Lämmchen 6 Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 Do you use Zoom for meetings or to just gather with friends and family? Have you found any glitches in the software? I use it weekly for family meetings and it seems there is a software update almost every time I log in. Kind of like Skype How do you feel about the special backgrounds you can use? I haven't done it yet but thought it looked fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
will88chang 12 Posted June 9, 2020 Share Posted June 9, 2020 Heard of them but never used it. Why use it if you can use skype or even discord allows you to do video calls now and not to mention that discord offers more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demon_skeith 28 Posted June 12, 2020 Share Posted June 12, 2020 I never heard of it, but everyone being stuck at home has made the name pop up a lot lately. Seems like a decent free service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ash 26 Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 I haven't used it yet because I haven't had a need for it. It's funny because a lot of people never knew about Zoom but it just randomly became very popular when the Coronavirus stuff started to happy. Some family members use it and it seems to be good for a free service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

22_22 0 Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 I had to use zoom for many of my classes and I probably still will come September. I hate virtual learning but I guess zoom has been better than nothing. I finally started to enjoy using zoom when I had some calls with my friends. We would catch up and play games together to make the covid-19 pandemic a little more bearable. You must try the backgrounds out @LämmchenThey are indeed fun!

Ash 26 Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 I've had to start using it a few times for work meetings but that has been it so far. I'm not sure what platform we will be using for university stuff yet although it might be Teams instead of Zoom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demon_skeith 28 Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 Funny enough I had to use this service last month for a job interview, which I scored and got! Now we often use Teams for viewing since we can't have too many people in the office. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teams is great although I do wish that we could see who has joined a meeting/call that has already started before we join it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've searched for it online and it doesn't seem to be a thing. When a meeting has already started, there is nothing next to the Join button. Can't find the ability to see who has already joined anywhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demon_skeith 28 Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 Should be on the screen, I had one the other night and on the bottom of the share screen it showed everyone on unless the one who started it disallows it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isn't that once you have joined the meeting already though? I mean before you actually join it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ash 26 Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 Of course. But if they have joined the meeting and it is ongoing, it would be nice to see who has already joined before we actually join Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
