Zoom
Zoom unifies cloud video conferencing, simple online meetings, and group messaging into one easy-to-use platform. It offers video, audio, and wireless screen-sharing experience across multiple platforms.
Overview
Zoom is a great tool to conduct remote meetings. NDSU has a campus-wide license for all students, faculty and staff, and are tied to your NDSU credentials. A license is needed for the organizer only, not for attendees. Zoom is easy to use, and can be used on many devices or platforms. A user can install the app on their desktop and mobile device. Meetings can hold up to 300 people and recordings are available.
