Okay, I am going to admit... I am a mature IT sales professional that has always struggled with professional growth reading! There, I said it!However, Patrick Kelley's - "The Ultimate Zoom Cookbook" has changed all of that for me! I just picked up the book recently and, so far, I have found his approach to understanding how to use Zoom for professional and personal needs easy to understand as he serves it up in bite size appetizer chapters. I know this book will help me combine the human aspects of "connection" with today's workplace landscape needs to "collaborate" using Zoom and take my interactions to the next level!

To anyone using Zoom who is already a fan of the tattooednerd on Youtube (aka Patrick Kelley...) you will know that his approach is to make Zoom, well.. approachable. Just like his videos on youtube.Through pictures and instruction, Patrick walks us through the platform in a framework of Getting Ready, How To Do It, & There's More.... covering both the User Settings and In-App experience for balanced training & guidance.For those who use it to those who support it, there is something for everyone.While the book doesn't address everything across the Zoom Platform, that wouldn't be possible, nor feasible. Using Patrick's approach to using Zoom, this book takes one through the Basics, so that users can get comfortable, before tackling more complicated functionality.The point is to get your fingers on the keyboard, your mouse clicking in the settings, your mind engaged in the platform, so you can understand how and why you are using Zoom.

Patrick Kelley’s The Ultimate Zoom Cookbook is an exceptional resource, demonstrating his deep expertise in the realm of virtual communication. Kelley, a Distinguished Architect at Zoom, leverages over 25 years of experience at leading companies like ESPN, Citrix, and Microsoft. His position as a Chief Technical Evangelist and recognition as a top influencer in the UCaaS industry underscores his authority in the subject - and that's praising him even without commenting on his ink.​What sets this book apart is Kelley’s innovative approach to presenting technical knowledge as a recipe book. This format transforms potentially dry instructional content into engaging, bite-sized "recipes" that are easy to follow and implement. Each recipe includes sections like "Getting ready," "How to do it," and "There’s more," which guide users through Zoom’s features with clarity and precision​This method is reminiscent of Alton Brown's Good Eats, where complex culinary techniques are broken down into comprehensible steps, making the technical accessible to all.Kelley’s book is not just a technical manual but a comprehensive guide that covers everything from basic operations like setting up Zoom meetings and creating contacts, to advanced features such as AI implementation and live streaming on platforms like YouTube​. His detailed walkthroughs on security and privacy also ensure that users can navigate Zoom safely, a crucial aspect in today’s digital-first world​My only complaint is that I would have liked to see the inclusion of more updated visual aids. While the text is thorough, additional screenshots or diagrams would have enhanced my understanding, especially for visual learners like me. It also looks like most of the screen captures come from before the latest Zoom platform changes. Despite this, The Ultimate Zoom Cookbook stands out as a must-have for anyone looking to master Zoom, combining Kelley’s vast knowledge with a user-friendly, innovative presentation.

This book is such a valuable resource for all things Zoom. It goes through almost every product that Zoom makes and explains almost every feature in detail, with step by step tutorials. The “cookbook” format is really easy to follow. I have deployed Zoom products in enterprise settings and many of the end users would have loved having a guide like this. Most of Zoom's features are pretty intuitive for a tech savvy user, but for the not so intuitive features this cookbook does a great job of explaining the details behind each feature and walking the end user through how to leverage those features. The pictures along the way make it even easier to follow along. I do wish the pictures were in color, but I understand that doing so would add quite a bit to the cost of the physical book. If you get the digital copy though, the pictures are in color!Appendix A should be required reading for anyone who meets with end customers over video, regardless of the product. Kelley walks through the importance of a good microphone, camera, and lighting. He even makes a few budget product suggestions that can help you improve your video and audio quality without breaking the bank.My only concern is how quickly the book will become dated given the rate of innovation Zoom is known for. But I'm pretty sure packt and Kelley are ready for that given that the front cover prominently says "1st Edition".I would recommend this book to anyone who would like to know more about Zoom from an end user perspective. If you're an admin looking for a book on Zoom administration or integration, this isn't the book for you. Though, even as an admin, I bet there are still some tips in this book regarding certain features or settings that you weren't aware of. It's that robust.

Can I download the code files for Early Access titles? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We try to ensure that all books in Early Access have code available to use, download, and fork on GitHub. This helps us be more agile in the development of the book, and helps keep the often changing code base of new versions and new technologies as up to date as possible. Unfortunately, however, there will be rare cases when it is not possible for us to have downloadable code samples available until publication.

When we publish the book, the code files will also be available to download from the Packt website.

The publication date is as accurate as we can be at any point in the project. Unfortunately, delays can happen. Often those delays are out of our control, such as changes to the technology code base or delays in the tech release. We do our best to give you an accurate estimate of the publication date at any given time, and as more chapters are delivered, the more accurate the delivery date will become.
