Meeting Branding

Description

The Meeting Branding feature allows you to attach personalised nametags and backgrounds to users' video feeds on apps such as Zoom, Microsoft Teams, or Google Meet. This uses the Icon and Background assets in our Brand Kits feature - once you add your branding, it is then used for both your organisation's signatures and your video calls. You can design multiple Meeting Branding themes to connect to different Brand Kits.

For Microsoft Teams users, users can download the theme's icon, nametag overlay, and/or background branding you set as a picture background from the User Details Editor. Transparent backgrounds are accepted and behave as blurred backgrounds in calls.

For Google Meet users, users can download the theme's icon, nametag overlay, and/or background branding you set as a picture background from the User Details Editor. The participant's details must be made part of the picture background. You cannot use transparent backgrounds or just the overlay due to limitations in Google Meet - you must upload a background to your branding.

For Zoom users, Exclaimer integrates the Exclaimer Zoom app with the Zoom Desktop client. Overlays show the participant's display name, job title, and optional brand icon and picture background from the theme. Overlays are also compatible with Zoom backgrounds.
