Guest Presenter in a Live event - licences
kev-event-tech Hi hope you are well. We at USW are wanting to use Live Events as our conference platform. We having great problems with engaging guest speakers with the complexity of having to create accounts and licensing restriction. Most who are trying are typically saying "This is easy with Zoom" I would like to connect with a Live events Guru to ensure we are not missing something here. I have exhausted the microsoft literature and that has just muddied the water even more. It is not a simple process for busy high level speakers or those with rudentry digital literacy skills. Any connections or introductions to anyone who could assist us with this very much appreciated.
NeilUSW yeah it's a total nightmare. we have a number o account that we now give out to guests that have a business basic licence if they don't have their own paid for accounts. we have also invested in some kit to roll out Vmix to operate the events and setting up the presenters in a normal meeting and use NDI for the video mixing which allows the presenters to join from any device and without a teams account.
this will make their experience a lot better and more "Zoom" like by just clicking on a link.
