## Change your video call 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 call provider. The video call providers
supported by zulip are:
* [Jitsi Meet](/integrations/doc/jitsi)
* [Zoom integration](/integrations/doc/zoom)
* [BigBlueButton integration](/integrations/doc/big-blue-button)
!!! tip ""
It is also possible to disable the video call button for your organization by
setting the provider to "None".
