On the morning of September 4th, 2018 a number of customers experienced sign-in problems related to an outage for Azure, Azure AD and, in turn, Office 365. The issue was caused by an outage in Microsoft’s South Central U.S. datacenter. The problem ended up affecting customers in other regions, too, as we will see.

CloudReady dashboards enable a great degree of customization, a wide array of widgets, and the ability to build visualizations for monitoring the health, availability, and performance of all of your SaaS apps — especially Office 365. If you’re going to build a dashboard for all of your cloud/SaaS apps you want to be able to customize and get it just right for the different teams within your organization.

Exoprise recently released support for Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) 2.0 integration to enable CloudReady Single Sign-On (SSO) for user access to CloudReady. Exoprise always supported testing and monitoring web-based SSO like ADFS, Ping, & Okta but had not gotten around to finishing our integrated SAML support – well wait no longer – its here! No more letting users manage passwords in CloudReady unless you want to.
