Hosts of webinar events have a greater control over presenting, attendees, and panelists and can reach a larger audience. Hosts and attendees have more chances to interact and engage at meeting events.
It is important to keep in mind that the main difference between a Webinar and a Meeting event is the extent to which attendees can participate in the event. In addition to allowing hosts to present to a much larger audience, webinars provide hosts with more control over presenting, attending, and participating as a panelist in their presentations.
Zoom meetings can be divided into 50 separate sessions with breakout rooms. Splitting attendees into these separate sessions can either be done automatically or manually, or participants can select and enter breakout sessions as they wish.
Can you use Zoom without an account? As a participant in Zoom Meetings, you do not need a Zoom account. Taking part in a meeting without creating an account is possible if someone invites you.
