About Zoom outages
Written by the HostTracker monitoring team · updated from live probe data.
Zoom carries a huge share of business meetings, webinars, and remote interviews, so an outage at the wrong moment can mean missed meetings, failed interviews, or a webinar that can't start - high-stakes, time-sensitive failures in a way that a lot of other SaaS outages aren't. Zoom's meeting-join, in-call media (audio/video), and web dashboard/scheduling components can fail somewhat independently, so it's possible to join a meeting successfully while audio or screen-share breaks mid-call, or to be unable to join at all while the scheduling dashboard works fine. A quick check of zoom.us's own reachability is a useful first step before assuming a problem is specific to your own network or device.
Common causes of Zoom downtime
Meeting-join infrastructure incidents that prevent new meetings from starting while already-connected calls continue
In-call media (audio/video) quality degradation from network or media-server issues distinct from the join process itself
Web dashboard or scheduling-system incidents that block creating/managing meetings without affecting active calls
Regional network routing issues that make zoom.us unreachable or degraded from specific countries or corporate networks

Questions people ask during an outage
The live probe run on this page tests zoom.us from a broad sample of HostTracker's 300+-location monitoring network - many independent networks at the same moment, rather than just your own connection. If every location fails to reach it, the outage is real and affects everyone; if only a few locations fail while most load normally, the problem is local to those regions or networks rather than Zoom being fully down. A single refresh from your own browser can never make that distinction, because it only ever tests from one vantage point on one network.
Yes. HostTracker lets you add any URL - including third-party services you depend on, not just your own website - as a monitored target, and notifies you automatically the moment it becomes unreachable. Before sending an alert, HostTracker re-verifies a failure from multiple locations in its 300+-location network, so you're notified about real, confirmed outages rather than a single location's momentary blip. The free plan checks two monitors every 30 minutes indefinitely at no cost; paid plans check as often as once a minute, with alerts available through SMS, email, voice call, and several messenger apps.
Meeting-join (the connection handshake that gets you into a call) and in-call media (the actual audio/video streams) are handled somewhat separately, so it's possible to successfully join a meeting while audio or video specifically fails to connect properly - this can point to a media-server-side issue rather than a full outage, or in many cases a local device/permissions/network issue (camera or mic access, firewall blocking media ports) rather than a Zoom-side problem at all. If it's affecting everyone in the meeting rather than just you, it's more likely server-side.
Yes - the Zoom desktop/mobile app (which handles actual meeting join and calls) and zoom.us the website (used for scheduling, account management, and the web-based join flow) run on related but distinct infrastructure. It's possible for the website to be slow or partially broken while the app itself joins meetings fine, or the reverse. If you're specifically unable to join meetings, that's the component to check first rather than just confirming the marketing website loads.
