“Can everyone please mute?” 

Have you heard or spoken these words during a company all-hands or virtual event? Or struggled to switch presenters and screen-sharing access during a meeting? Or scrambled to get everyone the same virtual background for consistent messaging? 

Hosting a virtual event, large-scale presentation, or company-wide all-hands requires more control and polish than your standard Zoom meeting. That’s why we have Zoom Webinars and Zoom Events. One of the most significant advantages is controlling the narrative and maintaining engagement. Webinars are typically structured presentations with a designated speaker or panel leading the discussion — audience members get to listen without appearing on camera. 

This format helps minimize the risk of distractions and tangential conversations, allowing participants to stay focused on the key points being presented. Integrating features such as screen sharing, slideshows, and multimedia elements in webinars helps to ensure that the content remains dynamic and holds the audience’s attention throughout the session. 

Produce all-hands like a pro

Our new production studio for Zoom Events makes adding pizzazz and polish to your event even easier. Need the same (dynamic) background for every presenter? Check. Need to switch between pre-defined scene layouts depending on whether you have a fireside chat, a presentation, or an announcement? Included. Need a backstage area for presenters to check their audio and video capabilities and align on the latest tweaks to the narrative? Already set up for you. 

And, of course, you can record every webinar and make it available to your audience afterward — with automatic transcriptions, smart chapters, and password protection if needed. So it’s easy to distribute the news to the entire team, regardless of if everyone can join the live session. 

Let us show you what Zoom Webinars and Zoom Events can do for your company. Get in contact and ask for a live demonstration.

Yesterday my camera would not work through ManyCam. A black screen appeared where my picture should have been displayed.  I'm a basic user, using Zoom for teaching students around the world.  I create my lessons in ManyCam and need to be able to use this as my camera source.  I switch to my LG camera and everything is fine.  Anyone else having trouble with third party cameras??  My student could hear me, but no luck with the camera.  I'm using an LG Gram laptop and open Zoom through Chrome.  Any suggestions or update on changes would be great.  Thanks!

Hola,

Estoy desarrollando una clínica psicológica online. Quiero integrar las citas online con Zoom a través de su API y que cada vez que se haga una reserva a través de la web se creen automáticamente los enlaces.

Actualmente voy a utilizar https://wpamelia.com/configuring-zoom/ pero tengo dudas sobre qué tipo de plan de Zoom necesito.

Los requisitos es que puede haber varios profesionales a la vez haciendo terapia a través de Zoom en diferentes reuniones.

Un saludo.

TLDR Version of this Post in YT

This week I had an extremely interesting strategic conversation with an Association Management firm that stood out to me. Apart from their own account, they are also managing 34 individual Zoom accounts. With this work setup, their team heavily relies on the Zoom Team Chat.  Zoom Team Chat allows both free and paid users to streamline communications between team members and external Zoom users with instant messaging integrated to the Zoom platform. For them, this is a one-stop shop because it helps them keep their distributed teams informed and company culture alive. 

During the session, some of the benefits mentioned were: it’s easy to manage and deploy, improved time-to-employee effectiveness which empowers their staff and offers advanced features and functionality that save time and enhance collaboration.

Also, some of the key features that they’re fond of are the Meet with Video, Zoom Phone Call (for their ad hoc meetings) and Schedule Meeting buttons. Since they are happy with these accessible features, I shared a recently added button which is the Share screen in chat which allows users to click the new Screen Share button to share their screen with another chat user which made them very excited to try.

They’re also leveraging another new feature which is the Continuous Meeting Chat. This allows meeting participants to communicate before, during, and after a meeting by creating a dedicated group chat in Zoom Team Chat for all meeting participants. I also told them that the ability to Schedule a Message is now part of the Team Chat roadmap and they’re really looking forward to utilizing it. Since they are working with various accounts, this upcoming functionality will allow them to schedule a chat to be sent at a later time, to better align with a team member’s time zone, working hours, and OOO plans.

These helpful items really confirmed that Zoom Team Chat is adding value to their subscription and is continuously evolving to meet various customer use cases. It’s definitely not only for instant messaging but a lot more! Truly with Zoom, productivity knows no bounds. Your days will be filled with seamless collaboration, intelligent insights, and boundless opportunities for growth.
