Zoom Basic Account Changes
|
|
For all those using Zoom for mentoring or meetings, Zoom has recently changed their basic (free) product to limit all meetings to 40 minutes. For everyone using the basic (free) version of Zoom, our recommendation at this time is to move to using Google meet. On the Support Center we have guides to help you on Using Google Meet with @scorevolunteer.org email addresses and on Switching from Zoom to Google Meet. If you need to add Zoom Pro licenses for your chapter, Volunteer Leaders can approve adding licenses from chapter or district budgets at the SCORE discounted rate of $12/month per user. Chapter Chairs or District Directors should send the email address that needs to be updated to Zoom Pro license to morgan.martin@score.org and we will set it up for your account and automated billing.
Please make sure if you are using a Zoom Paid License for SCORE you are using an @scorevolunteer.org email. SCORE will not be able to support other domains, and you will not receive the discounted rates.
This does not impact the chapters/districts using their ZOOM Pro account for local webinars and that they should continue to do this as it is integrated into Engage.
