How IsDown compares to DownDetector?

IsDown and DownDetector help users determine if a service is having problems. The big difference is that IsDown is a status page aggregator. IsDown monitors a service's official status page to give our customers a more reliable source of information. The integration allows us to provide more details about the outage, like incident title, description, updates, and the parts of the affected service. Additionally, users can create internal status pages and set up notifications for all their third-party services.

Very happy with isDown. Setting up and managing the monitoring is straightforward. The customer support team has been excellent, always quick to answer questions and provide assistance.
I definitely recommend IsDown.
