In the last few weeks, the ZDV has carried out extensive tests with regard to conference sizes. Due to numerous optimizations and improved settings with the new BBB version 2.4, the team recommends new guidelines for the number of participants in a BBB conference.
Adjusted conference size recommendations
With the new recommendation, conferences with up to 600 participants can be held. Presentations, surveys, screen sharing, public chat and shared notes can be used without restriction.
We have put together an overview of all the new scenarios for a BBB conference and what you need to consider: https://www.zdv.uni-mainz.de/bigbluebutton-moegliche-szenarien/
Test out the new possibilities with us
Test the various functions with us with a large number of participants.
We invite you to a BBB testing event on February 18 at 10:30 am.
