    Prefer to Record with Zoom? Check Out These Important Settings

    There are two options for recording with Zoom, depending on the quality of the recording needed:

    • Cloud recording: Conveniently record synchronous sessions directly to the cloud
    • Local recording: For the best quality when recording your speaker view

    (NOTE: The speaker view records a low resolution recording at 640x360 when recording directly to the cloud. It is recommended if you need a better quality recording in speaker view, to record to the local computer).
