About Slack Status and Outage Monitoring

IsDown has monitored Slack continuously since April 2020, tracking this Team Collaboration for 6 years. Over that time, we've documented 611 outages and incidents, averaging 8.9 per month. When Slack goes down, incidents typically resolve within 399 minutes based on historical data.

We monitor Slack's official status page across 11 components. IsDown interprets Slack statuses (operational and incident) to deliver precise health metrics and filter alerts by the components you actually use.

When Slack is down, IsDown combines official status data with user reports for early detection. Vendors often delay acknowledging problems, so user reports help us alert you before the official announcement.

Engineering and operations teams rely on IsDown to track Slack status and receive verified outage alerts through Slack, Teams, PagerDuty, or 20+ other integrations.

How IsDown Monitors Slack

IsDown checks Slack's status page every few minutes, across all 11 components. We combine official status data with user reports to detect when Slack is down, often before the vendor announces it.

When Slack status changes, IsDown sends alerts to your preferred channels. Filter by severity to skip noise and focus on outages that affect your business.

What you get when monitoring Slack with IsDown

Track Slack incidents and downtimes by severity

IsDown checks Slack official status page for major/minor outages or downtimes. A major outage is when Slack experiences a critical issue that severely affects one or more services/regions. A minor incident is when Slack experiences a small issue affecting a small percentage of its customer's applications. An example is the performance degradation of an application. The moment we detect a Slack outage, we send you an alert and update your dashboard and status page.

Get alerted as soon as users report problems with Slack

Slack and other vendors don't always report outages on time. IsDown collects user reports to provide early detection of outages. This way, even without an official status update, you can stay ahead of possible problems.

All the details of Slack outages and downtimes

IsDown collects all information from the outages published in Slack status page to provide the context of the outage. If available, we gather the title, description, time of the outage, status, and outage updates. Another important piece of information is the affected services/regions which we use to filter the notifications that impact your business.

Only get alerted on the Slack outages that impact your business

IsDown monitors Slack and all their 11 components that can be affected by an outage. IsDown allows you to filter the notifications and status page alerts based on the components you care about. For example, you can choose which components or regions affect your business and filter out all other outages. This way you avoid alert fatigue in your team.

How to check if Slack is down?

Why use IsDown to monitor Slack 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 Slack 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 Slack?

IsDown and DownDetector help users determine if Slack 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 Slack'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.
