Is Microsoft Teams down? Users complain app not working in mystery outage | The Sun

MICROSOFT Teams appears to have suffered some issues on Wednesday.

Hundreds of reports regarding Microsoft Teams being down flooded Downdetector at around 7.30 am EST.

WHAT'S WRONG WITH MICROSOFT TEAMS?

According to Downdetector, people are having trouble accessing the system.

Around 51 percent of reports noted issues surrounding the website.

Another 26 percent of reports flagged problems with logging in.

The remaining 22 percent reported concerns regarding the app.

WHAT'S CAUSING THESE PROBLEMS?

It's not exactly clear what caused Microsoft Teams to stop working for some users this morning.

However, earlier this year the platform suffered a similar outage, and tech expert Matthew Gooding explained in TechMonitor that it was due to network configuration issues.

He cited a Twitter thread in which Microsoft had explained it was experiencing problems with "multiple services" from its Office 365 suite.

"We’ve isolated the problem to networking configuration issues, and we’re analyzing the best mitigation strategy to address these without causing additional impact," the company tweeted.
