At 15:36 BST, Zoom published a note saying it had received reports of users being unable to access the Zoom Web Portal. Eleven minutes later, at 15:59, Zoom posted a second note which said it had resolved the issue causing some users problems accessing the Web Portal.
According to the website Down Detector, issues were being reported from 15:00 BST. If this is correct, Zoom’s total downtime would have amounted to around one hour.
The outages were not reportedly limited to the United Kingdom. Issues were also reported in the U.S. and Canada.
Zoom has not explained the cause of the outages on its Zoom Service Status page and all its services are now listed as operational.
The company does provide announcements about scheduled maintenance, some of which it warns may affect its service.
The next planned maintenance is to Zoom Phone in the Sydney Data Centre. Zoom explains: “Zoom Phone users registered to the Sydney data center will be automatically registered in an alternative data center when change starts at 12AM AEST on 6/25/22 (7AM PDT 6/24/22).
