Uptimely is not affiliated with Gusto; incident text is Gusto’s own. ## Is it down for you, or for everyone? A status page shows what the vendor has confirmed, which often lags what users see. [Run a live check of gusto.com](https://getuptimely.com/is-it-down/gusto.com) to see whether it answers right now. ## Get alerted when Gusto has an incident Uptimely’s External Status Page monitor watches Gusto’s status page and alerts your team by email, SMS, phone call, Slack, Discord or browser push when it reports a problem, next to the monitors for your own services.

The status at the top of this page is Gusto's own, read from its public status page every couple of minutes. It shows what Gusto's team has confirmed. For an independent check of whether gusto.com answers right now, use the live check on the is-it-down page. ### Where is Gusto's official status page? Gusto publishes its status at https://status.gusto.com. This page shows the same data with the recent incident history in one place, and links each incident to Gusto's own write-up. ### Why does Gusto not work for me when its status says operational? A status page lists the incidents a vendor has confirmed, and confirmation takes time: problems often reach users minutes before they reach the status page, and some partial or regional problems never appear on it. Your own network, account or region can also be the cause. ### How can I get alerted when Gusto has an incident? Add an External Status Page monitor in Uptimely pointed at https://status.gusto.com. It reads the page on a schedule and alerts your team by email, SMS, phone call, Slack, Discord or browser push when Gusto reports a problem, beside the monitors for your own services.
