New and enhanced features

  • General features
    • Kiosk virtual receptionist ability to dial Zoom Phone 
      Administrators can configure the Kiosk virtual receptionist to call phone number(s) through the Zoom Phone integration.
    • Support for Room Controls on Zoom Rooms for Touch
      Users can tap a Room Controls icon on the Zoom Rooms for Touch display to utilize native room controls
  • In-meeting features
    • Support Smart Meeting Summary
      Hosts can initiate an AI generated summarization for the current meeting directly from a Zoom Room. Hosts will be prompted to enter an email address on the Zoom Room that the summary can be sent to. The ability to receive the meeting summary can be restricted to the host alone, the host along with users on their same account, or extended to all attendees of the meeting, including invitees outside of their organization. All meeting participants will be notified that the summary is being generated, and the meeting host can stop the summary at any time, if necessary.
    • Ask AI Companion questions about the meeting
      Zoom’s AI Companion transcribes and analyzes the verbal discussions in Zoom Meetings, allowing participants to ask the AI Companion questions about the meeting content that has been discussed and receive a response based on the meeting analysis thus far. Admins can choose to have this option remain visible in the meeting toolbar, even when the feature is disabled in web settings. Meeting hosts can start and stop AI Companion from a Zoom Room for other participants. Participants in the Zoom Room itself cannot ask AI companion questions. 
    • Enhanced captioning control for hosts/co-host 
      Hosts can have greater control of captioning use and the speaking language for the meeting. If enabled in web settings, captions can only be enabled by the host. Participants in the meeting can request captioning be enabled, which prompts the host (and co-hosts) to enable captioning and choose a speaking language.
    • Support for breakout rooms with end-to-end encryption 
      Breakout rooms can be used in Zoom Rooms meetings with end-to-end encryption enabled. This feature must be enabled by Zoom support.  
    • Updated recording notice
  • Management features
    • Limit network bandwidth for Zoom Rooms 
      Administrators can limit the amount of bandwidth allocated for audio and video in Zoom Rooms. These policies are intended for local networks known to have limitations at specific locations.
    • Configure video encoding and decoding options 
      Administrators can configure hardware acceleration, de-noise, and super resolution settings, depending on the hardware device. Zoom recommends that these options only be changed at the direction of Zoom support.
