## Change your video chat provider

By default, Zulip integrates with
[Jitsi Meet](https://jitsi.org/jitsi-meet/), a fully-encrypted, 100% open
source video conferencing solution. Organization administrators can also
change the organization's video chat provider.

Note that both the Google Hangouts and Zoom integrations require paid
accounts with their respective providers.

### Change your organization's video chat provider

    **Note**: Zoom support is experimental. In particular, Zulip currently
    supports having only one active Zoom meeting at a time.

{tab|jitsi-on-premise}

If you're running both Zulip and Jitsi Meet on-premise, just set
`JITSI_SERVER_URL` in `/etc/zulip/settings.py`.

You can also disable the video call button for your community by
setting the provider to "None".
