Lab 7 - Vidcast

Looking for alternatives to meetings? With Vidcast, users can quickly record, edit, and share video updates or presentations to streamline communication. In this lab, you'll review and set organization-wide settings, then create a template tailored for a specific user group-just as in previous labs.

The Vidcast default vs template settings chart shows which Vidcast settings are set by default and which you can change for groups using the template. Use the chart as a quick reference to see default settings versus customizable options to fit your organization’s needs.
