    We're investigating reports of slow performance and timeouts on the Cloud Help Desk. We've confirmed this is a system-side issue and are working on a fix. Updates to follow.

  2. monitoring Apr 28, 2026, 07:07 PM UTC

    We have successfully stabilized the Cloud Help Desk. Our teams will be monitoring for any further issues and investigating the root cause. Please submit a ticket via [email protected] if you still encounter excessive latency or timeouts.

  3. resolved Apr 30, 2026, 06:03 PM UTC

    We have seen no further reports of latency or timeouts, and our internal testing confirms that performance remains stable. We are now officially marking this incident as Resolved. Root Cause: The issue was triggered by a high-volume surge of API requests from a third-party data tool. This created an unexpected load on our database, specifically impacting the ticket queue and reporting sections. Prevention: To prevent a recurrence, we have implemented new traffic controls and rate-limiting measures. We will continue to monitor these systems to ensure long-term stability. If you are still experiencing any issues, please let our team know at [email protected].

    We have monitored the system and confirmed that notification delivery has returned to normal. As a result, we are marking this issue resolved. Note on Duplicates: Because of the way our retry logic handled the initial delays, some users may receive 1-2 duplicate notifications for older tickets. We appreciate your patience with this temporary "noise". If you continue to experience new delays, please contact us at [email protected] so we can investigate further.

  1. investigating Mar 20, 2025, 01:57 PM UTC

    While trying to improve deliverability of these emails, we wanted to communicate two things to folks which may help. 1. If you are stuck with a locked account from retrying codes or getting MFA emails in the wrong order, doing a password reset from our login page and changing your password will also unlock the account. This will save you waiting on support to unlock your account. 2. If you use Mimecast, its "greylisting" feature may be delaying these new MFA emails. More on that here https://community.spiceworks.com/t/cloud-help-desk-release-notes-mar-19-2025-mfa-for-cloud-help-desk-employee-accounts-is-here/1186674/14?u=craig-spiceworks

    We're seeing lower ticket volumes today and it appears email filters are getting "used" to the new emails. If you are still having issues, let us know at [email protected]

This impacts all agents for the Inventory online and Connectivity Dashboard products. Viewing device information in Inventory online is unaffected, but new information is delayed.

    Agent updates are now flowing through normally. No action should be necessary on devices running the agent. Agents automatically retry on a set interval, so any failed attempts to push data will simply resend. You should see Connectivity Dashboard stats for online devices, now. Inventory online data updates should recover on the normal refresh interval.
