I need to set up a video conference for about 30 people for 2 hours. I would use zoom or ms teams, but Zoom limits me to 45mins; ms teams, as far as I understood, limits me to 1 hour.

What is the best and the simplest way to do this (and it must be a reliable option with web access)?

Ps: there is no need to be foss or super private or encrypted.

FaceTime supports up to 32 people on a group call. No time limit that I’m aware of. You can send web links to people on Android/Windows.

I'm an android/windows user myself. Can one schedule a facetime call? Is web experience as good as ms teams/zoom offers?

I’m sure the web version is as good as or better than Teams or Zoom. Any Zoom calls I’ve been subjected to have been a complete shit show of people trying to get it to work for the first 15mins…

Check out this article re. setting up and scheduling a FaceTime call. FWIW, anyone can join the call on any device but you’ll need an Apple device to set it all up initially.

Thank you. Will keep it as a plan B, since I do not have an apple account.
