Latest Updates: Request remote access, filter Q&A and other enhancements

Hi there,
In the last couple of months, we released two useful features, made some good enhancements, and fixed major bugs to turn Zoho Meeting into an even more efficient tool for conducting online meetings and webinars. Take a look at what's new.

Features

Filter unanswered questions in webinar Q&A: During your webinar Q&A, it's easy to miss some attendee questions while providing multiple answers as quickly as possible. To avoid this, you can now view all unanswered questions using a checkbox in the Q&A tab.
 
Request control: Participants of a meeting can now request remote access to the presenter's screen for real-time collaboration or troubleshooting. Learn more.
 
Enhancements
  • To prevent users from joining sessions without audio, we introduced a pop-up to inform users to enable audio if it is not detected. 
  • Webinars scheduled in Zoho Meeting will now be synced with Zoho CRM if you have the Zoho CRM (webinar) integration enabled.
  • The same meeting or webinar key can now be used across all domains (.eu, .au, .com, etc.) to join meetings and webinars.
  • While trying to screen-share during meetings and webinars, a pop-up will now inform Mac OS Catalina users if they have not enabled screen sharing in System Preferences.
  • Zoho Meeting Desktop app is now supported in Mac OS X Yosemite, version 10.10 and above.
  • We've made adjustments to reduce data consumption on mobile devices during live screen-sharing in meetings and webinars.

Bug fixes
  • We have fixed the bug preventing screen-sharing for Catalina users joining from desktop app.
  • Issues faced by users who have integrated Zoho Meeting with Zoho Marketing Plus have been fixed.
  • We've fixed the bug causing same co-organizer names to incorrectly display for multiple webinars in the webinar details page.
  • The contacts auto-suggestion feature in the Add participants field for scheduling meetings has been fixed.
  • The issue causing webinar registration to remain open for all even after the webinar ended has been resolved.
  • The bug preventing Zoho One users in the trial edition from migrating their organization members after moving to the paid edition  has been fixed.
  • Some presenters using external web cameras were automatically switched to default web camera after disabling and later enabling the camera from the UI. This issue has been resolved.
  • Scheduled meetings and webinars were not getting synced to participants' Google calendar because the .ics file for Google calendar was not getting added in automated emails. This has been fixed.
  • The chat facility to contact the Zoho Meeting team in live meetings and webinars windows seemed unavailable in a few domains. This issue has been resolved.
  • In some cases, even after a presenter enabled "Mute all participants" in a meeting, new attendees joining the meeting remained unmuted. This issue has been resolved.

Try out these updates and let us know your feedback. We hope you enjoy using Zoho Meeting.
