About StatusCake
What is StatusCake?
StatusCake is an external monitoring platform that checks the availability and performance of websites, APIs, SSL certificates, domains, page speed, and servers from 30+ countries. It sends instant alerts when downtime or issues are detected, so teams can respond before customers notice.
Why use StatusCake?
Website downtime costs revenue and trust. StatusCake solves this by continuously monitoring from outside your infrastructure, with check intervals as fast as 30 seconds. It also tracks page speed for Core Web Vitals, SSL expiry, domain expiry, and server health, giving you a single dashboard for all critical infrastructure.
Who is it for?
StatusCake is ideal for small businesses, DevOps teams, and agencies that need reliable uptime and performance monitoring. It’s not suited for enterprises requiring advanced distributed tracing or APM features—those belong to dedicated observability platforms.
Real use cases
- An e-commerce store gets alerted before its SSL certificate expires.
- A marketing team monitors page speed across global locations to improve Core Web Vitals.
- A DevOps team tracks server CPU and RAM thresholds and routes alerts to their Slack channel.
- A SaaS company uses StatusCake Pages to keep customers informed during incidents.
Key features
- Uptime Monitoring — Get alerted within 30 seconds if your website or API goes down, from multiple global locations.
- Page Speed Monitoring — Track performance from different locations and identify issues hurting Core Web Vitals and SEO.
- SSL Monitoring — Get warned before your SSL certificate expires, preventing security warnings and ranking drops.
- Domain Monitoring — Know when your domain is about to expire or if DNS changes, so you never lose your web presence.
- Server Monitoring — Monitor CPU, RAM, and disk usage with custom thresholds and receive alerts when exceeded.
- StatusCake Pages — Keep customers informed with a public status page during incidents.
