Where are the latest VDI release notes?

You can find our latest VDI release notes .

Does the Zoom Workplace VDI app require a persistent VDI environment?

The Zoom Workplace VDI app works in both persistent and non-persistent environments.

Can the VDI app run as a virtualized application?

As of the date of this document’s publication, the Zoom VDI Workplace app does not support being run as a virtualized application, but this option is being considered. If this feature is important to your business, please contact your Zoom account representative or support team for more information.

Does the VDI app support….?

The Zoom Workplace VDI app is on-par with the standard (i.e., non-VDI) Zoom Workplace desktop app in almost every way. This includes features such as optional end-to-end encryption, gallery view, speaker view, multi-speaker view, language interpretation, captions, breakout rooms, screen sharing, meeting wallpapers, Zoom AI Companion, Zoom Mesh, Zoom Clips, Zoom Docs, and more. Occasionally, due to a staggered release time between the standard Workplace desktop app and VDI app, there may be occasional feature disparity until a new VDI release is available.

Additionally, some VDI features are limited in use, which is elaborated in the VDI Feature Limitations section of this document. To see the list of VDI feature comparisons, please review our article.
