Is anyone else frustrated with the lack of information that the Office 365 admin center dashboard provides?
When I was at MS Ignite my tenant and 90,000 others where down and the dashboard lists it as a “Customer impact appears to be limited at this time” – “Affected users (who are these affected users?) may be intermittently unable to access SP online sites” – “A few customers are reporting that they are experiencing this issue” Is 90,000 tenants really that limited in Microsoft eyes? The same message was repeated each hour until 3 hours later they spun up a different location and gave you read only access. Full service was finally restored 3 hours later. I understand there will be issue but there has to be a better way to inform tenants about service interruptions and issues. Currently to my knowledge you can not setup anyway to be notified if your tenant is affected.
Incident #SP22106
Here has to be a better way to inform tenants. An email or text message would be nice.
End of rant.
Thoughts?
Thanks for the info. It’s pretty sad that I have to have yet another tool to monitor something that Microsoft should be doing in the first place.
