Hosting webinars

[simond9x]

I work for a charity organisation which hosts monthly webinars. Our attendee audience is usually around the 300 mark. Recently, our admin people changed our Zoom license (I'm not quite sure why). The current state of our organisation's Zoom licenses is as follows:

Zoom Workplace Pro                              1 available, 9 used

Zoom Webinars - 500 attendees       0 available, 1 used

There are 3 of us who host webinars in rotation. Am I correct in assuming.....

1. The person to whom the '500 attendees' license is assigned will definitely be able to continue to host webinars?

2. The other two of us will need to purchase additional '500 attendees' licenses?  ie. the license is for an individual not for the whole organisation?

Many thanks,

Simon

Welcome to the Zoom Community, @simond9x.

If everyone that needs to host the monthly webinars are Licensed (Pro accounts), you only need one Webinar license. The Webinar license owner (to whom the license is assigned) should be responsible for scheduling all webinars. Other licensed users on the organization’s account can be designated as Alt Hosts, allowing them to start any webinar to which they are assigned as Alt Hosts. 

See this Zoom Support article for additional details; search for the word Webinar:

Bottom line: one Webinar license should be sufficient for your needs.
