## The answer, as recorded

Asked on 2026-10-01 through Claude (Anthropic) with web search (model claude-opus-5).

> For an online store there are really two jobs, and the tools split along that line. Here's what I'd actually name:
> 
> ## For publishing your own status page to customers
> 
> **1. Instatus** - My default recommendation for most stores. $20/mo (~$15 annual) gets you 5,000 subscribers; Statuspage charges $399/mo for the same subscriber count. For a store, subscriber count *is* the whole point - during an outage you want to mass-notify shoppers and wholesale buyers without a surprise bill. Free tier covers 15 monitors and a public page if you want to test it.
> 
> **2. Better Stack** - Pick this if you want one vendor for uptime checks, on-call rotation, incident handling, and logs. Good fit if you have a dev team or agency on retainer who'd use the on-call piece. Caveat: pricing is add-on based ($29/user/mo, ~$21 per 50 monitors, $12 per status page), so it climbs faster than it looks.
> 
> **3. Hyperping** - The value play if you need monitoring + status page + alerting together: flat $24/mo with seats included, $74/mo Pro tier. Flat-rate with no usage surprises, which is the opposite of Better Stack's model.
> 
> **4. Atlassian Statuspage** - Only if you're already in Jira/Opsgenie, or you need priv
