How to fix SolarWinds not working
SolarWinds is up on our end, so if it won't work for you, the problem is most likely on your side. Work through these in order:
Your browser tries to reach solarwinds.com over your own connection, right now. Nothing is sent to us or stored.
Check the report level
The status at the top of this page shows if user problem reports for the service are above their usual level. Counts use 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours; this site does not ping or test anything. If the level is normal, open https://status.cloud.solarwinds.com before you change anything on your machine.
Try a private window
Open the SolarWinds web console in a private or incognito window. If it loads there, clear the site's cookies and cached files in your normal browser, then sign in again. A stale session can cause login loops or a blank page even when the service is fine.
Check your account
If you see an invalid username or password message, confirm you're using the right login and that your account isn't locked. An admin can open Settings > All Settings > User Accounts in the Orion Web Console to check your access. Ask them to verify your role and whether your account is disabled.
Rule out your network
Disconnect from your VPN, then try the console again; some networks block the console or break the session. On Windows, open Command Prompt and run ipconfig /flushdns to clear a stale DNS record. If it still fails, sign in from another device on a different network to see if the problem follows your account or your machine.
While SolarWinds is down: what to use instead
- Official status page Check it first, because it tells you whether the problem is on the SolarWinds side and which of its cloud products are affected.
- Help centre ticket Open a support case through the help centre when the status page looks clean but your dashboards stay blank or alerts stop arriving.
- Ping and traceroute by hand You can test a router or server you care about from your own machine with ping or traceroute until the monitoring views load again.
- Logs on the host itself If Papertrail or Loggly stops showing new lines, read the logs on the server with journalctl on Linux or Event Viewer on Windows.

What happens when SolarWinds goes down
SolarWinds is monitoring software that IT teams like you use to watch servers, devices, logs and uptime from Orion Platform, Observability and Service Desk tools. So you lose visibility.
You notice it first when the web console hangs on login or shows blank dashboards while polling keeps running behind. Because polling and alerting depend on that console, you miss new alerts and you cannot drill into node details or Service Desk tickets until access returns. Failures stay partial often. One region or tenant loses Observability SaaS while on-prem Orion keeps collecting because your own server still polls the core local network.

How we track SolarWinds
The status on this page comes from user-submitted problem reports for SolarWinds, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. Each window is compared with the normal level for SolarWinds, so a few complaints on a quiet day don't trigger anything, but a sudden jump well above normal does.
When reports climb well above normal, the status here changes to partial outage or major outage and the chart moves with it. This is separate from SolarWinds's official status page: user reports tend to show a problem early, while the official page confirms the cause. If the two disagree, check both.
