Google has introduced video conferencing device interoperability for Meet with Zoom. This means users will be able to join Zoom meetings from Google Meet hardware devices and Google Meet meetings from Zoom Rooms.
Recall, the company made this announcement last year October of the new built-in interoperability features.
The advanced features include as listed; polls, wired present, and dual-screen support may not be available when using Meet hardware to join Zoom Meetings and vice versa, the company disclosed. It also said the zoom interop will support core video conferencing features.

If your administrator has enabled it, you can join a Zoom meeting from a Google Meet hardware device. To do this, tap “Join or start a meeting” on the touch controller and select Zoom from the dropdown options to join an ad-hoc meeting. Alternatively, you can add a room to an event with Zoom meeting details to join a scheduled meeting.
This week will see to the roll out to end users to beginning usage and test run. The admin setting for this feature is gradually rolling out.
Zoom interop on Google Meet hardware devices is available to all Workspace customers, as well as G Suite Basic and Business customers with Google Meet hardware.
Once your admin enables the feature, you can join a Google Meet meeting from a Zoom Room by joining an ad-hoc meeting from your Zoom Room Controller by entering a Google Meet meeting code. You can also join a scheduled meeting by adding a room to an event with Google Meet details.
Meet interop on Zoom Rooms is available to all Zoom Rooms customers on a supported Zoom Rooms device or appliance.
However, we hope this latest update makes it even easier for our customers and their users to connect and collaborate with people outside of the Google Meet ecosystem.”
