HigherEdWeb's Web Accessibility Summit is using Heysummit.com for their conference software. (I don't know anything about heysummit.com<http://heysummit.com>, but I figured HigherEdWeb had to have done accessibility checks on it.)

Thanks,
D.

Greetings,

Zoom is still the top conferencing platform for better accessibility consideration over other platforms like Microsoft Teams, Google Meet, or Webex. Are there other recommended platforms not listed here? I appreciate any recommendations, preferences, or experiences that you may have about any conferencing platforms. Please share.

Thank you!

Lori
