    Dear Sarah,<br>
    <br>
    in the recent "Adobe Connect scare", ICANN stopped using Adobe
    Connect for over a month and I guess this provided us with the
    ability to test other systems, not just as a test, but in a
    production environment. It turned out that the two systems that were
    used as an emergency back-up were ill-suited for the job as they
    missed several features that Adobe Connect has.<br>
    Webex came out worse. It seems that as soon as you use it with
    documents, chat, and several people on the call, the thing just
    doesn't work well and ends up frustrating everyone to end up hating
    it. Zoom came out okay but is missing several features, if only the
    ability to see all of the hands up in the correct order, and by
    someone else than the host.<br>
    <br>
    In the past we also tested Slack as a potential replacement for
    Adobe Connect, when ICANN was looking at alternatives. Again, that
    had many limitations which made our life harder in a production
    environment.<br>
    <br>
    Kindest regards,<br>
    <br>
    Olivier<br>

          During the first public forum at the just concluded meeting in

          alternatives for AdobeConnect. I believe looking at them can
          help us see what features to request for in AdobeConnect if we
