(ANSA) - MILAN, NOV 18 - With remote work that does not seem to give way entirely when returning to the office, Google has decided to extend its professional video calling platform Meet. The app, available for both smartphones, chetablets and computers, now allows to accommodate a maximum of 500 participants in the same room, doubling the previous limit of 250. The novelty is not for all subscribers but only for users subscribed to the Business Plus, Enterprise Standard levels , Enterprise Plus and Education Plus. "We hope that increasing the maximum meeting size will make it easier to connect and collaborate with colleagues, customers and consumers," Google explained on its blog. In addition to this, there remains the possibility of broadcasting your live broadcast to a maximum of 100,000 spectators,connected exclusively to the streaming video. The persistence of working from home has led the major companies developing videoconferencing products, including Microsoft and Zoom, to increase the maximum number of participants on a single call, voice only or even video. Microsoft has already extended the maximum limit for US government users who can connect to a meeting via computer to 25,000, and should act similarly for accounts tied to public utilities in other countries. The limit of non-paying users connected to a "room" is instead of 1,000. Zoom, on the other hand, which has begun to show advertising announcements on the meeting summary pages only to free users, allows, through the purchase of the Large Meetings additional package, to extend from 500 to 1.000 the number of participants in a video call.
