Though Zoom provides options for you to get more social with your attendees, your average webinar has one or a few people speaking to an audience. Typically, webinar attendees do not interact with one another. Webinars are ideal for large audiences or events that are open to the public. Think of webinars like a virtual lecture hall or auditorium. Zoom meetings are ideal for hosting more interactive sessions where you’ll want to have lots of audience participation or break your session into smaller groups. Attendees in webinars, can not rename themselves as well. They have the ability to interact via Q&A, Chat, and answering polling questions. Webinars are designed so that the host and any designated panelists can share their video, audio and screen. 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. The Meeting and Webinar platforms offer similar features and functionality but have some key differences.
