Workday outage Thursday appears to be resolved
( KRON) — A widespread outage that hit Workday Thursday morning appears to be resolved, according to Downdetector. Reports of the outage began coming in shortly before 5 a.m. and rose steadily throughout the morning.
Of the over 1,200 workers flooding Downdetector to report outages, 68% of them complained of problems with the website, 17% complained of server connection issues and 16% reported log-in issues.
Commenters on the Downdetector outage page reported difficulties logging in to the platform, problems sending verification emails, and trouble making purchase order receipts, among other issues.
As of 11:30 a.m. Thursday, the platform seemingly remained down. Visitors to the Workday website were met with a message that read, “Workday is currently unavailable.”
“We are experiencing a service interruption. Your service will be restored as quickly as possible,” the message continued. “We apologize for the inconvenience. If you are a Workday customer and require additional assistance please contact the Workday Administrator within your organization. Otherwise, please check back later.”
Shortly after 2 p.m., reports of outage problems began to taper off on Downdetector.
“Workday is backup!” wrote one commenter on the site.
