It's not logged when you have a meeting at the office. it is very useful and it is easy to use this app. The best thing is the settings are very friendly to use.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some settings in the application is not applicable on all kinds of laptop. If the laptop is too old I can't use the green screen background I need to provide green background to use the green screen.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Sometimes I'msolving the settings of the camera and headset to see if its working or not. The benefit that I realized is it is new concept of meeting not face o face but through zoom meeting .
Recommendations to others considering the product:
it is easy and friendly to use for a corporate meeting or personal use.
Fantastic for meetings and collabs
What do you like best about the product?
The most helpful part of Zoom is that it allows you to connect and have meetings with people from any part of the world. You can have casual conversations or business conversations with one or more people at the same time. Zoom is fairly easy to use and its user interface is one of the friendlier ones. The quality of meetings is excellent and you can have virtual sessions without worrying about any possible audio fluctuations or video blur. Zoom can be used on any device of convenience, which is a huge upside as it allows you to work from anywhere, not just from your home. Many use Zoom for work, collabs, and classes now due to its streamlined features of screen sharing, file transfer, and webinars. You can have rooms with any number of participants, which helps greatly in having specific rooms for specific topics of discussion. Screen sharing can be done in one-on-one chats or meeting rooms for sharing purposes. For people working with multiple monitors, Zoom allows you to choose between sharing a specific window or a specific monitor, which shares the entire screen with all of the participants. Zoom is suitable for small to medium-sized meetings for free, where you can have up to 100 participants. But you can raise the limit to up to 300 participants by getting Zoom Pro or Zoom Business, making Zoom affordably scalable. You can record all meetings, calls, and screen shares on Zoom, which Zoom saves on the cloud for global access no matter the device. That being said, Zoom is also available for mobile phones, allowing you to have cross-platform communication with just about anyone you have as a contact. With Zoom Pro or Zoom Business, you can also have phone calls across the world using Zoom on your computer.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't dislike anything about Zoom. It's been nothing but fantastic since I've started using it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
No problems per se, but Zoom has been handy for meetings and collaborations. Working from home is a challenging task as you don't see your colleagues face-to-face nor do you have anyone to help when you run into issues. But Zoom helps ease that tension as you can communicate with anyone using chat messages or meetings. You can have private sessions or group sessions with more people. For productivity, Zoom offers a lot of value. With Zoom Pro or higher, you can have meetings that last up to 24 hours and up to 1GB in storage for recordings in the cloud. Screen sharing is what makes Zoom work as a reliable medium of collaboration as you can work together and allow remote access to any of the participants to control input devices such as mouse and keyboard. This is very helpful for customer support agents when they want to help clients with niche problems and train recruits. The benefit is easily Zoom's portability. You can use it on any medium, including web browsers. Zoom's plugins on Outlook, Chrome, Firefox, etc., allow easier management of meetings and clear up your schedule as necessary.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you don't use Zoom, you're missing out on a variety of features to help with productivity and improve communication means. Zoom is easy to get started with since it's free and quick to download and install.

