Eight years ago, I started designing and facilitating online collaborative meetings for my clients. It’s pretty safe to say that, over the course of the years, we’ve experimented with nearly all kinds of online and remote collaborative meetings. But in the end, it all boils down to three formats: 100% online, multi-room and hybrid.

Facilitators can now send messages to one or all the participants of a Quiz activity on the Stormz app – a great way to remind participants about how much time they have left or to broadcast new instructions. Just like the features we unveiled last week, this will be particularly useful to our power users facilitating complex collaborative sessions such as remote meetings or multiple simultaneous breakout sessions.

Stormz has been designed from the very beginning to facilitate all kinds of remote meetings and turn distance into an asset rather than an obstacle. As travel restrictions multiply, a lot of facilitators in our community are turning to Stormz as an alternative to face-to-face meetings. 

If you also feel such a need but have never used Stormz for remote sessions, feel free to ask for support to other facilitators on our Facebook group!

Last week, we rolled out a major upgrade to the Quiz. Now, we’re unveiling two new features that will significantly improve your experience as a
facilitator:

Great news! We’re unveiling today the first of a string of major upgrades to the Quiz activity: the UI has been completely redesigned, significant improvements have been made in the Leaderboard and... we have a dark theme.
