Recapping Zoomtopia 2023: The future of collaboration

Zoomtopia 2023, held on October 4th and 5th in San Jose, California, was a whirlwind of innovation and inspiration. Our team had the privilege of attending this dynamic event, and we’re excited to share some key highlights with you.

From meetings to a complete platform

The event opened with the Vision & Innovation keynote, unveiling Zoom’s latest developments, including a compelling visual that encapsulates Zoom’s evolution from a meeting tool to a comprehensive platform. This transformation revolves around two core pillars: Employee Experience and Customer Experience. Zoom is no longer just about meetings; it’s a one-stop destination for seamless business interactions.

Introducing Zoom Docs

One of the spotlight moments at Zoomtopia was the grand reveal of “Zoom Docs.” This isn’t just a document collaboration tool. Zoom Docs elevates the traditional document experience by introducing drag-and-drop content blocks for tables, charts, images, and more. It empowers users to tailor documents to their unique projects and workflows effortlessly. Real-time collaboration, easy access from within meetings, and other innovative features make Zoom Docs a game-changer. It’s expected to be generally available in 2024 and promises to redefine how teams work together.

AI Companion: your digital assistant

Zoom is clear that AI is the future. With the introduction of AI Companion, they’re taking a significant step into the future of business communication. We were captivated by practical applications of Zoom AI. Zoom reassures its users by explicitly stating that customer content isn’t used to train AI models or shared with third parties for this purpose.

Zoom Contact Center: elevating Customer Experience

Zoom Contact Center has emerged as a pivotal component of Zoom’s portfolio, with a dedicated focus on enhancing customer experience. It’s designed to empower businesses to deliver exceptional customer service while harnessing the power of Zoom’s unified platform.

Elevating Employee Experience with Workvivo

Last but not least, let’s talk about Workvivo, dedicated to enhancing the employee experience. With employees working hybrid, it’s more important than ever to keep employees engaged. Workvivo is all about fostering employee engagement, kind a like a modern intranet. Now part of the Zoom family, Workvivo is stepping up its game with exciting updates, including Employee Insights for deeper engagement tracking, a new integration that lets you access Workvivo directly from your Zoom client for a seamless experience and an AI-powered virtual assistant, aligning with Zoom’s AI-forward approach.
