About Zoom Rooms

Zoom Rooms is an easy-to-use platform for creating physical meeting spaces with high quality audio and video. As a component of Zoom, the popular collaboration platform, it turns any meeting room into a teleconference workspace. These workspaces seamlessly connect with other Zoom Rooms and Zoom clients anywhere in the world. Streamlined presentation, desktop, file sharing and structured text chat are among the features that Zoom brings to its users, in addition to crystal-clear audio and video.

Yealink has partnered with Zoom to bring you Zoom Rooms kits that come fully integrated with the service and have preinstalled Zoom Rooms software. Users do need a subscription to Zoom Rooms to use the service.
