Start with HTTP and DNS checks.
Attach customer-facing services to status-page components.
Document alert routes and maintenance windows before they are needed.
Status pages
Getting started
Create one workspace, one public page, and a short list of critical monitors before adding integrations.
Alerting
Operational setup
Define owners, escalation paths, customer-facing component names, and maintenance procedures.
Status pages
Admin safety
Keep infrastructure-specific details out of public pages and retain them in internal admin notes.
Make the next step useful
Put getting started with ftstatus into an operating workflow
Connect the guidance to a real service, a named owner, a tested notification path, and a customer-safe communication plan.
What to do next
- Start with HTTP and DNS checks.
- Attach customer-facing services to status-page components.
- Document alert routes and maintenance windows before they are needed.
Keep the implementation honest
- Start with one customer-facing service, verify the alert path, and publish only the service impact that customers need to understand.
- Do not publish credentials, internal addresses, server paths, or provider configuration.
- Verify the workflow in staging before it becomes part of a production monitoring or communication path.
Product evidence
A real reliability workflow, not a promise deck.
FTStatus earns trust with a product you can inspect and a setup you can test before it becomes part of a customer-critical service.
View live demoA live public experience
Open a real FTStatus status page and inspect the same component, incident, maintenance, and subscription flow your customers will use.
A testable operating loop
Create a monitor, run the check, verify the alert path, publish customer-safe impact, and retain the incident timeline.
Honest capability boundaries
Live, operator-assisted, managed-only, and planned workflows are labelled so buyers can scope the service without hidden assumptions.
Before you choose
Questions buyers ask before setup.
Clear scope now prevents surprise costs, noisy alerts, and public status pages that expose the wrong detail later.
