User reports often detect issues before official status pages acknowledge them.
Learn how crowdsourced monitoring
combined with official status pages provides faster outage detection than
relying on either approach alone.

Why use IsDown to monitor Epic Games instead of the official status page?
Because IsDown is a status page aggregator, which means that we aggregate the status of multiple cloud services. You can monitor Epic Games and all the services that impact your business. Get a dashboard with the health of all services and status updates. 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 Epic Games?
IsDown and DownDetector help users determine if Epic Games 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 instead of just relying on reports from users. The integration allows us to provide more details about Epic Games'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.
