New Updates to Zoom Client

New and Enhanced Features

• Persistent non-verbal feedback: Non-verbal feedback has returned to the previous behavior in which they are persistent until the attendee or host removes them. This includes the Yes, No, Slower, and Faster options.
• Block or allow only participants from specific countries/regions: When scheduling meetings, the option “Approve or deny entry to users from certain regions and countries” will be available under Advanced Options. Host can either allow only participants from specific counties/regions to join, or block all participants from specific counties/regions. This feature is also available in the Zoom Scheduler for Chrome and Zoom Scheduler for Firefox.

New Updates to Zoom Web

User Features

• Search users when adding alternative hosts: While scheduling meetings or webinars, users can add alternative hosts by searching through internal users instead of manually entering the full email address.
• Track pending participant abuse reports: After reports for abuse are made using the client, administrators can view pending reports and add more details.

Web Client Features

• Join meetings with registration: Users can now join meetings that require registration. Previously, meetings that require registration prompted users to install the desktop client.

Changes to Existing Features

• Enhancement to alternative host feature: If the original host joins after the alternative host, the original host will always regain control of the meeting and become host. In addition, the alternative host will change roles. If the co-host feature is enabled for the meeting, the alternative host will become a co-host. If the co-host feature is disabled, the alternative host becomes a normal participant.
