Two important actions to take:
- Secure data from the Zoom cloud:
All staff and students who still have recordings, transcripts, notes and other data in this environment and wish to keep them, must download the files and store them elsewhere. For example to OneDrive or Panopto. See below a brief instructions on how to move recordings to Panopto.
Recordings stored on your PC (for example in OneDrive) will remain accessible.
2. Convert scheduled meetings to Microsoft Teams:
Zoom Meetings via Canvas will no longer be available after March 31. Regular Zoom meetings will no longer be accessible after 1 May. It is important to transfer these meetings to Microsoft Teams before that date. Staff and students can schedule a Teams meeting directly from Microsoft Teams or Outlook. Guests without a Teams license can always participate in a meeting as guests.
Basic Zoom account
Free Zoom (Basic) accounts allow unlimited 1-on-1 meetings, but group meetings (3+ participants) are capped at 40 minutes and 100 participants. Key limitations include no cloud recording (local only), lack of user management, and limited advanced features like polling or streaming.
