Which plan should we use to live stream a client event?

[CristelR]

Hi all

We've been using the Pro license for a few years since Covid and only make use of it for normal client review meetings and office quick team meetings. 

We would like to stream our client event on 3 October (have never done this before). Don't expect more than 500 people on the steam and about 400 in person on the day. 

Can someone please provide some advise on this? Which plan etc.? Best way of doing this. Clients can provide feedback on the day and ask questions, although it won't be answered live. They shouldn't be able show their video and no audio from their side. We won't have any polls. 

Your assistance will be greatly appreciated.

Welcome to the Zoom Community, @CristelR.

Most very large sessions like this are better as Webinars.  Even if you wanted to see and hear 400 people, it usually wouldn't work out well in a Meeting format. With a webinar, you can still interact with the audience via Chat and Q&A.  You can get a monthly Webinar license that will accommodate 500 people for $79/month.

Both Meetings and Webinars have the ability to Live-Stream to almost any destination, including YouTube, Vimeo, LinkedIn, etc.  If you haven't done this before, you're going to need to learn and practice a lot in advance.

If you'd like some custom assistance, reach out to me via LinkedIn at https://LinkedIn.com/in/RayHarwood.  I'll respond with Email address and a link to schedule a no-cost discovery meeting via Zoom.
