We’ve just opened up the StatusGator API to all users on all plans — even the Free plan. Previously, our REST API was a feature only of our higher level plans. But we’ve opened up the API to all plans to allow more people to take advantage of our status data. The API limits vary by plan by are generous enough to employer real-time dashboards and other uses.

Integrations with Freshdesk, Freshservice or Zendesk have just been released.

A well-built status page is an open communication channel during outages, helping with transparency and trust. According to the research ordered by IBM, the cost of IT downtime reaches $400,000 per hour for enterprises, so learning how to build a status page for your digital product or service can be invaluable for your company. Creating a status page for your company or product ensures transparency and builds trust by keeping users informed, potentially preventing loss of reputation and revenue.
