Start freeFrequently Asked Questions
Does Opsgenie include its own monitoring?
Opsgenie only provides heartbeat monitoring. For full HTTP/HTTPS uptime monitoring, you still need a separate tool. HowlOps includes both HTTP and heartbeat monitoring out of the box.
Does Opsgenie have status pages?
No. Opsgenie does not offer public status pages. HowlOps includes white-label status pages with component groups and incident history on all paid plans.
Is HowlOps a good Opsgenie alternative for EU companies?
Yes. HowlOps stores all data in the EU, making GDPR compliance straightforward. Opsgenie (Atlassian) does not offer dedicated EU data residency on standard plans.
