
Is there an API for programmatic status updates?
Yes. UptimeSignal provides webhooks to programmatically create incidents, update component status, and manage maintenance windows. This enables full CI/CD integration—set maintenance mode before deployments and restore operational status automatically when deploys succeed.
How does custom domain setup work?
UptimeSignal uses a proxy approach for custom domains. You configure a reverse proxy (Cloudflare Workers, Vercel, Nginx, or Caddy) to serve your status page at your domain. This gives you control over SSL certificates and routing. We provide copy-paste configurations for each platform. The setup takes about 5 minutes.
