Multi-video feed in webinars, custom domain options, and our integration with MS Outlook

Hi there,
We hope you're doing well. With your help, we have been able to release many useful features and enhancements in 2020. We, the Zoho Meeting team, would like to thank you all for the feedback, support, and encouragement you've given as we worked to scale Zoho Meeting into a fully fledged web conferencing software for remote work. Let's take a look at the previous month's product updates.

Webinar updates
Features
  • Multi-video feed: Organizers and co-organizers can now share their live video feeds to webinar attendees along with the webinar presentation.
  • Search, sort, and filter:  You can now search and sort your webinar attendee list. You can also filter the attendees who have raised their hands or have been allowed to talk in the webinar.

Enhancements
  • New notifications:  
    • If a user tries to speak while their microphone is muted, Zoho Meeting will now show a notification to remind them they're muted.
    • Attendees are notified when their question is answered in the Q&A tab.
    • Organizers and co-organizers are notified for new raised hands, and attendees are notified when the organizer lowers the raised hand.
  • We have added UI improvements for better user experience. 
Bug Fixes
Inactive links: An issue that rendered links shared in the Q&A tab non-clickable has been fixed.

  • Membership authentication for presenters: Only users invited and approved by the admin as organization members can be added as presenters of meetings.
  • Presenters of a meeting are now displayed as 'Hosts' in the Attendees list.

  • Editing/deleting recurring meetings: When single instances of recurring meetings were edited or deleted from mobile, it affected all the meetings in the series. This has been resolved.
