Statusfield vs IsDown

Both products watch the official status pages of the services you depend on and alert you when something breaks. IsDown has the bigger catalog and a public incident page for your customers; Statusfield starts at $9/mo, puts PagerDuty and API access on much lower tiers, and generates audit-ready monitoring evidence that IsDown does not offer at any price. Here is the honest breakdown.

Only on Statusfield

The one thing nobody else has: monitoring evidence

When a security questionnaire or SOC 2 audit asks “how do you monitor critical vendors?”, Statusfield generates the answer: a report of what you monitored, every incident, and proof your alerts were delivered. No IsDown tier offers an equivalent.

Frequently asked questions

Is Statusfield a good IsDown alternative?

For a team that wants vendor status monitoring with alerts, yes — Statusfield starts at $9/mo vs IsDown’s $27/mo, includes Telegram, and puts PagerDuty and API access on far lower tiers. If you need hosted status pages for your own customers or their larger catalog, IsDown is the better fit today.

Does Statusfield offer hosted status pages?

No. Shareable read-only dashboards and group-based dashboards are on our roadmap, but we do not offer customer-facing status pages with subscriber notifications — IsDown and StatusGator both do.

Can I get compliance or SLA evidence from IsDown?

IsDown offers weekly summaries and data retention windows, but no audit-ready evidence reports. Statusfield’s Team plan generates vendor-monitoring evidence including proof that alerts were delivered — built for security questionnaires and SOC 2 audits.

Why did IsDown’s pricing change?

Their Starter tier went from $19/mo (2024) to $27/mo (2026), and IsDown was acquired by UptimeRobot in June 2026. Pricing facts on this page were last verified in July 2026.
