<p>HI Olivier,</p>
<p>The ICANN Meetings team has been working with Zoom to correct
those issues and I believe they have worked on them as they would
not have made the switch without doing this work. In the blog
Ashwin writes that the SSAC had been using zoom the entire time.
We need to hear more about this from them and the TTF has been
working closely with Sara Caplis from ICANN's IT team and with our
Liaison Mark Seagal. We plan to have them on a next TTF call to
talk about this switch and this will be a good opportunity to ask
these questions to them and see what answers they can provide</p>
<p>Best,</p>
<p>Judith<br>

Dear Dev,<br>
<br>
thanks for reporting this. A while ago, when Adobe Connect was
faced with security problems, ICANN briefly interrupted the use of
Adobe Connect and replaced it with both the use of Webex and Zoom.
The result was not particularly positive and the vast majority of
people were happy to return to Adobe Connect, which is a lot more
powerful than Webex and at least keeps some form of order to the
order in which people put their hands up. Zoom has some serious
shortfalls for meetings with a large number of people --- and it
does not offer local dial up in many countries around the world. <br>
I am very surprised about this choice.<br>
<br>
How do you all rate Zoom vs. Adobe Connect?<br>
<br>
Kindest regards,<br>
<br>
Olivier<br>

has decided to transition our official remote participation
platform from Adobe Connect to Zoom. In January 2019, we
entered into a contract with Zoom to license its product for
widespread deployment. Plans are being executed now so that
we can completely replace Adobe Connect & PGi by ICANN65
in Marrakech, Morocco. Our intent is to run ICANN65 using
Zoom as our sole web conference platform.</span><br>
