                ● Expel a participant or all participants
                ● Chat with a single participant or all participants
                ● Mute/unmute audio and/or video for a single participant or all participants
                ● Password protect meetings; only those with a password can join a meeting
                ● Rename Webinar Attendees
                ● View All Participants’ Video in Gallery View While Screensharing
                ● Pre-Assign Breakout Rooms
