openstatus reposted this
When we started openstatus, we had a naive assumption: "Companies want to be 100% transparent about their uptime and incidents." The reality? Politics. We quickly realized that behind every status page, there are tough conversations happening. 👉 Legal is worried about SLA payouts. 👉 Sales is worried about reputation. 👉 Management is worried about "looking bad." Sometimes, total automation is too risky for the business side of things. We realized we couldn't just build for engineers; we had to build for the business reality, too. That’s why we are launching Static Components. This gives you full control over what you display, allowing you to manage the narrative while still keeping users informed. It’s the bridge between total opacity and radical transparency. 🔗 Link bellow 🔗
