Set up notifications via Slack, Datadog, PagerDuty, and more, when a service you monitor has issues or when maintenances are scheduled.

How IsDown compares to DownDetector when monitoring Shorthand?

IsDown and DownDetector help users determine if Shorthand is having problems. The big difference is that IsDown is a status page aggregator.

The integration allows us to provide more details about Shorthand's Outages, 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.
