Thanks! We understand that it's important for monitoring and status page's to be distributed, and separate from your infrastructure. That said, our application is designed to be highly-available at all levels. With our enterprise plan, we are capable of hosting on different infrastructure.

The design customization allows uploading brand images, and gives full CSS customization as well as custom HTML. More about the customization can be found in our knowledge base here: https://hund.io/help/documentation/customization. We also plan on providing support for "page fixtures" to allow rearranging and changing how the information on the page is presented. You can see a little more on them in our roadmap here: https://trello.com/c/HeHVXFkQ/84-page-fixtures

Most of the fonts loaded are variations of Open Sans, which are used throughout the pages. We'll look into improving the degradation when the icon font loads; it's just the Octicon font set. Thanks for pointing this out.

Thanks! The recent history is populated by automated status changes (i.e. outages and degradations) and manually created issues. Status changes are automated via watchdogs, which support a variety of integrations, including our own built-in monitoring solution that provides both the statuses and metrics you see here. For an example, take a look at https://status.sherlock.stanford.edu.
