As per the latest updates, Zoom was down and unavailable for users worldwide and was preventing them from signing in or attending any meeting or webinar through it.
People complained that they were unable to start or join any meetings and some also added that they were unable to manage their zoom services on websites.
The users also mentioned that they were getting error pages displayed with text like “Sorry the
page you are looking for is currently unavailable. Please try again later” “If you are the system
administrator of this resource then you should check the error log for details, faithfully yours,
Nginx.”
Zoom played a crucial role during the pandemic in recent years when the importance of cloud-based software, apps, and online activities was truly valued. During the global pandemic, people were stuck inside their homes and were forced to work, study, or communicate with family through screens. The application came as a savior, helping some people in being employed, and some in learning.
During the investigation, the reports by Downdetector stated that the breakdown of Zoom
was affecting numerous users worldwide. It was also noticed that early reports were majorly
from the East coast of the US and the southern UK.
The company itself verified and posted about the issue mentioned by the users on zoom’s service status page. The issue was figured out at 6:50 a.m., as per the reports. Zoom also kept updating throughout its investigation as it posted “we have identified the issue starting and joining meetings. We will continue to investigate and provide updates as we have them.”
Zoom is a cloud-based platform allowing people to connect with each other worldwide through video conferencing or communication through collaboration. It provides virtual meetings by either audio or video or both modes. The app works on mobile, desktops, and laptops.
The people facing the issue in zoom services let out a sigh of relief when the video conferencing company posted about the fixing of unavailable services on its status page on the 15th of September. “Everything should be working properly now! We are continuing to monitor the situation.” The
CEO of Zoom tweeted, putting forth an apology for the disruption of the zoom services.
