Multiple emails/multiple account questions

Welcome to the Zoom Community, @joe_aeroclean,

Any add-on beyond your Zoom Meeting license can only be attached to one Zoom user account/login. I understand the possible need for multiple email addresses (I’ve got multiple addresses too), but I highly recommend consolidating your Zoom usage to one Zoom account – unless there’s real reason for more than one. (Enlighten me please!)

I’m pretty sure the Outlook plug-in uses the Zoom account that your Zoom Desktop Client is logged into. If you need to manage multiple email accounts and multiple Zoom accounts – and assuming there are all Licensed (paid) accounts under the same organization (owner), I’d recommend setting up Scheduling Privilege saving your various accounts. This would permit you to start any meeting regardless of which shared Scheduler created the meeting. 

See this Zoom Support article for details on setting up Scheduling Privilege:

https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/201362803-Scheduling-privilege 

As a solo Zoom events producer, I keep two Licensed accounts which share Scheduling Privilege, and several Basic accounts to use as Test Attendees when trying out new features. One of my Licensed accounts is used 98% of the time to own meetings; and with Scheduling Privilege you can move ownership of meetings (and Webinars) back and forth if necessary. 

Let me know if you need any additional guidance. 

Hi Ray - Thank you for the response.

If I understand you correctly, the Scheduling Privilege would apply only to multiple users on the same account under the same domain, correct?

In my situation, I have 3 separate companies with different email domains and a free Zoom account associated with each email. I want to upgrade the business emails so I can get more than 40 minutes of conference time. I was hoping there was a way to pay for one upgrade that would apply to the separate email/zoom accounts rather than having to buy 3 upgrades. So it appears that is not possible, correct?

Your answer about the Outlook plugin being tied to one of the accounts probably explains a "problem" I have experienced. Let's assume it is associated with Company A. I go into the calendar for Company B to schedule a meeting. I click  "Schedule a Meeting" and the invite pops up with Company B's email. But when I start the meeting from the Company B invite it does not recognize me as the Organizer but as a Participant stuck in the lobby. I was assuming the Plugin was using the account associated with the email from the calendar I was scheduling. 

Anyway, I appreciate your time....Joe
