I HATE Zoom Workplace

Is there anyway to revert back to Zoom instead of Zoom workplace? Am so frustrated with it, 80% of my reoccurring meetings no longer work even though they're on the calendar. I didn't ask for this additional noise on the plan. I can't believe this, but I'm about ready to switch to Microsoft teams because I can't take, what they did to Zoom, which was the best program out there. Anyone know how to back to zoom instead of zoom workplace?

    Hello,

     

    Zoom just rebranded Zoom  5.X to Zoom “Workplace “ when they released Zoom 6.0. The name means nothing in the grand scheme of things. It’s the version number that matters. The rest is marketing.

     

    You can’t stay on Zoom 5.X forever as Zoom has a requirement that you not be more than 9 months behind the current release cycle.

     You can install an older version of Zoom for now, but you will eventually be required to update or you won’t be able to log in to a meeting on the desktop client. 

    You can download older versions of Zoom meetings here for Windows:  https://zoom-us-zoom.en.uptodown.com/windows/versions  and here for Mac: https://zoom.en.uptodown.com/mac/versions 

     


    The next enforcement is November 2, 

    5.17.5 (Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, iOS, Intune)
