Bamboo HR Taken OfflineResolved Oct 21, 2026 · 1h 59mResolved

BambooHR has brought their services back online. Future syncs will resolve without issue. --- [2026-10-21T10:06:56.762-06:00] (monitoring) https://status.bamboohr.com/pages/incident/54f0de009d6f51e7140002b7/6ad897f670d2d304e082ebdb BambooHR had taken their platform offline at October 21, 2026 10:46AM UTC. This only affects clients that use BambooHR as their user integration and sync. Current user data is not affected and would only generate errors when the next sync occurs if BambooHR is still offline at that time. The rest of the Kudos platform remains up and operational. At the time of this post they are in the process of testing fixes that address the PHP2Shell vulnerability that was identified. Kudos will continue to monitor and provide an update when BambooHR has restored their service.

Upcoming maintenance

Announced by Kudos. Planned work, not an outage.

GRS/CarltonOne maintenance Nov 16 2026Scheduled for Nov 16, 2026 · 3h 0mScheduled

Kudos provider GRS will be undergoing maintenance at the schedule time. The main Kudos platforms will remain active, but there will be an interruption with GRS redemptions. This is the communication provided: As part of CarltonOne's ongoing investment in platform reliability, scalability, and security, we will be completing the final migration of our systems infrastructure to Amazon Web Services (AWS) on Monday, November 16. To complete the work effectively, the platform will be unavailable to members during the planned maintenance window from 6:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. EST. If there is any anticipated impact to integrations or customizations, your Client Success team will be reaching out.

About Kudos

Is Kudos down? Its official status page at status.kudos.com reports on 6 components, including Kudos Integrations, Kudos Service and Kudos (CA Central). PulsAPI checks it every few minutes and can alert you when Kudos reports an incident.

Kudos Status FAQ

Is Kudos down right now?

The verdict at the top of this page comes from the latest poll of the official Kudos status feed and refreshes automatically, so you are not looking at a stale cached answer. PulsAPI re-checks it every 60 seconds.

What should I do if Kudos is not working?

Check the component list on this page first to see if your failure matches a known outage. If it does, you can report the issue for other engineers, follow the incident timeline for vendor updates, and run any fallback your app supports until Kudos recovers.

How do I check Kudos uptime history?

PulsAPI tracks Kudos uptime over 30, 60, and 90-day rolling windows. The current 30-day uptime is not published yet, because a 30-day figure needs 30 days of tracked history. The 90-day uptime strip on this page is public: no account needed. A free account adds alerts whenever Kudos changes state, plus 15 days of incident detail; Pro extends that to 90 days and Business to 13 months.

How fast does PulsAPI detect Kudos outages?

PulsAPI reads the official Kudos status page. PulsAPI re-checks it every 60 seconds. Alerts reach Slack, Discord, Microsoft Teams, PagerDuty, or email once a change has held for 5 minutes, so a one-minute blip does not page you.

Does PulsAPI track individual Kudos components?

Yes. PulsAPI monitors 6 individual Kudos components, so you can see which service or region is affected instead of a generic "service degraded" banner.

Can I get alerts when Kudos goes down?

Yes. Create a free account and subscribe to Kudos: the free plan covers three services with unlimited email alerts and no monthly notification cap. Paid plans lift the monitor limit entirely (Pro and above do not meter how many vendors you watch) and route the same alerts into Slack, Discord, Microsoft Teams, PagerDuty and webhooks.

How do I report an issue with Kudos to the community?

Click "Report an issue" at the top of this page, pick the issue type and severity, and optionally add your region and a short note. Reports are anonymous and help other engineers spot Kudos problems early. Official status pages often lag real incidents by 10 to 20 minutes.

Is there a free way to monitor Kudos?

Yes. The free plan covers 3 monitored services with unlimited email alerts, permanently, so Kudos plus two more costs nothing. Every new account also opens with a 30-day Business trial (unlimited monitors, Slack alerts, SLA reporting) with no credit card.

4372+ vendors in one dashboard, and an email the moment any of them changes state. Three free, and no monitor limit at all from $29/mo, unlike the alternatives, which keep charging by the monitor.
