Outages can hit a company's earnings reports.

A Slack outage Monday, the first workday of 2021, caused disruptions for remote workers who rely on the platform to message and video chat with colleagues.

Millions of people use Slack, and the service has been especially important during the Covid pandemic.

The outage began around 10 a.m. ET, but service started to resume about three hours later.

Slack shares were down nearly 1% in afternoon trading.

In September 2019, Slack's stock fell 14% after the quarterly earnings report revealed that it took an $8.2 million hit to revenues because of credits to customers after service-level disruptions. Credits help companies cover future bills.

Salesforce announced on Dec. 1 it is buying Slack for over $27 billion.

During the outage, Slack's status dashboard said there were problems with Messaging and Connections but did not say what caused the issues or when chat should return to normal.
