// EDITOR'S TAKE

Kener gets closest to Instatus's polish, with a good-looking page, maintenance windows and monitors defined in one config file. Statusnook is the simplest thing to run if you want a single small binary, Cachet is the more conventional and longer-established choice, and OpenStatus is the one to pick when you need checks from multiple regions behind the page.
