ThousandEyes Internet Outages Map compared with Downdetector and Catchpoint
ThousandEyes Internet Outages Map	Downdetector	Catchpoint
Data source: Measurements from ThousandEyes agents, described as billions per day, covering network interfaces and application servers. The map refreshes every 5 minutes.	Data source: Based on outage reports submitted by users on each service page and on Twitter, according to the reference article. The map shows report locations by city and count.	Data source: Synthetic tests from public agents on backbone, last-mile, wireless, cloud and edge networks, plus real user monitoring, BGP data and endpoint telemetry. Private enterprise agents run as physical or virtual Linux appliances.
Scope of coverage: Network outages across ISPs, public clouds and edge services such as CDNs, DNS and SECaaS, and about 124 SaaS applications. Only reachability outages are shown, not slow performance or broken features inside an application.	Scope of coverage: Operates in 45 countries, each with its own site, and tracks over 12,000 services according to the reference article.	Scope of coverage: Monitors targets you configure: websites, applications, APIs, and internal and external networks, with over 50 test types.
Detection thresholds: An application counts as down when several global vantage points get no response within 5 seconds or receive an error. Outages under five minutes are not shown, and application outages affecting fewer than five servers are also excluded.
Access and deployment: Public web page with no setup. The paid Internet Insights subscription adds outages the map omits, causes of application outages, alerts and a larger catalogue of applications and networks.		Access and deployment: Delivered as a SaaS platform. Its agent network is independent of the cloud providers it monitors, so it keeps measuring during their outages. The solution brief lists no prices.
