And this makes it even easier than before for mobile workers to participate and be active presenters from their devices.

Call health: With call health, users may immediately identify if their network or device is causing issues with the call in progress. The metrics will update every 15 seconds, and provide the user with information about roundtrip delay, packet loss and other important information.

Auto-recording of meetings: Another great feature coming to meetings, is the capability to auto-record. This is configured pr meeting and is controlled by the end user. The recording will start once the first user logs into the meeting. Make sure users are trained on this feature, and it can be a good idea to let the participants know the meeting is automatically recorded.

Large gallery pagination: The large gallery currently supports up to 49 simultaneous streams. This is being increased to 98 by enabling pagination. Users can swap between the two pages of video.
