Dealer Spike: Dealership websites experienced downtime April 3

Dealerships whose websites are powered by Dealer Spike let us at Powersports Business headquarters know en masse on Wednesday, April 3, that their websites had been down for hours.

Powersports Business reached out to Dealer Spike to learn more about what happened.

“Dealer Spike experienced downtime yesterday due to a hardware issue at one of our data centers,” Jack Tomlinson, chief technology officer at Dealer Spike, told Powersports Business in an email. “The issue has now been resolved. We continue to monitor data center performance closely, and are confident yesterday’s root cause is addressed.”
