Some Zoom Video Communications Inc users were unable to join meetings on the video-conferencing platform on March 3, which was likely due to a localised Internet service issue, the company said.

The platform has seen a meteoric rise in users, thanks to remote work and online learning against the backdrop of stay-at-home orders.
