As mentioned in the earlier post, we are now moving to the new WebRTC technology. In the recent updates to this new version, we have added some most awaited features, redesigned the toolbars, enhanced the usability, introduced desktop plugin for Mac, and fixed some bugs.
Redesigned the presenter and participant toolbars
Those who are already using the beta version might have noticed a complete makeover of the meeting toolbar which has better participant listing with change presenters option, video feed with controls, recording, audio conferencing with international dial-in numbers listed, instant chat, options to invite new participant instantly, screen/application sharing.
Complete UI makeover for web application
We have done a complete UI makeover for the web application which you would see once you log into the Zoho Meeting service. We strive to make the user experience pleasant for you and have redesigned schedule meeting, meeting details, meetings list on the home page, manage organization and settings.
Added video on/off controls in toolbar
Along with the other usability enhancements, we have added the on/off controls to toggle sharing of your webcam and mute/unmute option for your microphone in the video feed box. Also, you can hide the video feed if required, without affecting the video conferencing flow.
Added change presenters option
The most awaited change presenters option is now available in the new version. You can choose from the participants' list to change presenter, allowing that participant to share the screen/application with just a click of the button.

Report on opportunities showing only the last note added.
Hi I need to create a report that shows the most recent note added to each opportunity. This is so management can see what the latest update is according to the assigned salesperson. One workaround is to use the status field but this implies added manual work and mistakes as the salesperson would have to copy the existing status to a note before adding the latest status... otherwise the activity history would be lost. My current workaround is a report on Notes with Opportunities as the related module.
