Read this page as one judge. Each weighs the same scores by what they care about.

The Skeptic

Weighted verdict

Has seen "30-second checks from 20 locations" that paged the whole team for a single probe's network glitch, a status page that went down with the product it reported on, and "unlimited SMS" with a fair-use clause on page nine. Asks how a failure is confirmed, how long the history is kept and whether it can be exported, where the monitor itself publishes its own outages — and what leaving would cost.

Same scores as the panel view — this lens weights them the way this judge cares.

Checks, locations & failure confirmation

How this is scored

What can be monitored and how reliably a failure is detected: HTTP(S) with status code and keyword checks, TCP and port, ping, DNS records, SSL certificate and domain expiry, cron jobs and heartbeats, multi-step API checks with assertions, browser or transaction checks of a login or checkout, the shortest check interval, the number and regions of probe locations, the re-check from a second location before an alert, timeouts and response time thresholds, and private locations inside the customer's own network.

0 — Runs no checks of its own; a status page or alerting tool that only receives signals from other monitors.

3 — HTTP checks of a URL at a fixed interval with an up or down result; keyword, SSL, cron and the probe locations are basic or not described.

5 — HTTP(S), keyword, TCP or port, ping and SSL expiry checks, cron or heartbeat monitoring, an interval of one minute or less, several named probe locations, a failure confirmed from a second location before alerting, and response times recorded per check.

8 — Multi-step API checks with assertions on headers and body, browser or transaction checks of a user flow, DNS and domain expiry checks, sub-minute intervals, probe locations listed by city with the confirmation logic documented, private locations or agents for internal services, and maintenance windows that pause checks.

10 — Coverage and accuracy a reliability team runs on: every check type above with code-based checks (for example Playwright or scripted tests) in version control, location-specific thresholds, false-positive handling and probe health published, and the detection method documented so a result can be reproduced.

Report an error

The Skeptic

The captured pages show a communication endpoint, not a monitor: component status arrives from DataDog, New Relic, Librato or Pingdom, or from an email whose subject line contains UP or DOWN, and the product's own pitch is real-time status communication to users. I found no public information on any HTTP, ping, TCP or SSL check Statuspage runs itself, on probe locations or check intervals, so there is no second-location confirmation of a failure because no failure is detected here. 1 3

Alerting, escalation & on-call

How this is scored

How the right person learns about a failure: alert channels (email, SMS, phone call, push app, Slack, Microsoft Teams, Telegram, webhooks), alerts to PagerDuty, Opsgenie or similar tools, escalation policies when an alert is not acknowledged, on-call schedules and rotations, acknowledge and resolve from the app, alert grouping and noise reduction, recovery notifications, maintenance windows that mute alerts, and whether SMS and calls are included or charged per message.

0 — No alerting at all; results can only be viewed in the dashboard.

3 — Email alerts and one or two chat integrations; escalation, phone calls and schedules are basic or not described.

5 — Email, SMS, a mobile push app, Slack, Microsoft Teams and webhooks, alerts forwarded to PagerDuty or Opsgenie, per-monitor alert contacts, recovery notifications, a delay or threshold before alerting, and maintenance windows that mute alerts.

8 — Phone call alerts, escalation policies with timeouts, on-call schedules and rotations with overrides, acknowledge and resolve from the app or chat, alert grouping, incident timelines with who did what, and the price of SMS and calls stated per country or included in the plan.

10 — On-call that replaces a separate incident tool: follow-the-sun schedules, escalation across teams, alert routing by service and severity, post-incident reviews generated from the timeline, and delivery of every alert channel monitored and reported.

Report an error

The Skeptic

Statuspage notifies subscribers — email, SMS and webhook on component changes and maintenance, an auto-tweet, and a reminder 60 minutes before a maintenance window — which is communication, not paging. The escalation rules, phone calls and on-call rotations in the captured pages belong to Opsgenie, a separate Atlassian product whose alerts update the page rather than being driven by it; I found no public information on escalation or acknowledgement workflows inside Statuspage, or on what an SMS to a subscriber costs. 3 11 13

Report an error

Status pages & incident communication

How this is scored

How customers and colleagues are told: public status pages on a custom domain with SSL, components and component groups fed automatically by monitors or set by hand, incident updates and scheduled maintenance announcements, subscribers notified by email, SMS, RSS or webhook, uptime history shown per component, private or password-protected pages for internal teams or single customers, branding and custom CSS, several languages, page templates, and how the status page itself stays online when the main product is down.

