Take Advantage: Free Access to Advanced Hangouts Meet

All organizations now have free access to advanced Hangouts Meet video-conferencing capabilities, which were previously only available to Enterprise customers.

Starting this week through July 1, 2020, all G Suite customers have access to:

  • Larger meetings for up to 250 participants per call
  • Live streaming for up to 100K viewers within domain
  • Record meetings to Google Drive

These features are off by default, so if you're a current G Suite customer you will need to enable the advanced Meet features in the Admin console prior to use.

Remember to press record! Hangouts Meet meetings can be recorded and stored in Drive for anyone on your team that missed the event or had to jump off early. When your team members are working from home this is a powerful way to keep everyone in the loop and ensure nobody misses critical discussions and decisions.

Leverage Hangouts Chat & Rooms

Stay in touch with your teams and keep projects moving using Hangouts Chat & Rooms.

Create a room for each project or department and add the appropriate team members. All content is accessible quickly via Search, making getting and staying up to speed easy.

This is the easiest way for dispersed team members to collaborate and communicate in a way that closely resembles the office interactions they're used to.
