Webinar CoOrganizers

 

Enhanced screen sharing quality

We have made some tweaks to the screen sharing feature to improve the quality of the presenter's screen shared at the participant's end. I'm sure your meeting participants and webinar attendees will view your screen in excellent quality.

Choosing external audio/video devices

We already have an option to choose audio devices from the list of external audio devices connected to the computer. Now we have extended this feature to video devices also. If you have external video devices connected, you can select the webcam you would like to share with your meeting or webinar participants.

Automatic region based dial-in number display

To enhance the user experience for phone conferencing, we are now displaying the default phone number based on the country from where the presenter/participant join the session. You can view your country dial-in number( if available), conference code and pin just by choosing the Phone audio option while starting/joining the session.

Mailers enhancement

We have redesigned all the mailers sent to the presenter, participants and registrants of the meeting/webinar for better readability and usability. 

Analytics ready notification

We have now added a notification email for the webinar presenter on the webinar analytics and reports are ready to view and export. 

Drag and relocate the video feed

You can now drag the video feed in the presenter and participant's application to relocate anywhere inside the application. You don't have to worry that the shared screen behind the video feed getting hidden for the participants. They can just move around the video feed.

Speed enhancements

We have extended dedicated media servers to few more regions across the globe. Your participants can see improvements in screen sharing speed and this removes the unnecessary lag in both screen sharing and conference using computer's mic and speaker.

Phone audio enhancements

We have tuned the phone conference to improve the audio quality. We have also increased the volume of the voice through phone and you can see a betterment in the audio clarity during the conference.

Chrome Extension changes 

When you try to start screen sharing from the Google Chrome browser without the extension, it will take you to the Google Chrome Webstore where you can add the Zoho Meeting extension. This has been implemented with regards to GDPR compliance.

Enhanced video webinar scalability  

We have now fine-tuned the webcam video streaming to enhance the scalability of the video webinar on a normal bandwidth network of the attendees. This also reduces the bandwidth usage and improved video streaming without any fuzzy or broken video frames.
