Withdrawal of free Basic Scheduler

Hi,

I’ve received email notification that Scheduler Basic (the free version) is being withdrawn from Oct 2026 and will now be chargeable.

Does anyone know if this will impact the ability to schedule a meeting via things such a Outlook plug-in or Schedule a Meeting - Zoom when using a ZOOM Workplace Pro account? I can see offers to encourage a further upgrade to ZOOM Business where the full Schedule package is included but I’m not sure if this is really necessary.

Any guidance much appreciated.

    hi ​@Beastfan 

    The Zoom Scheduler beng referref to in the Zoom Schedeuler which is a separate APP.
    THis does not affect your abilty to scheulde meetings.

    Zoom schedeuler allows you to build booking pages onto which people can then arragne a mmetings with you based upon the avilaability you have setup.

    Your ability to schedule and host regular Zoom meetings is unaffected.

    Thanks Beastfan.

    The final line which says:

    • Do nothing if you do not use Zoom Scheduler. Your ability to schedule and host regular Zoom meetings is unaffected.

    is the answer I was looking for.
