Key insights from Wainhouse Research on Zoom Whiteboard

With the Whiteboard in Zoom, you can ideate, collaborate, and bring your next big idea to life. Wainhouse Research has recently released a report on their whiteboard experience with Zoom.

Zoom says the biggest takeaway from the report is that their Whiteboard provides what hybrid teams need for success with the flexibility and the freedom to collaborate. Especially for teams that are utilizing Zoom for video and chat.

“For many workers, audio-only calls are a thing of the past, as is restricted access to content. Instead, workers look to have full participation in the meeting regardless of location. This shift, along with the ever-changing in-room dynamics of local COVID-19 regulations have created the need for persistent, interactive content for synchronous and asynchronous work.”

Zoom Whiteboard creates a dynamic space for business collaboration, via desktop, laptop, touchscreen, or mobile device. You can create the whiteboard spontaneously, or with prior notice and resources.

“Starting with the ease of access through the same App and Web versions as voice, video, and chat, Zoom is concurrently working to address the challenges of hybrid work, as canvases can be shared with colleagues and those outside of the organization through both in-meeting and asynchronous functionality. Bringing the team together for synchronous work is straightforward and requires less effort from the participants in comparison to third-party tools.”

You can share your whiteboard with fellow Zoom Meeting participants and collaborate on whiteboards, PowerPoints, and other resources in real time. You even get a copy of the whiteboard after you’re done meeting with others!

“Within Zoom Whiteboard sessions, shapes and connecting lines are simple to understand and easy to add. The ease of use is consistent for almost all interactions within a whiteboard, as every element can be added within 2-3 clicks by the user. New users quickly pick up the interactions needed to ideate, brainstorm, build mind maps, and org charts.”
