Avaza vs. Statuspage

We are a pretty unique business because we deal with bookkeeping, marketing, and HR and across all 3 departments, we have been able to successfully use the tool. Other software we have tried usually caters to one industry at a time.

StatusPage is well suited for notifications on services and products. If you need to have a passive way to notify users, internal staff, or executives on the status of SaaS services, StatusPage is a low barrier way to do this with minimal setup and maintenance. StatusPage is not well suited for scenarios in which you want info kept private. If StatusPage is updated, the subscribers to those alerts will be notified so you just want to make sure you're addressing the right audience with updates.

• Interface is very intuitive and easy to use with very little training.
• Ability to customize messaging for events and notify before, during and after maintenance.
• Integrations with app like Twitter and Slack.
• Ability to automate all our maintenance notifications.

• The interface and taxonomy could use an update, sometimes it's hard to figure out where things logically are or should be.

Avaza is very easy to use, but the mobile app needs work.

They are always available and open to doing a call or a shared screen to walk through the issues.

Support is very responsive although we haven't had to contact them in a time of emergency, all of our support inquiries were answered in a timely manner and usually resolved with their first response. Support responsiveness played a big role in our decision since if we need help during downtime, we can't really afford to wait.

Avaza takes the easy of Asana and adds the invoicing and bookkeeping capabilities you need all in one place.

I would say StatusPage on its own is a great service. StatusPage for Hipchat can only be used with that specific chat client. But on its own StatusPage can be integrated with many tools, like Slack, email notifications, text notifications, etc. I don't know of a tool that compares with StatusPage. You could essentially host your own status site with Greed Yellow or Red statuses, but you would be missing out on the robustness of a tool that keeps historical data, uptime, and segregates services based on components.
