Zoom Improves Webinar Capacity for Hosting Up to a Million Participants
With the recent considerable tech improvement, Zoom can now accommodate one million participants in a single session. For big organizations, political campaigns, and entertainment events, that significant update can be a great solution.
Recently, large calls on Zoom were held by political fundraising campaigns, including those for Vice President Kamala Harris, bringing in audiences of up to 200,000 people. The demand for webinar capacity needed to be increased, and Zoom responded.
They used to handle webinars with up to 100,000 participants. With the latest improvement, they provide several levels to accommodate various event sizes, with options for 10K, 50K, 100K, 250K, 500K, and up to one million participants, according to the most recent upgrade. These packages are only offered in the US and include assistance from Zoom's Event Services team.
Smita Hashim, Chief Product Officer of Zoom, called the expansion a game-changer for businesses trying to reach large audiences. "Now event organizers have the flexibility and power to host truly interactive experiences on an unprecedented scale," says she.
Although political campaigns have been among the first to use this enhanced capability, other industries are anticipated to make use of the new features. For example, public sector organizations may do extensive town halls and community outreach, businesses can hold worldwide all-hands meetings, and celebrities can engage with followers through massive virtual events or gigs.
Now let's see how much it is. A webinar with one million participants costs $100,000, but an event with 10,000 people costs $9,000. Additionally, Zoom provides multiple payment choices, such as pay-per-attendee, pay-per-event, and pay-per-month plans, which simplify the process for enterprises to select the right package for their requirements.
Even though they are quite expensive even for companies, Zoom's new packages offer an alternative source of savings for the business. Online meetings save a lot of time and money. This strategy might help Zoom restore its footing in case of the need for large-scale virtual events, especially after Zoom’s shares fall from $560 to $60.
Zoom webinars have an amazing capacity besides several features that improve the user experience. With zero delay and high-class audio and video, the platform guarantees everyone's participation in real-time. Webinars, with virtual name tags and branded backdrops, may be readily set up to seem professional. This makes them a great alternative for both hosts and participants.
Along with Zoom webinars, users may investigate advanced choices like Zoom Sessions and Zoom Events, which address all aspects of virtual event requirements. Zoom continues to be a preferred option for hosting events of any size thanks to these new technologies.
Stay tuned.
