Is Slack down right now?
Live status check for Slack (slack.com) - updated every time you load this page.
Is Slack down for everyone or just me?
This page checks Slack (slack.com) directly from our servers, separate from your own network, ISP, and device. If the status above shows "Down", Slack is experiencing a real outage or server problem and it isn't something wrong with your connection. If it shows "Up" but Slack still won't load, isn't working, or feels broken for you specifically, the issue is more likely local - your wifi, DNS, a VPN, a browser extension, or a firewall between you and Slack's servers.
People search "is slack down", "slack down detector", "slack not working", "slack server status", and "slack outage" whenever slack.com suddenly stops responding. This checker answers that question with a live request, not user reports or social media chatter, so you get a direct answer on whether Slack is actually down right now.
Want to know the moment Slack - or any site you rely on - goes down, instead of checking manually? Kawze lets you set up an uptime monitor with a custom check interval as fast as 10 seconds, and sends instant email or SMS alerts the second a monitor detects downtime. Unlike this one-off check, a Kawze monitor watches your chosen URL continuously and notifies your whole team automatically - no per-seat charges, on every plan including the free tier.
Frequently asked questions
Is Slack down right now?
Check the live status widget above - it reflects a check made from our servers moments ago. Refresh it for an up-to-date answer at any time.
Why is Slack not working for me but this page says it's up?
An "Up" result means our servers received a normal response from slack.com. If Slack still isn't working for you, try clearing your browser cache, restarting your router, checking a different network, or waiting a few minutes - the problem is more likely local to your device or ISP than a Slack-wide outage.
How do I get alerted if Slack goes down again?
This page is a one-off check, not a monitor. To get automatic email or SMS alerts the moment Slack (or any site you depend on) goes down, set up a free Kawze monitor - it checks on a schedule you choose and notifies you the instant it detects downtime.
