Web Conferencing at Buffalo State

Microsoft Teams Meetings is currently the only web conferencing software supported by Information Technology (IT).  

From time to time, a member of the Buffalo State Community may need to participate in a web conference that is being hosted by an off-campus group that may not be using Microsoft Teams Meetings. Examples are Adobe Connect, GoToMeeting, Skype, Skype for Business, WebEx, Zoom, Blue Jeans, Google Meet, etc. These other web conferencing products are not supported by Information Technology (IT) (no training or troubleshooting are available).  However, the Buffalo State Community may take part in a conference using one of these platforms on their own. Please contact the host of such a conference for support and training documentation.  In many cases, there are excellent training and support materials found on the vendor's website for these conference platforms.  

If you are participating in a conference that requires an application to be loaded on a Buffalo State owned computer, please submit a Software Installation Ticket to have this software installed.
