A waiting room in Zoom is a virtual space where participants wait before being admitted to a meeting. It is a feature that allows the host to control who enters the meeting and when. When a participant joins a meeting, they are placed in the waiting room until the host admits them. This feature is particularly useful for large meetings or webinars where the host wants to manage the flow of participants.
To enable the waiting room in Zoom, the host needs to go to the settings and select the "In Meeting (Advanced)" tab. From there, they can toggle on the waiting room feature. Once enabled, the host can customize the waiting room experience by adding a personalized message or instructions for participants. The waiting room feature is available for both free and paid Zoom accounts.
The waiting room feature in Zoom is important for several reasons. Firstly, it allows the host to control who enters the meeting, which is particularly important for sensitive or confidential meetings. Secondly, it helps to prevent unwanted participants from joining the meeting, such as trolls or hackers. Finally, it provides a professional and organized experience for participants, as they are placed in a virtual queue before being admitted to the meeting.
