Question 1

Is Buddy down right now?

Accepted Answer

No, Buddy is operational. All systems are functioning normally with no reported issues. Last checked Sep 7, 2026 7:19 AM UTC from Buddy's official status page. Statusfield monitors 2 components in real-time to provide instant alerts when Buddy experiences downtime.

Question 2

How do I get notified when Buddy goes down?

Accepted Answer

Create a free Statusfield account and subscribe to Buddy monitoring. You'll receive instant notifications via email, Slack, or webhook when Buddy experiences any service disruption. Notifications are sent within seconds of detecting status changes across all 2 Buddy components.

Question 3

Why not just subscribe to Buddy's status page?

Accepted Answer

Buddy's own subscribe button sends you every notice it publishes, at one priority, to one inbox — maintenance windows and major outages alike, across all 2 components. Statusfield lets you subscribe to only the components you depend on, and route each severity to a different place: a major outage to PagerDuty, degraded performance to Slack, maintenance to nowhere. It also keeps one dashboard for every vendor you depend on instead of one subscription per vendor, and records every status change and every alert it sent — useful when an auditor asks how you monitor third-party providers.

Question 4

What do Buddy status levels mean?

Accepted Answer

Buddy status levels indicate service health: Operational (all systems working normally), Degraded Performance (reduced functionality), Partial Outage (some components affected), Major Outage (significant service disruption), and Under Maintenance (scheduled maintenance). Statusfield tracks these statuses across 2 components to provide granular monitoring.

Question 5

What should I do when Buddy is down?

Accepted Answer

When Buddy is down: 1) Check Statusfield for affected components and estimated resolution time, 2) Review your application's Buddy integration for fallback mechanisms, 3) Monitor the status page for updates, 4) Subscribe to Statusfield alerts to receive instant notifications when service is restored. Most Buddy outages are resolved within minutes to hours.

Question 6

Has Buddy been down today?

Accepted Answer

Check the status timeline above to see Buddy's uptime history for the last 30 days. The timeline shows all incidents, outages, and maintenance windows. Buddy has been operational today with no reported issues.

Question 7

Why is Buddy not working for me?

Accepted Answer

If Buddy isn't working: 1) Check Statusfield to confirm if there's a service-wide outage, 2) Verify your internet connection, 3) Clear your browser cache and cookies, 4) Try accessing Buddy from a different network or device, 5) Check Buddy's official status page for regional issues. If Buddy shows operational but you're still experiencing issues, the problem may be local to your account or network.

Question 8

Is Buddy down for everyone or just me?

Accepted Answer

Statusfield monitors Buddy from multiple global locations and tracks 2 components in real-time. If Buddy shows as operational on Statusfield but you're experiencing issues, the problem is likely specific to your location, account, or network. Service-wide outages are immediately reflected in our monitoring dashboard.

Question 9

How can I reduce alert fatigue from Buddy status emails?

Accepted Answer

Instead of subscribing to Buddy's status page emails alongside dozens of other services, use Statusfield to consolidate all your dependencies into one dashboard. You choose exactly which Buddy components to monitor, route alerts to your preferred channels (email, Slack, Discord, webhooks), and filter out scheduled maintenance. Most teams report 80%+ reduction in monitoring noise.

Setting up Buddy monitoring takes under 30 seconds: 1) Create a free Statusfield account — no credit card required. 2) Search for "Buddy" in the service catalog and click "Monitor" to add it to your dashboard. 3) Configure your notification preferences — choose from email, Slack, Discord, webhooks, or RSS feeds to receive instant alerts when Buddy experiences any status change.
