V 1.95: VoIP calling, invitation with RSVP, Mac support enhancements

We've been working hard to rebuild Zoho Meeting from the ground up. The new Zoho Meeting has better reliability, usability, and features including VoIP calling, WebRTC audio conferencing, invitation with RSVP, multi-monitor support for Mac, and more.
 
WebRTC based audio conferencing
We are moving to the latest WebRTC technology for audio conferencing. Now you can add web audio to your meeting, allowing your participants to join the conference through the internet. No one has to spend the meeting uncomfortably stuck to their phone to hear what's going on. At present, this will automatically be enabled for your instant meetings. Web audio is compatible with the latest versions of Google Chrome, Firefox, and Opera.
 
Zoho Meeting and Zoho Assist are separate services now
Web meeting and remote support are now separate entities. You have to log in to https://meeting.zoho.com to start an online meeting and share your screen with your participants. To troubleshoot and assist your remote customers, log in to https://assist.zoho.com.
As a part of this, we have removed the remote support feature from Zoho Meeting desktop plugin for windows. You can download the Zoho Assist desktop plugin from https://assist.zoho.com/assist-setup and use it for your remote support and unattended sessions.
 
Enhanced calendar events
If you use a mail client that has mail-to-calendar integration (like Outlook, Zoho Mail, Gmail, or Yahoo Mail), your meetings will be automatically added to your schedule from the meeting invitation email. Your meeting participants can RSVP to your invitation, and you'll be notified that they're planning to attend. If you make updates to a meeting, they'll be reflected in your calendar too. So feel free to track your meetings from your calendar, knowing that you won't be missing any important information.
 
Meeting for Mac gets enhancements
The new Zoho Meeting is completely supported by Mac OS Sierra. The new multi-monitor support feature allows you to choose which monitor to share with your participants.
 
ActiveX viewer is replaced with HTML viewer
Windows native toolbar for the participant (ActiveX viewer) is now replaced with completely browser based HTML toolbar and your participants can join your meeting right from their browser itself. Participant need not download or install any application to join the meeting.
 
Upcoming and past meetings
We've tweaked the user interface in the web application to give you a better view of all of the meetings you've scheduled. Now you can focus on your upcoming meetings with a more streamlined view, and past meetings stay in their own section on the home page.
 
Feature enhancements
The control request notification has been changed from a blinking icon to a popup.
Image quality for Mac OS screen sharing has been improved.
Application launching in both Mac OS and Windows has been improved.

  • Misalignment of elements in the desktop plugin for Windows 10 users is fixed.
  • Minor issues in sharing screens with multiple monitors in Windows are fixed.
  • The issue preventing users from signing up for the 30-day trial from the Windows desktop plugin has been fixed.
  • The broken Buy button in the Windows desktop plugin is fixed.
  • The issue preventing the Windows desktop shortcut from being created while installing the plugin is fixed.
  • Starting a scheduled meeting from desktop plugin now opens the correct presenter toolbar, not the participant toolbar.
  • The misaligned Cancel button in the Share My Screen dialog from the participant toolbar is fixed.
  • The issue causing participants to be unable to connect to the meeting after restarting the session is fixed.
  • Minor bugs related to meeting reminder email notifications have been fixed.
  • The return key is better supported in the Invite Participant dialog for Mac OS.
