February may be behind us, but we’ve got some great updates to share! Here’s a quick recap of what’s new at StatusGator to improve your monitoring experience.

Service disruptions can happen at any time, affecting communication, productivity, and access to critical platforms. In February, several major services experienced outages, causing frustration for users worldwide. With its Early Warning Signals feature, StatusGator detected these issues in real time—often before official acknowledgments—helping users stay informed and prepared. Here are five notable outages from the past month.

Maintaining uptime and reliability becomes crucial as more businesses move to the cloud. While platforms like AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud offer flexibility and cost-effectiveness, they also introduce risks that can disrupt critical services. Recent events show how fragile cloud infrastructure can be. On July 19, 2024, a routine cybersecurity update caused a global internet outage. Beyond large-scale incidents, human error remains a leading cause of downtime in IT and data centers.

In 2025, tech teams, such as IT departments, DevOps engineers, SREs, and SaaS providers heavily rely and increase expenses on cloud services, APIs, and third-party tools to keep operations running smoothly. Many organizations manage dozens of critical platforms, from AWS and Google Cloud to collaboration tools like Slack and project management software like Jira. With this complexity, IT teams often face an overwhelming number of support tickets.

We’re thrilled to announce a major milestone: StatusGator now monitors more than 5,000 services! Whether you rely on cloud platforms, SaaS tools, developer APIs, or infrastructure providers, we’ve got you covered. Our extensive service coverage means you can track the status of all your critical dependencies in one place, reducing downtime surprises and keeping your team informed.

Reliance on cloud services for infrastructure, collaboration, and seamless operations continues to grow. With organizations investing heavily in cloud infrastructure, Statista projects that the global public cloud computing market will reach $127 billion. As a result monitoring solutions have become indispensable. A well-monitored cloud environment helps reduce downtime, prevent revenue loss, and ensure smooth business operations.

We’re excited to introduce a new feature that gives you greater control over how and when you receive alerts from your website and ping monitors. With Alert sensitivity, you can now specify the number of retries before an alert is triggered, reducing false alarms and ensuring more reliable notifications.
