Thousands of users in the United States reported widespread service disruptions with Outlook, Microsoft 365, and Teams on Thursday, according to the outage tracking platform Downdetector.
Reports of Outlook outages exceeded 130,000 at 8:27 p.m. Cyprus time. At the same time, more than 46,000 reports of issues with Microsoft 365 and approximately 3,000 reports of difficulties accessing Teams were recorded.
These figures represent problem reports and do not necessarily reflect the total number of affected users. Downdetector aggregates data from various sources to monitor service outages.
Microsoft had announced earlier in the day that it had resolved a Teams outage in North America and that the issue had been fully resolved.
In a subsequent update, however, the company stated that the issue may also be affecting connectivity to Microsoft 365 services for users in other regions.
