Video conferencing is a versatile tool to host synchronous discussions, whether for a meeting, a class, or catching up with friends. These quick and easy steps will help you conduct a smooth and productive video meeting.

 Mute yourself when not speaking

If you’re not actively speaking, mute your microphone to make sure ambient sounds such as coworkers, pets, or appliances don’t leak in and distract from the person speaking.

 

 Minimize interruptions

Silence your phone and try to work in a quiet environment, reducing the chances of you or another participant being interrupted mid-discussion.

 

 Reduce or remove distracting imagery

A cluttered or busy background can often be a source of distraction. Two easy fixes are to tidy up the room behind you or use a virtual background feature if available. ������Ƶ provides a selection of neutral background images to use in your video conference here.

 

 Wear headphones

Headphones help to isolate sound, simultaneously making it easier to hear other participants and preventing microphone feedback. A headphone-microphone set is particularly useful for video calls, as it keeps the microphone closer to your mouth to improve audio clarity.

 

 Don’t talk over other participants

Discussions can quickly become difficult to follow with multiple people speaking in a video conference. If you wish to interject, raise your hand or use a “hand-raise” feature/button when available.

 

 Be an active host

Not all participants will follow rules or video conference etiquette. Hosts have the ability to mute or remove participants who are disruptive.

Though Zoom Meetings and Zoom Webinars provide comparable features, there are some differences to be aware of when deciding which tool best suits your need. Below you will find a key feature comparison and a use case comparison chart.

 

Use of Zoom meetings or webinars should also be considered based on the experience you want to provide for your participants. Meetings are more interactive and provide different ways for participants to engage. Webinars provide the host the opportunity to have full control over presenting to a very large group with full permissions to manage the webinar, panelists, and attendees.

Zoom offers the ability to provide live automatic speech recognition (ASR) transcripts in real time for meetings and webinars.
