About MicrosoftRadar

MicrosoftRadar shows what is wrong with Microsoft services right now, and keeps the record of how Microsoft described it as the story changed.

Why it exists

When a Microsoft service fails, the official page shows one text, and that text is rewritten as the incident goes on. Hours later the earlier wording is gone. We save each version, so you can see how the cause, the scope and the promised update times moved.
