Need help

Hi everyone,

I am a new Zoom member and I have some questions for you (i'm french so sorry for my bad english) ;

First of all, I have to precise that I haven't bought a professionnal Zoom account yet (maybe it can explain some problems I had). 

I would like to organise a training with 16 people and I would like to divide them into 8 sub-groups. 

I made a technical test on tuesday and here are the problems I had :

- first, when I clicked on my Zoom invitation, I received the message "please wait for the host to invite you" (the problem was that....I was the host so I didn't manage to open the invitation properly). Do you know what I have to do exactly as the host to open a Zoom invitation and to autorise people to come ?

- then, I divided the people in sub-groups but in a tuto video, I saw that normally, we're supposed to have options (like for example "close the rooms in XX minutes automatically" and I didn't see those options. I could juste assign people in rooms but no more options. Do you know if it's normal ? Is it related to the fact that I didn't buy a professional account ?

- my last question is : to divide people in sub-groups, do I have to pay a Zoom room offer ? I see the price (one room is like 36  € per month but it seems really expensive cause I need 8 rooms (I think I make a confusion cause the sub-groups seem included in the basic and free offer but since I have no options (cf question 2), I don't know if I have to buy this offer).

Thank you very much for your help !
