Generally our users are in the same time zone, so we can easily
restart services after office hours. Other times we post notice that
the system will be down for a bit.

I see these kind of tools as a last resort. Ideally our development
process would catch all bugs before release,. Failing that (and it
will fail) we'd have sufficient logging that we could replay
interactions, and a dev. environment we could debug in, rather than
using the live site. We aren't there yet, but it's the goal.
