Earlier this year, only big businesses with multiple offices and remote workers were familiar with Zoom. Fast forward a few months later, and it’s one of the most widely used video conferencing tools thanks to COVID-19.
So while this video is a bit dated, I wanted to share some tips and tools you may not know to maximize using Zoom for video conferencing.?
