Start monitoring for freeHelpScout (Customer support platform with shared inbox, help center, and live chat) is a a Communications, CRM, IT, and Project Management solution that StatusGator has been monitoring since March 2021. Over the past almost 4 years, we have collected data on on more than 230 outages that affected HelpScout users. When HelpScout publishes downtime on their status page, they do so across 7 components using 4 different statuses: up, warn, down, and maintenance which we use to provide granular uptime metrics and notifications.
If you're wondering, "Is HelpScout down?", or need to know its current status, we've got you covered. Our platform tracks every reported outage, performance issue, and maintenance window to ensure you're informed. Whether HelpScout is experiencing a problem now or has recently resolved one, our detailed history keeps you updated.
Many StatusGator users monitor HelpScout to get notified when it's down, is under maintenance, or has an outage. We've sent more than 600 notifications to our users about HelpScout incidents, providing transparency and peace of mind. You can get alerts by signing up for a free StatusGator account.
If we detect a potential HelpScout outage or other issue before it was reported on the official status page we will send an Early Warning Signal notification to StatusGator subscribers. We can often detect issues before they are officially acknowledged by the provider, giving you a head start on resolving any potential problems.
If HelpScout is having system outages or experiencing other critical issues, red down notifications appear on the status page. In most cases, it means that core functions are not working properly, or there is some other serious customer-impacting event underway.
Warn notifications are used when HelpScout is undergoing a non-critical issue like minor service issues, performance degradation, non-core bugs, capacity issues, or problems affecting a small number of users.
HelpScout posts separate notifications for planned maintenance work. StatusGator will notify subscribers when HelpScout enters a pre-planned maintenance window, keeping you up to date.
When HelpScout posts issues on their status page, we collect the main headline message and include that brief information or overview in notifications to StatusGator subscribers.
When HelpScout has outages or other service-impacting events on their status page, we pull down the detailed informational updates and include them in notifications. These messages often include the current details about how the problem is being mitigated, or when the next update will occur.
Because HelpScout has several components, each with their individual statuses, StatusGator can differentiate the status of each component in our notifications to you whenever a particular component is down. This means, you can filter your status page notifications based on the services, regions, or components you utilize. This is an essential feature for complex services with many components or services spread out across many regions.
