Wow! What if we told you that troubleshooting AV issues during a live presentation is a thing of the past? Well get ready for us to tell you that, because Backstage is now live! It’s the place for producers and presenters to test their hardware, software, and get comfy with Venue before going on stage.
Checklists? We got’em. Video? Check. Audio? Check. Going on and off stage, checking out some screenshares? No problem. Check check check. Using Backstage, start the meeting and move everyone to the live show while behind the scenes, you can continue to coordinate a stellar and seamless run of show.
It was previously possible to move everyone back to the Pre-Event space after your meeting had already started – this won’t happen any more.
All new meetings on Venue will now get assigned a random background on creation. Gotta keep your all-hands looking fresh and cool!
Sometimes folks had issues with the firewall check, and sometimes the issue was that the firewall test didn’t have a super-obvious ‘start’ button 😅. We now just run it automatically.
