Open-source Statuspal alternatives

Cachet is an open-source status page system you host yourself. It gives teams a public page to show whether services are up, announce incidents and publish updates, which reduces support load when something breaks. It is built with PHP and the Laravel framework.

The project is in the middle of a rebuild: the README includes an announcement about Cachet 3.x and links to the plans, and a demo of the v3 dashboard is available that resets itself every 30 minutes. Requirements are PHP 8.3 or later, Composer and one of MariaDB, MySQL, PostgreSQL or SQLite. Documentation covers installing and upgrading, and vulnerabilities should be reported by email to the project.

Cachet's license is listed as 'Other' on GitHub, so check the repository terms. It is run on your own server and suits startups and larger organizations that want to control the hosting of their status communications instead of paying for a hosted status page service.

Kener is a status page system built with SvelteKit and Node.js. It aims to give teams a simple, modern way to publish a good-looking status page with minimal effort, covering the essentials without extra complexity.

The project stresses minimal overhead, a clean interface and easy branding customization. Docker is the recommended way to run it, with published images on Docker Hub and the GitHub container registry, variants for deployment under a subpath such as /status, and a compose file for building from local source. The README warns to set a strong secret key and the public origin URL before the first start.

Kener is MIT-licensed and free. Its README is candid that it is not meant to replace large platforms like Datadog or Atlassian, but to offer a lighter option for communicating service status. The name comes from an Assamese word meaning how is it going.

Statping is a status page and monitoring server for websites and applications. It is aimed at teams and individuals who want a self-hosted alternative to hosted status-page services, automatically checking configured services and rendering a status page with graphs and history.

It is built in Go and ships as a single precompiled binary with no extra runtime dependencies, so it runs on Linux, macOS, Windows, or even a Raspberry Pi, and its Docker image is only about 16MB. The project recommends running the Statping instance on separate infrastructure from the services it monitors, so that a server crash does not also take down the status page. A free mobile app for iOS and Android lets users view services and receive offline notifications.

Statping supports MySQL, Postgres or SQLite as its database, and it exposes an API, a Docker image and installers for EC2, Mac, Linux and Windows. It is released under the GPL-3.0 license, with a live demo available for evaluation.

Statuspage is a command-line generator that creates a status page you can host for free on GitHub. It is aimed at teams or individuals who want a simple incident-communication page without paying for a dedicated status page service, by using a GitHub repository as both the backend and the hosting.

It uses GitHub issues to represent incidents and labels to indicate affected systems and severity levels, such as major outage, degraded performance or investigating. After generating a new repository with the statuspage CLI and a personal access token, users create issues to report problems and then run an update command the tool provides to reflect the incident on the public status page.

The README mentions the author is also alpha-testing a fully automated GitHub App version of the same idea at corestatus.io. Statuspage is installed via pip, with prebuilt binaries for macOS and Linux also available, and is released under the MIT license.

This project is a status page generator built to run entirely on Cloudflare's edge platform. It is aimed at developers who want a lightweight, serverless status page for their websites and APIs without managing a traditional backend server or database.

It periodically checks configured websites and APIs using Cloudflare Workers CRON Triggers, stores status history in Workers KV storage, and displays daily history on a public status page served from the same Worker. When a monitored site's status changes, it can send notifications to Slack, Telegram or Discord through configured webhooks.

Deployment uses a Cloudflare Workers account, optionally through GitHub Actions and a one-click Cloudflare Deploy Button, or manually by editing the project's config.yaml and wrangler.toml files. The project notes it works on both the paid Workers Bundled plan and the free Workers plan with some adjustments. It is written in JavaScript and released under the MIT license.
