40 minute limit on meetings for Licensed users

[lapreanva]

Hello,

I'm an Administrator on an Enterprise account. Many of our Licensed users are experiencing the 40 minute limit on meetings. After reviewing their ZOOM profiles to verify their user types, their user types are still set to Licensed oppose to Basic. Why are our Licensed users experiencing the Basic user settings?

Have you opened a Zoom support ticket? This seems like a serious issue.

Hi @lapreanva suggest double-checking to see if the license is still assigned to the correct user that is hosting those meetings.

Suggest looking into the KB on Assigning Zoom licenses

Yes, the License was still assigned to the user. So far, it's happened to 3 users within the last month. The 1st user reporting the incident, I contacted support. Support needed more information from the user to make a proper assessment. The user only provided the error message he received indicating the 40 minute limit warning.

Hi, 

Would you be willing to share the ticket number?

I saw two similar situations this week. Quoting your ticket number in my own support case might help Zoom support spot a pattern.

cheers,

Frank

I'm seeing the same thing recently.  Also on an enterprise account, all licenses are assigned properly.

According to my most recent interaction with Zoom support, this is likely caused by the Outlook plugin storing old information about an account and not syncing with the enterprise account. Their recommending switching to using the Outlook Add-in, rather than the Outlook plugin, as that is where most of the development & new features are being developed. Here's a link about how to install the Add-in here:

Hi everyone, 

The latest Zoom release on February 27, 2023, resolved an issue where licensed users received a 40-minute time limit on meetings with Zoom Outlook plugin. Please update Zoom to the latest version. Thank you!
