If you’re using Microsoft Outlook with Google Apps, you can now add, manage, and join Hangouts video calls. Meeting participants who receive an invitation to an event can now join the Hangout video call with one click, making for a seamless experience.
Google Hangouts Video Calls plugin for Microsoft Outlook Meetings is also used by Chromebox for meetings organizations that do not have Google Apps for Business. The plugin adds a video call name to the Microsoft Outlook event, and participants join the video call from a Chromebox for meetings device by entering the video call name using the remote control.
Hangout plugin for Microsoft Outlook adds two buttons in the Office Ribbon for Outlook Mail and Calendar—one for scheduled and one for unscheduled video calls.
