QUEUE-IT FOR WEBSITE MAINTENANCE

Maintain communication & control during site maintenance

Replace your static, dull maintenance page with an engaging waiting room that enables real-time customer communication & controlled access

Take your website down without leaving customers in the dark

Keep visitors informed during downtime

  • Automatically redirect visitors to a fully customizable waiting room during scheduled maintenance or unexpected outages
  • Share real-time updates, ETAs, and status changes with every visitor at once—without the need for manual refreshing
  • Reduce support requests & complaints by proactively answering questions & regularly updating visitors

Keep visitors engaged & ready to return

  • Tailor the page to match your brand & engage visitors with embedded content like videos, quizzes, or games
  • Allow users to be notified when service is restored with the email notification feature
  • Alert visitors with a customizable sound that plays when it’s their turn to be redirected to the site

Restore service with confidence & control

  • Allow internal staff to bypass the queue to test your site before you open it to the public
  • Control traffic flow when you re-open to prevent post-maintenance overload
  • Ensure a fair reopening process with first-in-first-out access for visitors waiting in line