0 — No status page of any kind.

3 — A public status page listing monitors with their current state; custom domain, incident updates and subscribers are basic or not described.

5 — Public status pages on a custom domain, components linked to monitors, incident updates and scheduled maintenance, email subscribers, uptime history per component, the vendor's branding removable, and a password-protected or private page option.

8 — Component groups, SMS, RSS and webhook subscribers with per-component subscriptions, private pages with single sign-on or IP restriction, several languages, incident templates, embeddable status widgets, audience-specific pages for single customers, and the status page hosting kept separate from the main service and documented.

10 — Incident communication end to end: incidents drafted from monitor events and approved by a person, updates published to the page, subscribers, chat and social channels at once, a full incident archive with post-mortems, status page uptime published, and accessibility of the page stated.

Report an error

The Skeptic

This is the core product: public, private and audience-specific pages on a custom domain with CSS/HTML/JS control, components and groups, incident templates, scheduled maintenance with four states and automated component changes, email/SMS/webhook subscribers with per-component subscriptions, SAML single sign-on on private pages, and embeddable status widgets. The 90-day uptime showcase publishes its formula — partial outages weighted at 30 percent — but the record is the customer's own declarations and stays editable by hand. I found no public information on RSS delivery, additional page languages, or how the page's hosting stays independent of the service it reports on when that service falls over. 1 3 5 13 15 16

Report an error

API, monitoring as code & team administration

How this is scored

How the tool fits a team and a deployment pipeline: a documented REST API to create and read monitors, status pages and incidents, a Terraform provider, CLI or monitoring-as-code workflow, checks run from CI/CD before a deploy, bulk import of monitors, integrations with ticketing and chat tools, team members with roles, single sign-on (SAML) and SCIM, audit logs, several teams or client accounts in one organisation, white-label or client reporting for agencies, and two-factor authentication.

0 — No API, no team accounts; one login per account and monitors are set up only by hand.

3 — A web dashboard with a few team members; the API, roles and multi-client set-up are basic or not described.

5 — A documented REST API covering monitors and status pages, webhooks, team members with roles, two-factor authentication, bulk import or a CSV upload of monitors, and several projects, teams or client groups in one account.

8 — A Terraform provider or monitoring-as-code CLI with checks kept in version control, checks triggered from CI/CD, single sign-on (SAML), SCIM provisioning, audit logs, sub-accounts for clients with their own logins, and white-label client reports.

10 — Administration that scales across many teams and clients: every setting reachable by API and code with parity stated, granular roles per resource, SSO enforced with SCIM, audit logs exportable to a SIEM, and agency or reseller accounts with separate billing.

Report an error

The Skeptic

A documented REST API with a downloadable OpenAPI spec, per-page role-based access control, team members managed per plan through Atlassian admin groups, SAML single sign-on — via Atlassian Guard for team members, natively for private-page viewers — and IP allowlisting are all evidenced. The API is capped at one request per second unless you ask for an increase; I found no public information on a Terraform provider, CI/CD checks, SCIM provisioning, audit logs or two-factor authentication, and team members beyond a plan's allocation are handled by contacting support to increase the allocation. 1 4 16 17

Uptime reports, data & the vendor's own reliability

How this is scored

What the record is worth and whether the monitor itself can be trusted: uptime and SLA reports per monitor and period, response time charts and percentiles, scheduled reports by email, client-facing reports, how long check results and incident history are kept, export of results by CSV or API, the vendor's own public status page and incident history, its SLA, the probe IP addresses and user agent published for allow-listing, and an open-source or self-hosted edition.

0 — No history of any kind; only the current state is shown.

3 — An uptime percentage and a response time chart per monitor; retention, export and the vendor's own status are basic or not described.

5 — Uptime and response time reports per monitor and period, SLA reports, scheduled email reports, the retention period of check results stated, CSV or API export, the probe IPs published, and the vendor's own public status page.

8 — Response time percentiles and breakdowns (DNS, connect, TLS, first byte), client-ready branded reports, retention of a year or more stated per plan, a raw export of check results, the vendor's incident history and post-mortems public, and an SLA with credits published.

