June 2024 Zoom Update

The Summer term is marching along at quite a clip, so now is a great time to take a moment to make sure you have run the most recent Zoom updates so that you are ready for the new adventures ahead! It is important to check this even if you primarily utilize Zoom from the web- as Zoom accesses the on-device client in order to operate your camera, mic, and meeting controls, making it important to have the most recent version to ensure access to the most recent features and security settings. More information on how to update your client can be found via Zoom’s support site:  Update your Zoom Client. Note, if you do not have the Zoom client pinned to your computer desktop or dock, you may need to follow these directions to locate the program on your computer. Don’t want to have to remember to make the updates yourself? You can now enable auto-update.

Zoom Workplace Rebranding

As Zoom integrates AI into their platform- to emphasize the enhanced teamwork and collaboration- they are rebranding to a new moniker: Zoom Workplace. You will begin to see this terminology in various places over the coming months, but rest assured, you will also find all the functionality you have come to love- as well as new features to love as well! For more information on the rebranding, see Zoom’s Zoom Workplace announcement.

  1. When I follow the instructions for updating zoom there is no ‘check for updates’ option when I click on my picture as instructed.

    • If you are having issues with the update process, I would recommend reaching out to the Help Desk via phone or email.
