Why should you switch to Zoho Webinar?

Browser-based

Dealing with the need to download software just when you're ready to start or attend a webinar can be quite a hassle. Moreover, many corporate networks implement firewalls that restrict employees from downloading applications. However, with Zoho Meeting, you'll never annoy your attendees with downloads. Host and join webinars right from your browser without any inconveniences.

Simple UI

Zoho Webinar's user interface is designed to be intuitive and user-friendly, making it easy for both organizers and attendees to navigate and engage with the content. Organize webinars in a matter of seconds. It's simple and neat UI helps you perform faster, whether you're scheduling a webinar or running it live.

Embed registration

Promote your webinar on pages that your target audience is likely to visit, such as websites, blogs, or articles. People who visit your page will be able to learn about your webinar and register for it. They can also join the webinar at the scheduled time without accessing email invitations.

Files tab

The webinar files tab will help you manage and access all of your recordings, PDFs, PPTs, and video files easily. You can upload the materials you want to share during your sessions here even before the session starts.

More time for attendees to answer polls

Not everyone can judge and vote for the right choice in a few seconds. Attendees in your webinar can answer the polls you launch any time during your webinar, so they have all the time they need and you get the most thoughtful and accurate responses.

Lower toll-free rates

Paying too much for toll-free numbers on top of your account subscription can be exhausting. Zoho Meeting allows you to use toll-free numbers at lower rates so your attendees can join sessions using their phones from places where Internet connectivity is poor.

Live streaming webinars on Social Media

Host live video webinars with real-time video feeds, and live stream in Facebook, LinkedIN, YouTube and any custom streaming platform to maximize your social media exposure and connect with a much larger audience.
