StatsD vs Fyipe: What are the differences?

StatsD: Simple daemon for easy stats aggregation. StatsD is a front-end proxy for the Graphite/Carbon metrics server, originally written by Etsy's Erik Kastner. StatsD is a network daemon that runs on the Node.js platform and listens for statistics, like counters and timers, sent over UDP and sends aggregates to one or more pluggable backend services (e.g., Graphite); Fyipe: Status Page, Monitoring and On Call made simple. It monitors your website, dashboards, API's, and more and alerts your team when downtime happens. We also give you a Status Page which keeps your customers looped in and improves transparency.

StatsD and Fyipe can be primarily classified as "Monitoring" tools.

Some of the features offered by StatsD are:

buckets: Each stat is in its own "bucket". They are not predefined anywhere. Buckets can be named anything that will translate to Graphite (periods make folders, etc)
values: Each stat will have a value. How it is interpreted depends on modifiers. In general values should be integer.
flush: After the flush interval timeout (defined by config.flushInterval, default 10 seconds), stats are aggregated and sent to an upstream backend service.

On the other hand, Fyipe provides the following key features:

Status Page
On Call
Alerts

StatsD is an open source tool with 15K GitHub stars and 1.9K GitHub forks. Here's a link to StatsD's open source repository on GitHub.
