Need to know when vendors go down? You’re in the right place
IsDown pulls data from Substack's status page every few minutes. Refresh the page every few minutes to see if there are any updates.
This chart displays the number of user-reported issues over the past 24 hours, grouped into 20-minute intervals. It's normal to see occasional reports, which may be due to individual user issues rather than a broader problem. We only consider an issue widespread if there are multiple reports within a short timeframe.

Get instant alerts when your cloud vendors experience downtime. Create an internal status page to keep your team in the loop and minimize the impact of service disruptions.
IsDown offers an easy way to monitor Substack with maximum flexibility
IsDown monitors Substack for major outages. A major outage is when Substack experiences a critical issue that severely affects one or more services/regions. When Substack marks an incident as a major outage, IsDown updates its internal status, the customer status page and dashboard. Depending on the customer settings, IsDown will also send notifications.
IsDown monitors Substack status page for minor outages. A minor outage is when Substack experiences a small issue affecting a small percentage of its customer's applications. An example is the performance degradation of an application. When a minor outage occurs, IsDown updates its internal status and shares that information on the customer status page. Depending on the customer settings, IsDown will also send notifications.
IsDown collects all information from the outages published in Substack status page to provide the most accurate information. 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.
Substack publishes scheduled maintenance events on their status page. IsDown collects all the information for each event and creates a feed that people can follow to ensure they are not surprised by unexpected downtime or problems. We also send the feed in our weekly report, alerting the next maintenances that will take place.
IsDown monitors Substack and all their 5 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.
Substack and other vendors don’t always report outages on time. Our crowdsourced status platform helps you stay ahead of outages. Users report issues and outages, sharing details on what problems they are facing. We use that info to provide early signs of outages. This way, even without an official update, you can stay ahead of possible problems.
Substack isn't down. You can check Substack status and incident details on the top of the page. IsDown continuously monitors Substack official status page every few minutes. In the last 24 hours, there were 0 outages reported.
Substack is currently operational. You can check Substack status and incident details on the top of the page. The status is updated in almost real-time, and you can see the latest outages and issues affecting customers.
No, there is no ongoing official outage. Check on the top of the page if there are any reported problems by other users.
Currently there's no report of Substack being slow. Check on the top of the page if there are any reported problems by other users.
IsDown monitors the Substack official status page every few minutes. We also get reports from users like you. If there are enough reports about an outage, we'll show it on the top of the page.
Substack last outage was on December 19, 2024 with the title "We are investigating an issue where stats are delayed across the platform."
Because IsDown is a status page aggregator, which means that we aggregate the status of multiple cloud services. You can monitor Substack 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.
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.
The data and notifications you need, in the tools you already use.
How much time you'll save your team, by having the outages information close to them?
