Getting started
Insights
A plain-language heads-up on what's worth keeping an eye on across your sites.
Plan availability
Insights is available on Starter, Pro and Business. See the plan comparison.
What Insights is
Insights looks across what DomainDash already knows about your sites (uptime and response time, SSL certificates, domain renewals, and recent incidents) and writes a short summary of what, if anything, deserves a look today.
When everything's healthy, it says so. When something's drifting, such as a certificate nearing its renewal date, a site that's been responding slowly, or a domain coming up for expiry, it tells you in a sentence or two.
Where you'll find it
Insights shows up on your dashboard and on each site's page. It also appears on your public status page.
On your dashboard
At the top-left of your dashboard, the "all sites" summary card carries a short team-wide digest: a sentence summarising the overall picture, followed by a few bullets calling out the specific things worth a look. Where a bullet is about a particular site, it links straight to that site.
It's the team-wide answer to "is there anything I should deal with today?"
On each site
Open any site's detail page and you'll find a per-site version: a short narrative about that one site, drawing on its uptime trend, certificate and domain expiry, and any recent incidents.
What it keeps an eye on
Insights draws on the checks you'd otherwise read one screen at a time:
- Expiring certificates — an SSL certificate approaching its renewal date.
- Upcoming domain renewals — a domain registration coming up for expiry.
- Slow responses — a site that's been responding slowly.
- Recent incidents — anything that's recently gone wrong, including whether it has recovered.
- Good news, too — uptime milestones and stretches where everything's stayed healthy.
Insights summarises what DomainDash has already checked. It doesn't run any extra checks of its own, and it never changes anything.
Preparing, then ready
Insights is written fresh in the background rather than stored forever, so the first time you open a page you may see a brief preparing state while DomainDash writes the summary. The finished summary then appears on its own, and you don't need to refresh the page. If DomainDash can't produce a summary, it hides the card rather than showing you an error.
Insights on the Free plan
The Free plan doesn't include Insights. On a Free team's dashboard you'll see a short prompt pointing you to the plan comparison instead of the digest. Starter, Pro and Business include it, and so does the 30-day trial. See plans and pricing for the full breakdown, or upgrade your plan to switch it on.
New teams get Insights during the trial
Every new team starts on a 30-day trial that includes Insights. See your free trial for what's included.
Frequently asked questions
What is Insights?
Insights is a plain-language daily heads-up that summarises what to keep an eye on across your sites: things like a certificate expiring soon, a site that has been responding slowly, or a recent incident. There's a team-wide summary on your dashboard and a per-site version on each site's detail page.
Which plans include Insights?
Insights is included on Starter, Pro and Business, and during the 30-day trial. The Free plan doesn't include it, and you'll see a short prompt to upgrade instead.
Why does it take a moment to appear?
Insights is written fresh in the background. When you first open the page you may see a brief "preparing" state, and the summary appears as soon as it's ready, without you needing to refresh.
