Product Information
Zoom is a web-based video meeting tool. It works through either a web browser, a local desktop client, or a mobile app. Users can choose to record sessions, collaborate on projects, and share or annotate one another's screens.
Zoom Licensed (Pro) extends the duration of a meeting or session to 24 hours, rather than the basic license restriction of 40 minutes. Up to 300 participants may join a meeting or session.
Only the host (the person setting up the meeting and hosting the session) of a meeting needs a Zoom Licensed (Pro) license. Regular participants do NOT require a Zoom Licensed (Pro) account in order to join and engage in a Zoom session.
Terms of use
Our enterprise license allows us to use the Zoom products for University of Utah and University of Utah Health work related purposes, both academic and administrative, including all academic teaching, learning, and research activities.
Accessing the Zoom license
When logging in via single sign-on (SSO), campus users will be auto-provisioned a standard Zoom Licensed (Pro) account; hospital users will be auto-provisioned a HIPAA-compliant Zoom Licensed (Pro) account.
- Campus users:
- First time activation: follow the instructions here.
- Visit utah.zoom.us and select "Sign in" to sign in via Single Sign On.
- Hospital users: visit utah-health.zoom.us and select "Sign in" to sign in via Single Sign On.
Users who previously had a Zoom account not registered through the university may find that Zoom automatically signs in to the old account. Simply log out of Zoom and revisit one of the websites above. Sign in with SSO to automatically be provisioned a new Zoom Licensed (Pro) account.
Add-on licenses
A limited number of webinar and larger meeting licenses are available for short-term checkout from Digital Learning. To request a temporary checkout license please complete the DLT Zoom Checkout Form.
If you need add-on features on a regular basis, our software catalog offers the following add-on licenses:
- Zoom - Webinar 1000 Participants (Per Host)
- Zoom - Webinar 500 Participants (Per Host)
- Zoom - Zoom Room (Per Room)
All Add-On licenses are annual subscription licenses.

Access room connectors
We have purchased room connectors with our enterprise license. The join information for H.323 & SIP is included on the meeting invitation you receive.
- "Join by SIP" information can be used by IVC schedulers to connect pre-scheduled codec connections to the Zoom meeting.
- "Join by H.323" information can be used to dial directly from the installed codec into the Zoom meeting.
For more information, please see "Getting Started with H.323/SIP Room Connectors" on the Zoom web site.
