Zoom reported “partial outages” for its video service just before 9 a.m. ET on Monday. 

“We have received reports of users being unable to visit the Zoom website (zoom.us) and unable to start and join Zoom Meetings and Webinars. We are currently investigating and will provide updates as we have them,” the company wrote on its service website. The company later said it is “continuing to work on a fix for this issue.”

The videoconferencing company has become instrumental during the Covid-19 pandemic. In an effort to replicate in-person meetings or lessons, businesses and schools have shifted toward using software that allows participants to meet virtually.

 Zoom does not disclose user numbers, but analysts from Bernstein estimated in June that its mobile app had 173 million monthly active users as of May 27, up from 14 million on March 4, per data from analytics firm Apptopia.

The company’s stock is up more than 325% year to date.
