What's going to happen if more than 100 people are trying to connect ?

I have the "zoom pro version" which is limited to 100 people. 

But I don't want to pay for the extension "Large Meetings". Too expensive. 

 

What's going to happen if more than 100 people are trying to connect ? 

Is zoom going to prevent the next people from connecting ? Is zoom going to stop the meeting ? ...

 

thanks for your help and,

sorry for my english

      Hi @Jonathan_bau 

      When your meeting has reached capacity, any new participants that try to join will be shown a message saying the meeting is at capacity. They will not be able to join, and the current meeting will continue without interruption.

        @Jonathan_bau- Do you know if there is a way to edit the message latecomers read if the meeting is at capacity?   ( I would like to tell them to check a link for a recording if they come back in a day)

        Hi @Jonathan_bau 

         

        I agree with @Bort .

        They receive a message, But it doesn't disturb you or the meeting.

          Hi @Bort, I scheduled a meeting with a Pro license and added the large meetings add-on after.  Do i need to recreate a new meeting or will it just allow more than 100 participants to join?

          Hi @KonMon 

          As long as you've assigned the Large Meeting add-on to yourself before you start the meeting, you will have the increased capacity. No need to create a new meeting, just to assign the license. This support article has info about how to assign licenses, if you need it: https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/115004976063-Assigning-Zoom-licenses

           

          Hope that helps and let me know if you have any further questions. Otherwise, make sure to mark the solution as accepted if this information is what you needed.
