One of our primary goals at PromoSimple is to provide a service that our partners can rely upon. We are passionate about ensuring that your entry forms load quickly and are always available for your users to enter. For this reason we have decided to post our up-time reports here on our blog.

In October we saw a spike in downtimes for PromoSimple entry forms due to issues with our hosting provider, Amazon Web Services. Some of Amazon’s other clients, including Reddit, Pinterest, FourSquare and Airbnb were impacted by this service disruption. We are proactively taking the necessary steps to prevent these service interruptions in the future.
For monitoring these statistics we use Pingdom, a service that focuses on testing our forms’ response times from locations around the world. The data shown here is taken directly from these Pingdom reports.
