This feature guide will give you a detailed explanation of the features available in Zoho Meeting in comparison with the features in Microsoft Teams.

Record meetings

Microsoft Teams supports recording and store meetings on the cloud.

Record your meetings to revisit them whenever you want. Play recordings online, share them with team members who couldn't attend or download recordings for offline use.

To view your meeting recordings, click My Recordings in your Zoho Meeting account.

Recording storage based on number

Meeting recordings in Teams are stored in Microsoft Streams cloud storage, and storage space varies according to different plans. Microsoft Teams will not store recordings if the storage space is exceeded.

If you are a manager or team lead, Zoho Meeting makes it easier than ever to manage your team members from an organization account.
