Workday experienced an outage this afternoon, leaving thousands of users unable to access the site.
The outage began around 1:30pm ET, with users reporting the Workday login page showed an ‘error’ or ‘session failure’ notice when they tried to login, while others said the page wouldn’t load at all.
The company acknowledged the outage in a message to customers, saying it experienced an ‘unplanned service interruption’ and is actively working to resolve this issue.’
Workday is experiencing an outage, leaving thousands of users unable to access the platform
Workday is a cloud-based management platform companies use to organize HR and finance files.
Users have taken to social media to complain about the outage, saying it’s prevented them from continuing with their job.
‘Incredibly frustrating to have a great productive day only to be slowed down by a Workday outage,’ one person wrote.
Another said: ‘Yes…. another nationwide outage to an already strange week!’
A Workday spokesperson shared an email screenshot of a note shared to customers this morning, telling them it would inform users about the status of the outage at 2pm ET, ‘if not sooner.’
The notice was shared by a third party on Downdetector, but as of 4pm ET users were still left wondering when the platform would go back online.
A Workday spokesperson told DailyMail.com that they’re ‘continuing to keep customers updated via our community site which they have access to.’
