The Instatus alternativeInstatus runs your status page. InfraNest also runs what is behind it.
Instatus is a good status page with its own monitoring. InfraNest does that too, with three pages on your own domain from Pro and no limit on subscribers — and it manages the domains, DNS, certificates and servers your services depend on, so you can fix what the page is reporting.

Why teams choose InfraNest over Instatus
More pages for less
Three pages on your own domain on Pro at €24, and unlimited pages on Business — one per client or product.
No limit on subscribers
As many people as you like can follow your page, on every plan. Your price does not grow with your audience.
Fix what the page reports
The domain, DNS record, certificate or server behind an incident is in the same account, so you can act on it right away.
Incident links that keep working
Every incident gets its own permanent link, still working long after it is resolved.
More than a status page
All of this is included in every plan, also on Free. Instatus does not manage any of it.
Domains
All your domains from every registrar in one list, with expiry dates, renewals and settings.
DomainsDNS
Edit DNS records at every provider from one screen. We can even set up the record for your status page domain.
DNSCertificates
Every SSL certificate found for you and watched until it expires, each with an A–F grade.
CertificatesCloud servers
All servers from all your clouds in one list, with memory, disk and the services running on them.
Cloud serversFirewalls
See which ports are open in plain words, get warned about risky rules, and never lock yourself out.

Let InfraNest act for you: post to your status page, open a ticket, or restart a server when a check fails.

Questions
#Can InfraNest replace Instatus?
Yes: status pages on your own domain, built from your monitoring, with subscribers by email, Slack, Teams or Discord. On top of that, InfraNest manages your domains, DNS, certificates and servers.
#Is InfraNest cheaper than Instatus?
For more than one page, yes: InfraNest Pro includes three pages on your own domain for €24 a month, while Instatus includes three on Business at $225. For a single page the two Pro plans cost about the same.
#Is there a subscriber limit?
No. Every InfraNest plan, including Free, has no limit on subscribers. Instatus allows 200 on Starter and 5,000 on Pro.
#Does my status page update automatically?
Yes. Every service on the page is backed by a monitoring check, so when a check fails the page changes on its own and subscribers get an update.
#Can my status page be private?
Yes, on Business: private and password-protected pages, plus a team view with who is on call and a runbook per service. Instatus offers private pages on Pro too.
#Can I use my own domain?
Yes, from Pro. HTTPS is set up for you, and if your DNS is managed in InfraNest we create the record too.
#Can I import my Instatus page?
Not yet. Rebuilding a page takes about five minutes, and you can keep Instatus online until you move your domain.
#Do I have to move my domains or DNS?
No. They stay where they are. InfraNest manages them through the accounts you connect.
