Frequently asked questions

• Does Atlassian Statuspage monitor uptime?

  No. Statuspage handles status pages and incident updates, nothing else. It never checks whether your websites or servers are actually up. That job falls to a separate monitoring tool, and you have to push its results into Statuspage yourself or through integrations. Pulsetic does both in one place. It watches your uptime and hosts your status page together, so there is no second product to buy or wire in.

• Why is Atlassian Statuspage so expensive?

  Paid Statuspage plans open at $29 per month, then climb with your subscriber count: $99 per month at 1,000 subscribers, $399 per month at 5,000, $1,499 per month at 25,000. And that price ignores the monitoring service you still have to pay for elsewhere, so your real bill runs higher than the number on the page. Pulsetic starts at $9 per month with monitoring and status pages in the same plan. That bundle is why teams move over to cut costs.

• How does Statuspage pricing scale as I add subscribers?

  Every Statuspage tier puts a ceiling on how many subscribers can follow your page. Cross it and you are bumped to the next plan. The steps are steep: $29 per month for 250 subscribers, $99 per month for 1,000, $399 per month for 5,000, and a top public tier of $1,499 per month for 25,000. Pulsetic paid plans begin at $9 per month with subscriber notifications already included, so a growing audience will not shove you toward an enterprise-priced tier nearly as fast.

• What is the best cheaper alternative to Atlassian Statuspage?

  Pulsetic stands out because it covers two jobs you would normally pay for on their own: uptime monitoring, plus a customizable status page with subscriber notifications and status badges. Paid plans with all of that start at $9 per month, and a free tier covers the monitoring and three status pages. Statuspage, by contrast, asks $29 per month for the page by itself, before you add a monitoring tool. With Pulsetic it is one bill, one login, one place to run it all.

• What can Pulsetic monitor that Statuspage cannot?

  Statuspage runs no checks of its own, so it can never spot an outage by itself. Pulsetic watches HTTP(S), SSL certificates, keywords, ping or ICMP, ports, TCP, domains, and cron or heartbeat jobs, with uptime checks as often as every 30 seconds on the Team plan and above. When a check fails and a second location confirms it, Pulsetic alerts you and shows the monitor as down on your status page, with no one logging in to update it. Declaring an incident, which is what emails your subscribers, stays your call. Incident updates and subscriber emails start on the $9 Solo plan.

• Can I migrate from Atlassian Statuspage to Pulsetic?

  Yes. Rebuild your status page in Pulsetic, add your monitors, repoint your custom domain, and on the $9 Solo plan or above, invite subscribers to follow the new page. And since Pulsetic does the monitoring too, the switch is a chance to drop the separate monitoring tool you kept running next to Statuspage. Stuck mapping components or importing data? The support team will walk you through it.

• Does Pulsetic have a free plan, and how does it compare to Statuspage's free tier?

  Yes. Pulsetic has a free plan, and it comes with three status pages on a domain you own. Statuspage does offer a free tier, but it caps you at 100 subscribers, blocks custom domains, and still bundles no monitoring, which leaves you needing a second tool just to learn you are down. Pulsetic lets you begin free with monitoring and a status page side by side, then move up from $9 per month for branding, subscribers and incident updates as you grow.

• Can I customize my Pulsetic status page and use my own domain?

  Yes. Pulsetic status pages run on your own custom domain on every plan, Free included, so they live right next to your product, and you can translate their labels and dates on any plan. From the $9 Solo plan you can drop in your logo and colors, embed a status badge and let visitors subscribe for updates, and the Team plan removes Pulsetic branding entirely. Monitoring is built in, so the page refreshes itself when a watched service goes down. A status-page-only tool like Statuspage cannot manage that alone.
