How to Integrate Zoom Video Conferencing with Outlook

As my clients may already know, I'm a huge fan of process, people, systems and especially apps integrations. One of my favourite app integrations is Zoom Video Conferencing with Outlook.

If you use Zoom Video Conferencing and Office 365, make sure you download and install the Zoom-Outlook integration file. With app integration, you will save time and be more efficient as you no longer need to create a new meeting invite in Zoom & "Copy the Invite" from Zoom into an Outlook Meeting Request.  It can all be done in Outlook.

For those who may not have heard of Zoom, it is now one of the leaders in video & web conferencing.  As consultants and project managers, we use many video conferencing platforms and programs such as GoToMeeting, Webex and more recently Google Hangouts and Skype for Business for clients who standardize with G-Suite and #Office365.

While we are system agnostic and cater to our clients, we tend to use Zoom Video conferencing for larger project teams because of its one-click ease of use for the host and attendees. Definitely do check Zoom out if you haven't!

I hope you find this integration just as convenient and valuable as I did.
