The page goes to engineers. The update goes to everyone affected.
Compose once, push to phones
An admin writes a title and message, picks a severity — Info, Maintenance, or Incident — tags the affected services, and sends. OpsPing pushes it straight to stakeholders' phones and pins it at the top of the mobile Status tab. The composer shows the live reach — "Will push to N stakeholders" — before you commit.
Free stakeholder seats
Stakeholders are a free, read-only tier: they get the Status dashboard — incidents, service health, maintenance, announcements — and nothing else. No paging tabs, no alert payloads, and the API refuses to put them on a rotation or escalation path. Invite with a shareable link, and they sign in with your existing SSO.
Maintenance announces itself
When a scheduled maintenance window starts, OpsPing automatically pushes a "[Maintenance]" announcement to every stakeholder — no one has to remember to send the "we're deploying now" message.
Incidents keep them posted
Declaring an incident — and each status change from investigating to resolved — notifies stakeholders automatically. Support hears about the outage from you, not from angry customers.
Why it matters
Every on-call tool pages engineers; that's table stakes. The gap shows up during the incident itself: while responders work the alert, everyone else — the support team watching tickets pile up, the PM whose launch is blocked, the downstream service owner seeing errors — is refreshing a chat channel waiting for someone to type an update. The usual fix is a second product: a status-page subscription, a comms tool, a human relaying screenshots.
OpsPing closes that gap in the same tool that paged the responder. Stakeholders get awareness without ops access and without ever being paged; responders get left alone to work. Quiet hours still apply to stakeholder pushes — an announcement informs, it never wakes anyone up. It's the difference between a pager and an operational communication platform.
