Samba Live 5.11

Release date: 26 March 2021

This update brings another huge improvement to the breakout rooms. You can now pre-assign participants to breakout rooms. This means, you can setup your breakout rooms already in advance when scheduling a session. The breakout sessions are ready when you are starting your session.

Additionally, we are introducing some improvements to our account center and UI. Read all about the details in the following.
