Is it down, or is it us?
The Down Dashboard shows your staff, on one page, whether the services your school depends on are working, read from each vendor’s own status page. Staff check it first, before anyone files a ticket.

How it works
Pick your services
Choose the services your school uses, such as PowerSchool, Google Workspace and Clever.
Share one link
Send it to your staff, or print a poster with a QR code for the staff room.
Check it first
When something stops working, everyone looks at the same page before calling for help.
What you get, free
Status from the source
Each service’s status comes from the vendor’s own status page, checked every few minutes.
Honest when we don’t know
If we can’t read a vendor’s status, your dashboard says “unknown.” It never shows a green light we can’t back up.
Is it us or them?
One click checks a service from our servers and from your browser at the same moment, so you can tell a vendor outage from a problem on your own network.
Reports from people who checked
Staff can say whether a service is working for them. Reports are shown as evidence, never as the service’s status.
Connected services
When a service yours depends on, such as a sign-in provider, is having trouble, your dashboard says so.
Feeds, a widget and a badge
Every dashboard comes with a status feed, an RSS feed, an embeddable widget and a badge.
Seen by link only
Anyone with your dashboard’s link can see it. It is not listed anywhere or shown to search engines unless you choose.
