Klaxel vs IT Glue

IT Glue documents your clients. Klaxel grades their domains — and alerts you the moment one breaks.

What IT Glue does well

IT Glue is widely regarded as the gold standard for IT documentation, and for good reason — structured, relational documentation that scales across a large client base. Klaxel doesn't try to be your documentation platform. If IT Glue is your system of record, keep it. Klaxel's job is different: grade the health of every client domain and alert you the moment it breaks.

Runs alongside your stack

Klaxel sits next to IT Glue, not on top of it. Your team keeps documenting in IT Glue; Klaxel runs 14 graded checks a day on every client domain — email authentication (SPF, DKIM and DMARC), blacklist/DNSBL reputation, SSL/TLS, DNS and DNSSEC — and rolls them into a single A–F grade, plus a daily RDAP domain-expiry guardian on top. When a grade drops or a check breaks, Klaxel alerts you — and on Core MSP ($249/mo) and up it can open a native ConnectWise PSA ticket, or fire a webhook to any PSA that accepts one (HaloPSA, SuperOps, and more), automatically.

Frequently asked questions

Does Klaxel replace IT Glue?
No. IT Glue is the documentation gold standard, and Klaxel doesn't try to be your documentation platform. Klaxel is a domain-health scorecard that grades every client domain A–F and alerts you when something breaks — it runs alongside IT Glue.
Doesn't IT Glue's Domain Tracker already cover this?
IT Glue's Domain Tracker checks WHOIS about monthly, DNS daily, and the SSL certificate every 24–48 hours — periodic tracking aimed mainly at domain expiry and certificate changes. It has no SPF/DKIM/DMARC checking of any kind and produces no health grade. Klaxel runs 14 graded checks — email auth, blacklist/DNSBL, SSL/TLS, DNS and DNSSEC — distills each domain into one A–F grade, and adds a daily RDAP expiry guardian.
Can I run Klaxel alongside IT Glue?
Yes. Keep your documentation in IT Glue; let Klaxel grade domain health and alert you the moment email auth, TLS or DNS regresses on any client domain.
Can Klaxel open a ticket in my PSA?
Yes — on Core MSP ($249/mo) and up, a domain-health event can auto-open a native ConnectWise ticket, or fire a webhook to any PSA that accepts one (HaloPSA, SuperOps, and more). Autotask is coming. IT Glue's Domain Tracker doesn't turn a domain issue into a ticket — Klaxel lands it in the queue your techs already work.
