[Lex Computer & Tech Group/LCTG] Zoom software updates

Tue Nov 21 01:24:08 PST 2023

I use the exact same software for both free and paid accounts I don't think there are two separate versions of Zoom software depending on whether or not you have paid money or not.

When I open my zoom software and login as me it's a free account and that's what I get with the software and I can check for updates like I showed in my video. If I log out and log in with my user group of Sarasota account it is a paid account and then I have all of the features associated with that account. There is no separate software program for free and paid.

I can host a 50 user meeting with the paid Sarasota User Group account or be stuck with a little 40 minute video meeting with the personal free account that I have. It all depends on who you log in as that's all.

Watch the video.
