Comparing Zoom Meetings, Webinars and Live Streaming

When choosing a platform for your event, you'll want to start by considering the experience you want to provide for your participants.

• Meetings are more interactive and provide different ways for participants to engage.
• Webinars provide the host the opportunity to have full control over presenting to a very large group with full permissions to manage the webinar, panelists, and attendees.
• Live Streaming when you expect more attendees than your Zoom Meeting or Webinar allows, and you don’t require interactive features or control over the chat feature.

Review the guidance below to help you decide what Zoom platform best meets your need. As part of our enterprise license, we currently offer a webinar license for up to 500 attendees.
