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 which is tied to your NDSU credentials. Only the meeting organizer needs a license, not attendees. Zoom 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 capability to record is available.
