Zoom Phone at U-M

Zoom Phone is a softphone service, which allows you to place and receive calls via your U‑M provided desktop or laptop through the Zoom application. This means that you’ll be able to use your U‑M telephone number wherever you may be, without the restriction of the fixed location of a physical telephone, and you will no longer need to use or share your personal cell phone number for work purposes. You will have the additional option to use U‑M Zoom Phone on your personal mobile devices if you choose, but this is not required.
