Zoom launches exciting features for its users

As we enter the holiday season, we’re excited to bring you a bundle of new updates and features! In our latest product update, we’re providing a range of features to help you add your own personal touch to your digital events and take your customer service efforts to the next level. We’ve also extended the ability to enable automatic updates in the Zoom client so you can access the latest and greatest features from Zoom as soon as they're available! 

Here are the rest of this month’s updates:

Zoom Meetings

We’ve added new features to help you host a more frictionless meeting, engage with attendees, and get the most out of your recorded content. 

Enhanced slide control

Because the presenter isn’t always the one controlling a slide show, you can now select multiple people to control the movement of slides in a presentation. With enhanced slide control, presenters no longer have to ask another attendee to move the presentation forward, streamlining the presentation experience.

Polling enhancements

Meeting and webinar hosts now have more options for creating polls, including ranked responses, matching, short and long answers, and fill in the blank, creating more opportunities for gaining feedback and insights from team members. This same functionality can be used for quizzes, creating more effective experiences for students, onboarding sessions, or lunch-and-learn events.

Additional watermark settings

To help you get the most out of your recorded content and avoid distracting watermarks, you can now set their size and placement. You can also enable watermarks by default and customize them via the web portal prior to the meeting.

Attendance Status (“Has everyone joined”)

Streamline the start of your Zoom Meetings with Attendance Status, which allows meeting hosts and co-hosts with Google and Outlook calendar integrations to view who has accepted or declined the meeting invite and see whether they have joined.

Zoom Events

After the release of so many exciting new conference capabilities for Zoom Events, we have more features that allow hosts to further customize their virtual event experiences.
