Atlassian Acquires Status and Incident Communication Platform StatusPage
July 14 2016 - 4:30PM
Atlassian Corporation Plc (NASDAQ:TEAM), a leading provider of
team collaboration and productivity software, today announced the
acquisition of StatusPage, a fast-growing status and incident
communication platform that enables companies to share real-time
status for cloud services with external customers and internal
employees.
StatusPage provides hosted public and private status pages to
communicate with customers and employees around downtime, scheduled
maintenance and service performance. End users can subscribe to
real-time SMS and email updates, keeping them informed, while
lowering support costs for providers. Additionally, StatusPage
enables companies to embed status information within their own
applications, display performance metrics and create communication
templates for specific incidents. Companies and organizations using
StatusPage to keep customers and employees up to date on the health
of technology services range from popular startups to market
leaders, including Twilio, Intuit, Global Healthcare Exchange
(GHX), Fastly, Reddit, Georgia Institute of Technology and Vox
Media.
"In today's cloud world, you don't just release software, you
deliver it as a service, and are responsible for uptime,
performance, stability; essentially the end-to-end experience for
the customer. This includes communicating product status to
customers in a timely and transparent manner," said Jay Simons,
president of Atlassian. “The StatusPage team has built an
incredible platform that is a natural extension of the software
development and IT operations processes where Atlassian is a
leader. Adding StatusPage will enhance Atlassian’s product offering
so we can continue helping teams ship and operate great
software.”
"A single technology service going down can affect
thousands of companies and millions of end users. Keeping
customers up to date on the status of cloud services builds trust,
reduces support costs and helps deliver a better customer
experience," said Scott Klein, CEO and co-founder of StatusPage.
“Joining Atlassian will help us to achieve our mission of bridging
the communication gap between service providers and their
customers, while integrating across the Atlassian stack to build
the best status communication tools for software, IT, and support
teams."
StatusPage will continue to provide its standalone service
offering and maintain its commitment to delivering trust and
transparency for cloud services. Additionally, Atlassian plans to
accelerate StatusPage’s offering with future integrations across
Atlassian’s collaboration stack.
Financial terms of the transaction were not disclosed. The
acquisition is not expected to have a material impact on
Atlassian’s financial results in fiscal 2017.
