Cachet
Transparently communicate downtime with a beautiful, open-source status page. Automate incidents via API, schedule maintenance, and display system metrics.
Downtime is a reality for any online service, but how you communicate it makes all the difference. Cachet is a powerful, open-source status page system designed to help you transparently communicate incidents and scheduled maintenance. By keeping your customers, teams, and stakeholders in the loop, you can significantly reduce support tickets and build lasting trust.
It provides a complete toolkit for managing system status communication effectively:
- Completely Free & Open-Source: Self-host on your own infrastructure with no vendor lock-in or hidden costs. You have full control over your data and setup.
- Powerful API: Automate your status updates. The robust JSON API allows you to connect your monitoring tools directly for instant incident reporting.
- Custom Metrics: Go beyond simple status updates by visualizing system health. Pipe data from your services to create beautiful, easy-to-read charts for metrics like API response time or error rates.
- Scheduled Maintenance: Inform users about planned downtime in advance to avoid surprises and build confidence.
- Global-Ready: With support for over 10 languages, you can communicate clearly with your entire user base, no matter where they are.
- Secure by Design: Protect your status page with built-in Two-Factor Authentication (2FA).
