Backstage

New

• Video breakouts
  Released on April 7, the new video breakouts now allows up to 50 participants to join simultaneously, all using their webcam. Simply update your the Agenda and Sponsor modules on your workspace to enable the new video breakouts.
  Participants can now see who is on the call, add them to their contacts, and start a private conversation with them.
  Coming soon: From Backstage, you'll soon be able to add collaborative tools such as Miro whiteboards or Google docs, for your participants to directly interact with.
