About Our Skype Status Page Integration

Skype is a Chat and Communications solution that StatusGator has been monitoring since January 2017. Over the past about 7 years, we have collected data on on more than 106 outages that affected Skype users. When Skype publishes downtime on their status page, they do so across 10 components using 3 different statuses: up, warn, and down which we use to provide granular uptime metrics and notifications.

More than 100 StatusGator users monitor Skype to get notified when it's down or has an outage. This makes it one of the most popular chat services monitored on our platform. We've sent more than 900 notifications to our users about Skype incidents, providing transparency and peace of mind. You can get alerts by signing up for a free StatusGator account.

If Skype 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 Skype 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.

Skype does not post separate notifications for planned maintenance work so we are unable to send notifications when maintenance windows begin. If you need Skype maintenance notifications, please email us.

Skype does not publish a feed of proactive maintenance events on their status page at this time. If they do, be sure to let us know and we'll aggregate Skype maintenance events into your unified calendar.

At this time, we do not collect status messages from the Skype status page. If you need this capability, please be sure to reach out.

At this time, we do not collect detailed status updates from the Skype status page. If you need this capability, please be sure to reach out.

Because Skype has several components, each with their individual statuses, StatusGator can differentiate the status of each component in our notifications to you. 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.
