If 2020 taught us anything, it is that a corporate Status Page is an IT ‘must have.’ With this one solution, IT leaders are able to address new challenges of remote work teams, as well as traditional issues — like high IT support costs, employee productivity, stakeholder transparency and IT team efficiency. 2020 was a year marked by the ‘virtualization’ of nearly every aspect of life.
COVID-19 has left colleges and universities scrambling to come up with alternative plans for the 2020 fall semester. Some are opting for 100% online learning while others are taking more of a hybrid approach with a combination of in person and online classes. While schools face an abundance of change this academic year, it’s not just the faculty and students that need to adapt but also the entire IT infrastructure for which the school is run.
COVID-19 has impacted every single aspect of our lives as we knew them. Almost overnight, businesses had to create an entirely new working environment, parents had to become teachers and essential workers become the real heroes. As time goes on, more and more businesses are transitioning to 100% remote workforces.
Often, outages are planned. In fact, in most organizations, outages are typically not caused by something going wrong, but because some kind of IT operation requires your team to take a system temporarily offline. Communicating scheduled maintenance is just as important, if not more important than alerting users to unplanned outages.
There’s nothing worse than turning on your computer to start the work day and discovering the internet is down. We all know the frustration of tediously trying to figure out what’s wrong before finally breaking down and calling our service provider and waiting on hold, only to discover that it’s a known issue and it’s being addressed. What if there was a better way?
Many business leaders are allowing workers to telecommute, to attract more Millennials and remain competitive in the labor market.

To address this new threat, organizations are now setting up remote workplaces, in days, if not hours.

Status pages have evolved quite a bit over the last few years. Not that long ago you would have been lucky to find a simple up/down indicator, but today organizations are truly embracing transparency. They are providing their end users with critical metrics, incident data, maintenance calendars and even the status of their own service provider technologies.
