11. I don’t risk accidentally sharing email or other private info
12. Less bandwidth heavy than other optionsThis enables more efficient management of the share by Elluminate
13. This shares your entire screen & anything on it eg Elluminate, open email etc This shares a specific application. Open the App & preferably any files you want to share BEFORE you start the share.
14. Sharing a region Use for demos Shares selected area Less resource heavy than full desktop share All data goes to host servers & back so takes time to appear on all screens Need accurate sizing Can be accidentally covered
