FAQs

Both Zoom and Panopto have storage quotas. Enforcing retention policies helps ensure storage is shared equitably among users, preventing any single user or department from consuming excessive storage space. This also promotes efficient use of resources, ensuring that important and frequently accessed content remains available while removing outdated and unused videos.

The best place to store your recordings is in Google Drive.
