Zoom Video Communication Inc. mentioned that it had recovered from an outage due to which some users were unable to join meetings on the video-conferencing platform on Wednesday.

The company's status page said all systems were operational, reports PTI.

Zoom said the glitch was likely due to a localized internet service issue.

The video conferencing platform has seen multifold increase in its users due to remote working and online learning induced by the pandemic and its side effects including stay-at-home.

Outage tracking website Downdetector.com showed nearly 2,000 incidents of people reporting issues with Zoom at its peak at 9 am ET.

Separately, telecom operator Verizon Communication Inc's internet services were also affected earlier, with nearly 5,400 users registering complaints at 10 am ET, according to Downdetector.

Verizon said it had since resolved the issue. "Earlier today there was an issue impacting internet routing for some of our customers. The issue has since been resolved,” a spokesperson for the telecom operator said.

In January, thousands of users across the US East Coast faced widespread internet outage from providers including Verizon, which disrupted services offered by Google, Amazon, Zoom, Slack and other technology firms.

Downdetector tracks outages by collating status reports from a series of sources, including user-submitted errors on its platform. The outages might be affecting a larger number of users.
