How often does Cloudways go down?

How are outages detected?

Pulsetic follows the official status page and records the incidents the provider posts there. Crowdsourced user reports and Pulsetic's own synthetic checks add an early warning, which can surface an issue before the official status page mentions it.

Is it down for everyone or just me?

The outage map and region breakdown help answer this. If reports are concentrated in one area it may be regional; if hotspots appear globally it's a widespread outage. Submit your own report to help others understand the scope.

What does "never acknowledged" mean?

"Never acknowledged" means Pulsetic recorded a service disruption from user reports and its own checks, but the official status page never posted an incident for it. This is one of the core reasons teams use third-party monitoring alongside official status pages.

Degradation Impacting Vultr Server Operations

Started 5 days ago · Oct 1, 2026 · 6:50 AM UTC

We are currently investigating an issue impacting upstream API requests to Vultr. As a result, server management operations involving Vultr instances including launching new servers, cloning existing servers, and executing reboots may time out or fail. Active, running Vultr servers and hosted applications are unaffected and operating normally, as only administrative management actions are impacted. Our team is actively monitoring the upstream response, and we will provide another update as soon as more information becomes available.
