Everyone on the Same Page: Synchronized Video Playback in Your Meetings

You have a video you need to discuss with your team—a new marketing ad, a training module, or a customer testimonial. What do you do?

The usual options are frustrating. If you share your screen, you're often left with a choppy, low-resolution video and distorted audio. If you paste a link in the chat, everyone watches at their own pace, making it impossible to pause and say, "Let's talk about what happens at the 1:32 mark."

At Plug-N-Meet, we believe watching a video together should be a seamless, collaborative activity. That's why we built the "Play External Video" feature—a powerful tool that synchronizes video and audio playback for every participant, turning passive viewing into an active, shared experience.

Beyond the Chat: How to Engage Your Audience and Make Decisions with Live Polls

You're hosting a webinar and ask a critical question: "Does this new feature seem useful to you?" The response? A few scattered "yes" messages in the chat, buried between "hello from Brazil" and a question about something else entirely. You have no real data, no clear consensus, and no way to gauge the true opinion of your audience.

Text chat is great for conversation, but it's a terrible tool for structured feedback.

At Plug-N-Meet, we believe that understanding your audience shouldn't be a guessing game. That's why we built a simple, powerful Live Polling feature directly into the core meeting experience. It's the definitive tool for transforming a passive audience into active participants and for making data-driven decisions in real-time.
