When your teams are using Zoom to align on projects, the time spent on calls negatively impacts their productivity. However, if Zoom calls are with customers and prospects, the more you track the time spent on each conversation, the better you get at optimizing sales outreach or support time.
In this article you’ll discover how to track time for calls and meetings with the Timely integration for Zoom. You’ll learn how the Zoom integration works and use it to reduce communication drain internally or improve your customer communication efforts.
Can Zoom track time?
No.
What Zoom can do however is use A LOT of it! Whether its a team catch up or a meeting with a client, time spent on Zoom can soon add up. What’s more, just because the meeting was scheduled to run 15 minutes, it won’t stop it running over.
Having an accurate picture of exactly how much time you and your team are spending on Zoom at any given time will enable you to optimize your workdays and ensure that teams ae kept busy with value-add work, rather than stuck on another Zoom call.
