How IsDown compares to DownDetector when monitoring Kickstarter?

IsDown and DownDetector help users determine if Kickstarter 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 Kickstarter'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.

How IsDown works?

  1. IsDown monitors official status pages

    We check the status of the services you're monitoring every few minutes. We aggregate the status and outage information and normalize it. We also collect crowdsourced information to provide early warning signs.

  2. We notify you when there is an outage

    We send you an alert whenever we detect a new incident or an update on the status of the services you're monitoring. You can customize the alerts to your needs to avoid alert fatigue.

  3. Dedicated dashboard and integrations

    Aggregate all the status information in a straightforward dashboard or internal status page. You can also send the information and alerts to your team's communication/monitoring/incident management tools, such as Slack, Datadog, Microsoft Teams, PagerDuty, and more.
