Zoom and its Relevance Now

Zoom has become a household name in the global industry now, especially as it became an essential tool during the pandemic to keeping up with remote work and continuing online classes. The app received many updates for the public to use, which are necessary for many users. 

One of its updates featured e-signature capabilities to sign a document online and have it submitted to those that need it immediately.

The company also updates its products, especially with the bug that pestered macOS users, which kept the microphone on at all times, even when users turned it off during the conference. Some go on mute to keep themselves from being heard by the other participants, and now, Zoom has already removed this bug to keep them on mute. 

There are a variety of video conferencing applications available online, but Zoom is one of the most famous and preferred by corporations to hold their meetings virtually. Now, there are more features and products available via the app, and the new Zoom Whiteboard will help more with the accessibility of users for having a virtual platform.
