What is the Difference Between Meetings, Classes, Webinars, Events, Co-working Spaces and Showcases?

Understanding the Categories and the Presets

The Main difference between Meetings, Classes, Webinars, Events, Co-working Spaces and Showcases is the initial setup of the controls and some additional features not available in some of them.

Categories Comparison

The following table shows the differences between them. 

*R = You can enable later from Inside your room, Under This Room > Room Settings.

Note that you can change, enable and disable the majority of the presets inside your room, even after creating your space. For example, as much as screen share is not initially available for Classes, you can enable it from inside your room at anytime. Scroll down to see more details on how to do that.
