What You Need To Know About Using Zoom

Zoom is user friendly, offers many cool collaboration tools, and it’s easy to connect to calendars on Google or Outlook.

You can join a Zoom meeting in one of three ways, but just note that the host will have to start it up (or enable others to ‘join before host’) before you can join. Also note that you don’t need a sign in to join a meeting, as long as you have the meeting ID.

 

1) Through a link via email invitation	Once you receive an email invitation from the meeting host, click on the link in the email, and just like that, you’ll be taken to the meeting.
2) Via the Zoom app already on your desktop or mobile phone	Open the Zoom app, and click on ‘Join a Meeting.’ Enter in the Meeting ID that was displayed in the email invitation. Choose to come into the meeting with computer audio.
3) Via telephone dial-in (info found in invitation)	Check the email from host for a dial-in number.
