FAQ

h1. What is Aurinoco's Jitsi service?

Since September 2021, Aurinoco provides the Jitsi videoconferencing service.  It is free to Aurinoco subscribers.

It works for AVCAN, ERN and Internet-connected clients and may be more reliable than Zoom etc., especially when all clients are on AVCAN or ERN.  To be updated when we have more operational experience.
