Zoom provides a Unified Meeting Experience platform that brings HD video conferencing, mobility and web meetings together as a cloud service. A crystal-clear video conversation and high quality screen sharing with up to 25 people or rooms. It is available for Windows, Mac, iOS, Android.

Installation

Go to Zoom Download and download Zoom. After the install you can enter your first, last name and your e-mail address to sign up.

Use the desktop installment.
Find quiet room.
Use a fast wired network connection (avoid Wifi). start this speedtest. The yellow bar for download and upload should be above 1.2Mbps for one-on-one meetings. A group(for example 5) zoom meeting should be above 20Mbps.
Wall mount power supply for your PC (to avoid battery issues).
We recommend diffuse lighting from the front (e.g. window). We do not recommend lighting from behind or above (neons), because this causes underexposed and poorly lit faces.
A neutral and static background helps to reduce distractions during the talk.
Some people prefer giving the presentation while standing. This significantly improves the intonation and makes the presentation more dynamic.
Optimize Zoom. Go to the start video arrow on the lower left side. Select Video settings....

Select Enable HD and Touch up my appearance.

-==Before your meeting==
+===During your meeting===
-Control video and audio quality.
+'''Mute your microphone when necessary.'''
-Invest in a quality webcam and speaker and microphone headset. These provide better video and audio than your computer’s built-in system. Try to hold meetings in quiet, indoor locations to control ambient noise.
-Adjust your lighting.
+Zoom has a “Mute Microphone” option that cuts down on ambient feedback for the audience. When there is a lot of back-and-forth discussion you will turn this off, but you should mute yourself when listening to a presenter.
-Don’t sit directly in front or beside a bright light source, or else all the audience sees is a bright light and a shadowy figure. Experiment with moving lamps and your camera until you can see your brightly-lit face on the screen.
-Think about your background.
+'''Use Zoom’s chat function.'''
-Try to provide a nice, plain background. If your treadmill is in your office and you use it more as a place to hang laundry, that’s not really the best visual for your audience. You can’t control everything in a mobile environment, but you should give some thought to background prior to your meeting.
-Optimize Zoom.
-Sharing. Generally DO NOT select “Share Your Desktop” (unless you want every pop-up email and private message on display for your audience!). Instead, open up any relevant documents before the call and share only those during the meeting. Note that when you share, Zoom prioritizes the shared item to the bandwidth. This can reduce the other video feeds’ quality, so don’t share longer than necessary.
-Practice hosting. Zoom is very easy to use, but a live video conference with a customer is not the time to explore its features. Make video appointments with internal employees and friends to get

 Think about your actions on camera.
-Always remember that everyone can see you. Someone is watching as you take a big, wide-mouth yawn, stretch, or wander around the room. These exaggerated movements are distracting to the audience and can be disruptive to the speaker. Try to stay still and be attentive – or at least act attentive!
