What is Zoom?

It is the most popular video conferencing platform that you can use to attend business meetings, seminars, and also live sessions.

Creating the account is not necessary for running zoom, and you can efficiently operate zoom on any software such as IOS, Mac, and on your phone.

Zoom is not old software; it was launched on 12th October 2011 and is mainly used by companies to conduct online meetings, teaching sessions, tutorials, and webinars with employees. But, when the Covid-19 pandemic came in 2020, everywhere there were restrictions for going outside, and schools, offices, and businesses were closed. Zoom was the most helpful software, as most schools used the zoom to conduct classes. People in business and job use this software for conducting regular meetings.

Other platforms also provide video conferencing services, such as google meet and skype. But zoom is the preferable software as it provides more facilities than other software, such as a high number of participants at one time and a whiteboard facility, which other platforms don't provide.
