Benefits to recording with native Zoom
Gong governs native recording with Zoom in a similar fashion as recording with the Gong bot, meaning that the same business logic and privacy settings in Gong apply. Gong will start Zoom recording and retrieve the recordings from Zoom based on these rules.
Recording with Zoom (native recording) has clear benefits:
Highest-possible video and audio recording
On-screen recording notification
Host can stop, start, and pause the recording as needed (for example, this is useful when screen-sharing or discussing sensitive information)
No phantom meeting participant (i.e. the Gong bot)
Ability to leverage Zoom's customizable consent options
Zoom's recording prompt plays privately so participants only hear it once
Bring call Zoom chats into Gong
Leverage Gong app for Zoom to take notes during meetings that are timestamped and shown in the call page
A few limitations compared to recording with the Gong bot:
No breakout rooms - where the Gong bot can get assigned to a room and record there, with native recording, we can't do that.
Note that it can take a little longer for the call to appear in Gong. This is due to Gong waiting for the call to be ready in Zoom for retrieval.
What to do next: enable Zoom recording!
