Zoom is a powerful tool for live virtual classes. But when paired with a full Learning Management System (LMS), its capabilities multiply. At Addmen Group, we integrate Zoom with our LMS to deliver a secure, organized, and feature-rich online learning environment. If you’re using Zoom alone, you may be missing critical components like secure access, replay options, attendance tracking, and streamlined content management.
| Feature | Zoom Alone | Zoom + Addmen LMS Integration |
| Content Organization | Live sessions are scheduled manually; less structure | All classes scheduled and shown on student dashboards as part of the curriculum |
| Secure Access / Login | Anyone with Meeting ID can join (potential for unwanted access) | Only enrolled/registered students can access classes via the LMS or app; no need to share meeting IDs repeatedly |
| Branding & Personalization | Zoom interface / generic branding | White-label app / portal with your institute’s logo and design |
| Replay & Video Storage | Session recordings need manual saving & distribution | Auto‑recorded, stored in secure cloud; available for students to replay within LMS |
| Attendance / Participation Records | Basic or manual | Integrated attendance tracking combined with other learning activity metrics |
| Supplementary Content | Limited to live sessions | Full suite: quizzes, assignments, notes, downloads, feedback, etc. in one place |
| Exam Proctoring / Secure Assessments | Not included | Zoom being integrated also for exam proctoring; secure assessment features in LMS |
| Offline / Partial Connectivity | If internet drops, class is missed | Students can catch up via replay; buffer between disconnections |
