HelpScout status history
Current state: operational — “All Systems Operational” per https://status.helpscout.com (Atlassian Statuspage), checked 2026-09-16 12:28 UTC.
How long do HelpScout incidents last?
From 45 incidents with a vendor-posted start and resolve time. Longest on record: Folder and View Issues — 23.7 h (2026-03-21 16:39 UTC). Excluded, never estimated: nothing. Duration is the gap between the vendor's own posted timestamps — it is not measured downtime, uptime or an SLA figure, and a vendor that posts every blip will look worse here than one that posts nothing. Same rule as the outage-duration dataset.
