What is the best platform to use for remote interpreting services?
We recommend Zoom as the most accessible videoconferencing platform. Zoom has features that allows the deaf BSL service users to multi-pin the interpreters and speakers, as well as the ability to ‘split screen’ when screen sharing.
We do not recommend MS Teams or Google Meet for accessibility.
Another option is to have two separate platforms open. For example, if your main meeting is through MS Teams, a separate Zoom platform can be open between the interpreter and the deaf BSL service user.
