Elgato is thrilled to announce native Zoom support for its iconic Stream Deck lineup. With the introduction of a dedicated Zoom plugin, Zoom users can now effortlessly manage their meeting controls from any Stream Deck device. This integration provides professionals with streamlined tools to enhance their Zoom video calls and presentations.
Additionally, Stream Deck has become the first Zoom Certified Personal Productivity Device, a new category of the Zoom Hardware Certification Program. This milestone further highlights Stream Deck’s role as the premier workflow controller for online communication. The Zoom plugin is available as a free download from the Elgato Marketplace, Elgato’s digital storefront featuring thousands of Stream Deck assets, such as profiles and icons.
Setting the Stage
Since the rise of remote work, people have sought new ways to manage their virtual meetings. Yet traditional means of control, like mouse clicks or keyboard shortcuts, often disrupted the presenter’s focus and flow. Savvy professionals found a workaround in Stream Deck, assigning macros one-by-one to its customizable keys. With today’s plugin, Zoom users can skip all that setup and take direct control instead, while unlocking additional benefits.
Stream Deck Integration
Available for both PC and Mac, the Zoom plugin brings meeting controls right to the user’s fingertips. Whether unmuting a microphone, turning on a camera, or starting a screen share or recording, essential Zoom actions are always just a touch away. Attendees can raise their hand or drop an emoji reaction without missing a beat. Dynamic key icons clearly show the status of microphones and cameras, ensuring no awkward surprises. What’s more, Elgato plans to introduce even more actions in future updates, further expanding control.
Setup is incredibly simple—with Stream Deck software, all it takes is a drag and drop.
Zoom Certified Personal Productivity Devices
Stream Deck is the first hardware product family to be certified under Zoom’s new Personal Productivity Device category. Devices in this category use new Zoom technology that allows certified third-party hardware to establish a two-way connection with the Zoom Workplace app on PC and Mac.
Stream Deck for Business
Today, more and more people are using the Elgato Stream Deck in the office. Intuitive, endlessly customizable, and integrated with the apps professionals use most, Stream Deck makes workflows feel seamless. It has become an essential tool across a wide range of industries, from finance to airlines and hospitals.
