The standard Zoom license at QMUL allows you to create meetings with up to 300 participants. If you want to host larger events you should raise a ticket on the ServiceDesk and request an add-on to your account. The types of add-on you can request are:

  • Large meeting – 500
  • Large meeting – 1000
  • Webinar – 500
  • Webinar – 1000

There are a limited number of these add-ons available.

Meetings versus Webinars

Meetings are designed to be a collaborative event with all participants being able to screen share, turn on their video and audio, and see who else is in attendance.

Webinars are designed so that the host and any designated panelists can share their video, audio and screen. Webinars allow view-only attendees. They have the ability to interact via Q&A, Chat, and answering polling questions. The host can also unmute the attendees. Attendees in webinars, can not rename themselves as well.

Find out more about the difference between meetings and webinars on the Zoom website.
