Many of us have been on a lot of Zoom calls during the pandemic, but you might not know that Zoom also has its very own Slack- and Microsoft Teams-esque product called Zoom Chat. On Monday, Zoom announced<\/a> a small change to the name of the product \u2014 it\u2019s now called Zoom Team Chat \u2014 alongside a handful of other handy updates coming to the collaboration software.<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s start with the name change. Zoom is adding \u201cTeam\u201d because customers were getting confused about the difference between the chat you can use in Zoom meetings with the separate communication suite. Renaming the product to Zoom Team Chat \u201chelps make the distinction that it is a full collaborative hub product,\u201d Sharvari Nerurkar, Zoom Team Chat\u2019s head of product, said in an interview with The Verge<\/em>.<\/p>\n
