Why Teams and not Zoom?
We have been asked by a number of you why we on the IET Scotland South West are using Teams rather than Zoom. There are a number of good reasons for this, but the two main ones are:
- We are aware that Zoom is not permitted, or is even blocked, on some company's IT equipment.
- Teams is able to cope with lower broadband speeds, down to as low as 0.5Mb.
