A SaaS status page is a public page that shows the real-time health of your product’s services so customers can see whether everything is working, degraded, or down.
What it usually includes
- Current system status: Operational / Degraded / Partial outage / Major outage
- Service components: API, dashboard, authentication, billing, emails, etc.
- Incident history: Past outages and resolutions
- Scheduled maintenance: Upcoming maintenance windows
- Subscriptions: Email/SMS/RSS updates for customers
- Uptime metrics: 30-day or 90-day availability
Why it matters
- Reduces support tickets during incidents
- Builds trust and transparency
- Gives customers a single source of truth
- Helps communicate quickly during outages
Common tools
- Atlassian Statuspage
- Better Stack
- UptimeRobot
- Better Uptime
- Cachet (open source)
Best practices
- Keep it honest and updated during incidents
- Use plain language
- Show component-level status, not just “everything is fine”
- Post incident updates with timestamps
- Include a clear incident resolution summary afterward
Example structure
- Home: Overall status
- Components: API, web app, auth, payments
- Incidents: Active and past incidents
- Maintenance: Upcoming planned work
- Subscribe: Email alerts
