If there’s one thing for certain – you can expect IT incidents in 2024. These could be cybersecurity incidents, system outages, or even just degraded performance. Despite the severity, even mild degraded performance can affect your users negatively. Maintenance without proper communication can decrease your reliability. Moreover, outages are costly.

No matter how robust your IT systems are, every business faces incidents at some point. Incidents can include degraded performance, poor response time, service disruptions, outages, and security incidents such as data breaches. This is why it’s key for businesses to have an incident communication plan that ensures all the affected parties are aware of the status of services. This includes DevOps teams, affected accounts, investors, customers, media outlets, etc.

We are excited to announce a new feature on StatusGator that will take your status page to the next level! You can now not only communicate incidents for custom monitors but also schedule maintenance and notify your status page subscribers effortlessly.

We are excited to share that our Early Warning Signals feature, previously in beta, is now fully available to all StatusGator users on all plans. This long-awaited feature ensures you never miss a beat and keeps you informed of outages before a provider publicly acknowledges them on their status page. Since its beta launch, this feature has successfully detected multiple service outages before they were officially acknowledged by each provider.

We’re excited to unveil a major enhancement to the StatusGator dashboard! Our latest update simplifies how you handle alerts, allowing you to manage all your monitor notifications from a single page under Board settings.
