I've set up a webinar for 2 hours.  Is it possible to extend the duration after the webinar has started, so to add another 30 minutes for it to end at 2:30 while the webinar is still in progress?  This is for a paid webinar subscription and I am the Zoom account admin.

Appreciate any guidance.  Thanks !

In the ever-evolving world of virtual events, creating a seamless and engaging experience for attendees is key. One feature that’s helping event organizers strike the perfect balance between preparation and live interaction 

is Simulive in Zoom Events. This tool has become a game-changer for many professionals, including myself, who aim to deliver polished presentations while staying accessible to their audience.

Recently, I had the opportunity to host a Zoom Event where I leveraged the Simulive feature. For the main session content, I pre-recorded my presentation, allowing me to deliver my message with precision and consistency. During the event itself, I stayed behind the scenes in the Backstage area, monitoring the session and responding to attendees’ questions in real time. This approach not only helped me engage with my audience more effectively but also reduced the pressure of speaking live.

What makes Simulive so unique is the ability to transition seamlessly from a pre-recorded session to live interaction. Once the pre-recorded content ended, I stepped into the spotlight for a live Q&A session. This combination of polished delivery and real-time interaction added a personal touch that attendees 

truly appreciated. Simulive also provides flexibility for event hosts. While you must be present during the session's transition from pre-recorded to live, you’re not required to stay for the entire duration of the playback. This means you can multitask or handle other event logistics, knowing you’ll step in when it’s time to engage directly with attendees.

Whether you're managing a large-scale virtual conference or running a focused educational webinar, Simulive offers a perfect blend of structure and spontaneity. By preparing your content in advance and staying available for live interaction, you can create an event experience that’s both professional and highly engaging.

Have you tried Simulive yet? If not, I highly recommend exploring it for your next Zoom Event. It’s a tool that truly empowers you to deliver the best of both worlds.

Things to consider: 

Limitations of Zoom Events simulive webinars

• During the simulive phase, hosts and panelists cannot speak or appear on live video in front of webinar attendees and can only use the chat and Q&A features. However, once the simulive playback ends and the webinar transitions to live (if the option was enabled), all previously restricted features—such as video, audio, and full interaction—are enabled.
• Only the speaker view is selected in recordings, even if you recorded with multiple views.
• Hosts can’t add multiple cloud recordings to a single simulive webinar.
• Since simulive webinars start automatically, they do not support practice sessions. If backstage is used, access to backstage will begin at the scheduled time.

  

Hi Community 

I've installed the Pardot App, but when I go into my 'Webinar' > 'Integrations', the only option is to generate prospects via Forms. How do I add Form Handlers? I don't see an option in 'Configure App' to turn or toggle Form Handlers on. Is it even an option anymore?  

Bonjour,

Je souhaite utiliser Zoom pour diffuser un live sur Linkedin.

Linkedin m'a communiqué un URL et un code à intégrer dans ZOOM pour cette diffusion mais je ne vois pas où je peux saisir ces éléments.

Quelqu'un peut-il m'aider ?

Merci d'avance.

Hi, I'm having an issue viewing the attendees information during a live Webinar. I tried to turn on and off the feature, tries to reset all my setting it checks that i can view all but when I jump on live webinar the feature doesn't work. Also the chat feature, I can't see the chat of my clients during my zoom, i tried to turn on these setting but still no working. Does anyone have a clue what I'm doing wrong? I have a licensed account for up to 500 participants. 

Hello, 

We've added tags to a few sessions in our multi-session zoom event. They appear on the registration page on each of the sessions. See the image below, you can see two tags, one of them says construction.  

Unfortunately, they do not show up inside the lobby. See below. 

I can filter by audience and product, but users need to click into the filter button. Is there something I can do to make them show up in the lobby by default? 

Hi,

Can anyone confirm how do I get Milliseconds in Results after conducting Polls/Quiz? The report generated only shows Seconds and it doesn't even shows results in the order of "Fastest answer First".

Is there any setting by which i can have results with milliseconds in the Poll/Quiz report(s)?

Bonjour,

Ma cliente dispose de la version Zoom pro et peut donc recourir à la transcription traduite en direct de Zoom mais la qualité de traduction est insuffisante. Nous prévoyons un webinaire pour lequel peu d'anglophones sont attendus, investir dans l'intervention de traducteurs professionnels est donc exclu. Y a t-il des moyens d'améliorer la qualité de la traduction instantanée, par exemple en recourant à une IA jumelée à Zoom ou une fonctionnalité Zoom plus avancée ? Merci pour votre aide.
