The program includes budget-friendly hardware options and simple technology upgrades at fixed monthly prices, eliminating the large up-front costs and making it easier for customers to deploy Zoom Rooms solutions.

Other features of Zoom HaaS include streamlined purchasing, scalability and managed support through Zoom with the ability to add professional and managed services for installation and enhanced end-to-end management.

The program follows a growing trend of videoconferencing and collaboration providers partnering with manufacturers to offer hardware and software bundles with the added value of end-user support. Cisco’s Webex, GoToMeeting, BlueJeans, Google and others offer similar packages.