10 — A record that holds up in an audit: SLA calculations with their method stated, incident records suitable for ISO 27001, NIS2 or DORA evidence, full history exportable in an open format, a self-hosted or open-source edition with feature parity stated, and the vendor's own availability over several years published.

Report an error

The Skeptic

The uptime showcase keeps 90 days of per-component history on a dedicated /uptime page, with a published formula and links from each bad day to the incident that caused it — but the bars derive from incidents and maintenances the customer records and remain editable by hand, with partial outages counting only 30 percent as bad, so this is a curated record rather than a measurement. I found no public information on scheduled reports, bulk export, response-time data, an SLA with credits, or Atlassian's own status page and incident history; the customer agreement only says a service level agreement is specified where applicable. 4 7 15

European sovereignty

How this is scored

Who the contracting entity and the parent company are, where account data, alert contacts (names and phone numbers of the people on call), status page subscribers and check results are stored and processed, and who the subprocessors are (hosting, SMS and phone gateways, email delivery, support and payment tools). Independently sourced by the sovereignty pipeline. Probe locations outside Europe are part of what the product does and are not counted against it; where the data is stored and who processes it is. A self-hosted or open-source edition the customer runs on its own European servers counts as the customer's chain, whatever the vendor's seat.

0 — Non-EU vendor and contracting entity, hosting unstated, subprocessors unnamed, and no data processing agreement offered.

3 — A privacy policy and a data processing agreement exist, but hosting location is unstated or non-EU and the subprocessors are not listed.

5 — EU hosting available and an EU contracting entity or EU representative, but parts of the chain (SMS and call gateways, email, support, payment) run through non-EU providers without a stated safeguard.

8 — EU hosting on named infrastructure, EU contracting entity, subprocessors listed with their locations, a data processing agreement published, and security certifications (ISO 27001, SOC 2) stated — or a self-hosted edition documented that keeps every record on the customer's own servers.

10 — Sovereign end to end and evidenced: European ownership, entity, hosting and every subprocessor, or a self-hosted open-source edition with no call home, data export and deletion documented, and certifications published with their scope rather than implied.

Report an error

The Skeptic

The contracting party is Atlassian Pty Ltd, incorporated in Australia and addressed care of San Francisco, the named EU representative Atlassian B.V. is also addressed care of San Francisco, and the privacy policy reserves transferring information to wherever Atlassian or its third-party service providers operate. A data processing agreement exists with a published sub-processor list, 30 days' notice of changes and termination as the customer's sole remedy on objection — real paperwork, but I found no public information on where account data, subscriber phone numbers or page history are stored, or on any EU hosting option. 6 7 8 9

Pricing transparency

How this is scored

Whether a buyer can compute the real annual cost from public pages alone: price per tier by number of monitors, check interval and status pages, team seats and on-call responders, what SMS and phone alerts cost, which features (multi-step or browser checks, SSO, longer retention, private locations, white-label) cost extra, the free tier and its limits, overage handling, minimum term and VAT.

0 — No public prices at all; every customer is a sales call.

3 — A starting price or a free tier exists, but how cost scales with monitors, intervals, seats or alerts is unclear.

5 — Tiers are public with their monitor count, interval and main inclusions, but at least one commonly needed piece (SMS or call alerts, extra seats, extra status pages, SSO, longer retention) is unpriced or "on request".

8 — Every tier priced publicly with its scaling rule (monitors, interval, seats, responders, status pages), SMS and call costs stated, add-ons priced, overage handling stated, minimum term and VAT treatment stated.

10 — Complete price computability: annual cost derivable for a given number of monitors, interval, team size and alert volume, with every add-on, overage and support fee and the cancellation and data-return terms published.

Report an error

The Skeptic

Five tiers are public with their subscriber, team member and metric limits — free, Hobby $29 /month, Startup $99 /month, Business $399 /month, Enterprise $1,499 /month — and the free tier states its 100 subscribers, 25 components and two team members. Computability stops there: team-member single sign-on rides on separately sold Atlassian Guard, overages are charged at Atlassian's then current rates, extra team members mean contacting support, and I found no public information on what an SMS to a subscriber costs or on VAT treatment. 1 5 7 17
