Zoom - Additional Licenses

The University of Colorado Boulder maintains a limited number of common good licenses that can be requested for temporary events at no additional cost. Users and departments who require a dedicated license can purchase what they need.

Common Good Licenses

Available common good licenses include Webinar 1000 and Large Meeting 500. These licenses can be requested for up to two weeks each semester. There are a limited number of each license available. To request a temporary common good license, please fill out the Zoom - Common Good License Request form.

Webinar

Webinar attendees are limited in the way they interact to chat, responding to polls, and using the "raise hand" feature. Webinar attendees are unable to see other participants (e.g., students cannot see other attendees during a lecture, but can interact with instructor). Webinars have an increased capacity of 1,000 attendees.

Large Meeting

A Large Meeting expands a standard Zoom meeting, increasing participant capacity from 100 to 500. All participants will have access to all available meeting tools, such as breakout rooms, screen sharing, and interaction with others in the meeting.

For more information on the differences between the Webinar and Large Meeting platforms, see Zoom's meetings and webinar feature comparison.
