Ooma Forums

Here in Silicon Valley, hub still clicking away. It's up more than not, but it's dropped twice in the last half hour. And Ooma states all is OK...

Pennsylvania here. Still clicking away since yesterday.

My fingers are crossed that I am "fixed"

It's 7:35pm and I am still up and running... I think things must be fixed now

Later in the evening (around midnight) it started acting up again

I am blue right now...but I just got up... Not sure how stable it's been through the night...

UPDATE: Dang it... It's clicking in and out every few minutes again...

My Ooma Hub is still flapping between red and blue in Seattle as of 7:20am.

Had one brief on-off-on this morning within roughly the last hour here in Western NY. Other than this recent event I typically never see the status light cycle.

I hope that they dig deep enough to determine the root cause of this issue and address it.

My concern is regarding all of the Oomas recently given as gifts or purchased just before the end of the year. These new customers are likely taxing the system resources (if Ooma did not foresee and plan for the possibility). They very likely may cancel their service and return their Oomas due to this service reliability event within such a short timeframe of use. This could be a bit of a financial hit to Ooma.

I would think that fairly regular updates about the problem solving process with just enough detail indicating that Ooma is reaching a true solution would help alleviate the concern that many customers, especially new ones, may have.
Even better, it would have been nice if they let us know in advance that a major change to the system (i.e. update to core server) was planned. If it goes well, customers are encouraged by efforts to grow the business. If an issue arises, they can relate it to a recent event rather than assuming a system break down. The fact that Ooma already has a status thread and Tweet to subscribe to for communication of this information is excellent.

I have been a customer since October and have been very happy overall with my Hub, Scout and service given the level that we use the product.

System has kicked in and out a couple of times in the past hour. They must still be tweaking to get things back to normal. I have to say that I'm a satisfied customer even with a system problem like this. I feel OOMA will only improve and it certainly is many times less expensive than Verizon. Patience is something OOMA customers need to use while the growing pains continue but, it is the best phone service for the money!!!

You should place the new Data Center in NE Ohio, i would definitely apply to help manage it.
also we have an ooma hum with scout and it is still going from in service to out and back every 2 hours.

The "root cause", as mentioned elsewhere, is a server upgrade they performed that uh, didn't go well.

It would be nice to be able to use my OOMA tel set, PERIOD let alone a cell phone. The Ooma web site will not allow me to remove unwanted tel sets so I cannot use my 2nd Ooma tel set.

Ooma just says; "oh, we will check into that.." This has happened time and time again.

I think Ooma just posts good stuff to this forum to keep their reputation. It's FALSE and misleading info. Ooma stinks.

vready,

The ooma logo has previously been used by ooma moderators only so that people can easily tell who is posting. Please reconsider the use of a trademarked avatar that is confusing for other users. It is just the right thing to do.
