Messaging service Slack was hit with an outage Monday morning as many users returned to work after the New Year’s holiday.

The outage occurred at approximately 7:15 a.m. PT/10:15 a.m. ET, according to the official Slack Status Twitter account.

DownDetector.com also showed a spike in outage reports at that time.

Users signing on were greeted with an error page with the message: “It seems like there’s a problem connecting to our servers, and we’re investigating the issue.”

Last month, Salesforce purchased Slack in a massive $27 billion deal. Slack stock was fractionally down slightly in morning trading.
