SMC Zoom Pro Account Tiers:

  • Faculty and staff Zoom Pro accounts allow users to host group meetings for large audiences and record meetings in the Zoom Cloud for future playback. Zoom cloud recordings will be purged after 30 days.
  • Student Zoom Pro accounts, similar to faculty and staff accounts, allow students to host group meetings for large audiences. However, if students want to record their meetings, student accounts are required to record meetings to their local machine (laptop, computer or hard drive)
