Instatus Out For Linux

Instatus Out is a unique, cross-platform app capable of monitoring the services you or your team is dependent on and alerting you of potential downtimes and other similar problems.

Instatus Out stated out in life as a simple monitoring/alert tool (now in the form of the Free version), but thanks to its Pro and Business plans, it is even capable of alerting all your customers of potential downtimes as well.

At first glance, Instatus Out is a stylish and modern, little app that integrates with the system's taskbar/menubar. It provides a straightforward GUI that allows you to choose the services you want to monitor.

The list of supported services is huge and it includes big names such as Atlassian, Asana, Zoom, Slack, Dropbox, GitHub, Docker, Bitbucket, Basecamp, just to name a few.

Of course, you can add custom services, too.

As mentioned before, the Free plan is perfectly suited for users who just want to stay informed regarding the uptime or potential downtimes of services they depend on.

However, Instatus Out really shines when it comes to helping you keep your customers in the loop.

Instatus integrates nicely with other uptime monitoring services, and can even report potential problems to any customer-facing page. This can drastically reduce support tickets, thus improving the user experience as well as freeing up time for your team.

Instatus Out provides its users with one of the best documentation sections out there. You're provided with comprehensive API and status reporting automation information. In short, all the info you need to integrate Instatus Out in your product and get instant status reporting.

The Free plan of Instatus Out is already a lot more generous when compared to the app's competition such as Uptime Robot and Statuspage, as it provides an unlimited number of subscribers and teams.

The API is free, and there are numerous customization options such as custom HTML and CSS editing. This makes it perfect for anyone looking to make the product perfectly fit their brand.

There's a lot to love about Instatus Out. The Free plan is amazing, the other plans are competitively priced, the GUI is clean and stylish, the customer service is top-notch, and the overall customizability is great, making integration exceptional.

Of course, Instatus is still a very young product, so hopefully, it will only get better with time. Still, as is, Instatus is one of the most extendible services of its kind, and probably the best overall value for the money.
