Microsoft Teams down for thousands of users

Microsoft Corp. stated on Wednesday that it was looking into an outage that prevented customers from using any Microsoft Teams services or accessing the service in general.

The company, however, made no mention of the number of users who were impacted.

According to Downdetector.com, which analyses outages by compiling status updates from sources including user-submitted faults on its platform, there were more than 4,800 cases of customers reporting troubles with Microsoft Teams.


Additionally, it revealed that more than 150 instances of users claiming problems with Microsoft Office 365 occurred.

A near six-hour long outage at Meta Platforms last October prevented WhatsApp, Instagram, and Messenger from being accessed by billions of users, among other major digital companies that have also had outages in the past year.
