Zoom meeting integration with Eventzilla

Eventzilla provides integration with Zoom. Using this integration you can create and manage Zoom meetings and webinars within Eventzilla's Online Event Page.

You can create all your Zoom sessions without ever having to leave Eventzilla. And similarly, your attendees too will be sent secure links to join /access your Zoom sessions seamlessly and securely.

You do not have to worry about jumping between Eventzill and Zoom accounts, remembering meeting ids, and dial-in details and your attendees too will get access to all their sessions in one place.
