Zoom Rooms Pool

Hi @DavidQ 

Typically, "Zoom Rooms" would be licensed hardware and software solutions put into a physical meeting space - but they can then be booked in the way you describe. https://explore.zoom.us/docs/en-us/zoomrooms.html

Using actual Zoom Rooms for a purely virtual pool implementation would be relatively expensive in licensing alone. Depending on your numbers. https://zoom.us/pricing/zoom-rooms

Zoom Rooms generally run on dedicated hardware - either PC or appliance based. https://zoom.us/hardware. They can be virtualized - but it is not trivial.

There may be ways of handling what you need in terms of the scheduling-availability piece with just regular Zoom Meeting licenses. But ultimately I think you would still need an amount of licenses equal to the maximum number of concurrent meetings you may want to accommodate. 

How many users/rooms are you trying to accommodate? Do you have any licensed users already?

The idea is to place a maximum of 50 people in 25 rooms (since there will be meetings 2 people per room), but for that reason I try to find out if the most optimal way would be some kind of pool of zoom rooms where they are available 24/7. rooms and it is only a matter of joining as required

Hi DavidQ, were you able to find a solution?

I have the same problem because I have about 35 users but they never exceed 5 concurrent meetings. I would like to have a pool of 5 users that are assigned for their meetings as they are needed. I can't afford to pay zoom for all 35 users.
