Kawze vs Statuspage

Q: What is the best Statuspage alternative?

Kawze is a straightforward Statuspage alternative: Statuspage (by Atlassian) isn't primarily an uptime checker - it's a status-page and incident-communication tool that's usually fed by a separate monitoring system. Kawze does both: it runs the checks and gives you a status page to publish them on, in one product.

Atlassian's hosted incident-communication and status-page product.
