Event roles for OnZoom

Host

Hosts are the users who schedule events. As the host, you have all the permissions you need such as managing the webinar, providing alternate hosts, and selecting panelists. There can only be one host per event.

As a host, you have the right to:

  • An event can be started and stopped at any time
  • by using the tools in the security shield (located in the meeting control panel).
  • Mutes and unmutes the Panelists’ audio
  • as well as stops their video
  • presentation to the Moderators and Attendees during the event
  • enabling the Audio and Video privileges upon entry for Attendees
  • Mute and unmute Attendees’ audio
  • Respond to chats

Alternative Host

A Alternative Host shares many of the same controls as the Host, so the Alternative Host can manage the administrative side of the event.

The Alternative Host has the following permissions:

  • If the host is not able to join the event on time, start the event.
  • Access the security shield from the meeting controls (located within the meeting controls).
  • Moderators in the meeting must access the security shield.
  • Enable audio and video privileges for attendees as soon as they enter the meeting room.
  • Mutes and unmutes attendees’ audio as they enter the room
  • as well as responding to chats

Panelist

During a Webinar event, panelists can use tools that will allow them to participate effectively.

It is permissible for panelists to:

Attendee

An Attendee is a view-only participant in a Webinar, and their view is controlled by the Host. From the Q&A window and chat, attendees can interact with the Host and Panelists.

Meeting participants can share audio and video (if the Host permits it) during the event.
