10 Software Categories in High Demand to Support Remote Work

Throughout my time at G2, traffic patterns on G2.com category pages have been one of the most significant data points to monitor. Time and again, the changes in those patterns have proven a good indicator of emerging trends and a strong reflection of change in software markets. The current global crisis caused by COVID-19 is, unsurprisingly, creating a large shift to tools that support remote work.

Zoom. We all know this platform thanks to the pandemic, however, it is very helpful for people's communication. This application allows multiple users in larger numbers to connect to a virtual call or video conference. They can also discuss in the video conference through a message forum in which the call participants can take part.

Question on: Zoom Workplace

How to view participants with ease while sharing screen?

Sometime it becomes very difficult to view all participants while sharing the screen. It is important because while taking a class you have to control the audience and you can't do it without seeing the participants.

If you are a classroom instructor, I, first of all, suggest that you have four monitors. You then configure zoom for two monitors and since the participants' dialog is modeless, you may place it on the third monitor. The fourth monitor is for you to use to manage a shared document or shared desktop. However, I much prefer not to share the screen but rather to share a document on the cloud, that way your participants can listen to you, view the document as you drag and drop changes to it, and be totally interactive with you, this also reduces your bandwidth. If only have a single monitor, then I suppose you must exit full-screen mode and partition your desktop real estate appropriately. But really, a few low quality cheap used monitors will suffice to make your Zoom class better organized and easy to mange.

Having read the question and the answers (up to this point): 1. I can see the value of having more than two monitors; although, that can get costly. 2. The concept of a "shared" document that they can watch as you present adds a nice layer of interaction that I'll have to try sometime. Another route that you could use is to have an individual dedicated to monitoring the audience and chat. That way, you as the instructor, can focus on the content. This individual in Zoom can be set as a co-host, so they could manage things like turning mics on and off and letting the instructor know about appropriate questions. This doesn't have to be a dedicated individual (although that is nice). It could just as easily be someone in the class that is strong enough with the technology to also be able to keep up with the content presented.

Question on: Zoom Workplace

calendar appointments are confusing

When I send calendar appointments to colleagues that are not familiar with zoom, the amount of information is overwhelming. The only thing I would like to send besides the date and time is the link to the meeting. All the area codes and phone numbers are too much of a distraction.

You could just send a google calendar invite with a copy/paste link directly to the zoom meeting? It’s an extra step but it take away all that additional text you’re talking about

Answered: Alex Potter on November 12, 2020

Its simple, the Zoom app creates an outlook invite. Just delete what you dont want before sending

I always just grab the link to the meeting as well as the id number and password and send that in an email.

When you create the meeting in the schedule, select computer audio only- it won't allow, nor create phone numbers.