virtual background and media & audio control
Stay connected with ease
What do you like best about the product?
Zoom is the best platform for video conferences, allowing you to conduct your sessions whenever you want, wherever you want. You can have video conferences with up to 99 other participants and this limit can be raised to 300 based on your account type. You can also have private sessions with just one person by hosting a conference from their DMs. Zoom is the most intuitive software for conferences as it has the settings to help you prepare yourself. You can receive audio feedback on how your mic sounds and see your video quality before you enter any conference, which helps eliminate any possible issues with clarity as you can fix them beforehand. Zoom has built-in screen sharing, which is beneficial in work conferences and sessions with clients or customers where you're sharing your project or new product. You can easily get feedback from polls, surveys, and forms at any point during the session. Zoom allows you to stream your conference on social media platforms simultaneously, which is an excellent way for businesses to make their conference calls and announcements easy to view on apps like Facebook and YouTube to reach a wider audience who may not use Zoom. Zoom makes it possible for people to work from home through its seamless communication features. While screen sharing takes up the entire window space on other video conferencing applications, Zoom not only allows you to see people's videos simultaneously but also allows more than one person to share at the same time. What I like best is that I can use Zoom on my tablet when I'm not on my computer to participate in conferences and exchange information through DMs. Zoom on a tablet is perfect as it's a much bigger screen than a mobile phone and it has more room to see multiple speakers at once instead of just the active speaker.
What do you dislike about the product?
Zoom badly needs the options to allow users to lower or increase the volume of other speakers in the conference. Oftentimes there are issues where one speaker is too loud while the others are too soft or vice versa. An individual volume slider for each participant will allow us to change their volume to our preference as opposed to the default one.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Zoom for work conferences and customer conference calls that we stream to our Facebook page and Youtube channel for broader reach. We've been steadily using Zoom for years for customer conference calls where we showcase new projects, products, and services we offer. We're able to interact with them easily without filling up space in our conference room while still getting the feedback we need from them through surveys, polls, and forms. Since the beginning of coronavirus, my coworkers and I have been pretty dependent on Zoom for our work to maintain social distance. Our day-to-day conferences greatly aid in having a good line of communication throughout our work sessions. Our screen sharing sessions make it possible to work as a group on various assignments and partake in training sessions. Zoom not only allows us to do our work but also have seamless interactions with customers and interns on a daily basis. Our sessions with interns allow us to assist and guide them into our ways of doing things. Even when there's no local network for us to send files with, we can use Zoom to send files instantly as it's pretty fast. Zoom also allows us to share presentations independent of screen sharing sessions, where we can move through the slides easily on Zoom. The other participants also get the ability to look at past slides and move up to where the presenter is at any time.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Zoom is fantastic for video conferences and allows users to interact with each other and customers seamlessly. It's portable so you can use it anywhere, even on your web browser. This allows you to invite people to your conferences even if they don't have the app downloaded. Overall, it's the most versatile and easy-to-use software where communication happens.
The Most Intuitive and Simple to Join Meeting Platform
What do you like best about the product?
The best thing I like about Zoom is that it provides me a live feed in the Settings regarding the CPU and Memory usage. It also helps me trach the bandwidth, for both sending and receiving operations. Many a time, it happens that multiple applications are open on my system, which leads to high Memory consumption. This feature helps me decide whether I would need to close some of these applications, and also to decide whether to switch my network to a better one in case more bandwidth is required. This is really helpful since I have daily team meetings wherein a lot of content is shared on-screen, people switch on their videos, and this increases RAM usage and bandwidth.
What do you dislike about the product?
For some of the meetings, I have noticed that the camera directly tuns on as soon as I join, and I am not prepared for the same. I might be looking unprofessional, and this is really embarrassing during client calls wherein turning the camera on was not planned for. A separate message box should pop up to mention that the camera would be turned on upon joining the meeting so that people could ready themselves and adjust their looks.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
In the current Work From Home environment, virtual meetings are a must to keep the team bonded and well-informed on the progress of the tasks. Since my team follows an Agile model, daily team huddles are a must, and hence a virtual meeting platform is required. Zoom comes to the rescue to aid with all the meetings the team has, ranging from daily huddles to client demonstrations. The features of reminders, screen sharing, video sharing, and annotations have been a real boon and have increased interactivity during the meets.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would recommend everyone to use Zoom. It is a very user-intuitive platform for having meetings, and helps creates groups and send messages with the same ease as with Whatsapp. You can also share messages with yourself which can act as reminders. A very helpful meeting platform.

Most satisfactory conferences
What do you like best about the product?
Zoom offers the best web conferencing today. It stands out in the category today for its ease of use and excellent UI and UX. You can have web conferences with people from all over the world at any time. You can have web conferences where only the host can display video or allow this permission to all participants. When creating a conference, you can enable the waiting room option, where all participants have to wait until you admit them into the main room. The waiting room will be available throughout the meeting, not just the beginning, making it convenient for participants who are late or their turn to participate isn't at the very beginning of the conference. Whether or not you're in a web conference, the text box and message threads are available all the time for chat-based conversations. You can have web conferences with one person or several people simultaneously. Zoom is excellent for those working from home as it provides the means to hide your background. Even if you don't have a green screen behind you, you can blur your surroundings or select a virtual background image that Zoom will display to the other participants for the sake of your privacy.
Furthermore, Zoom is an all-in-one software that you can use on phones and other devices for conferences if you cannot use your desktop computer. You can essentially take Zoom and your conferences with you in your pocket and attend them from anywhere.

What do you dislike about the product?
You get only 40 minutes of conferencing time if you're using Zoom without a subscription. This limit only exists for web conferences involving two other people or more. If it's just you and one other person, there's no such limit.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Zoom is excellent for conferences, which I use it for daily. It allows me to connect and work with my coworkers seamlessly as we've been relegated to work remotely due to the lockdown. Although the restrictions aren't as strict as they use to be, we continue to work remotely as it allows us to be productive and save time and money on the commute to the office. Zoom has been so handy that it solves all problems that can arise from not having face-to-face communication in real life. My coworkers and I can work at our own pace without any time wastage since there is constant communication and collaboration throughout the day. For any issues we run into, we can solve them by sharing screens, a feature for which Zoom is well-known. File transfer is quick and secure on Zoom, enabling us to send confidential company data and software code we work on without any data leak. Zoom ensures our conference rooms are secure with the help of the waiting list, where we have full control over who we admit into our conferences. Remote work at our organization wouldn't be possible without Zoom and it's by far the most important tool for producing consistent results and being time efficient.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you're considering Zoom after using another web conferencing software, you'll find it easier to use due to its intuitive UI and excellent UX. It guarantees fantastic results and it's free to download. You can also use it on your other compatible devices and conference from anywhere.
I started using Zoom when the pandemic hit and it has helped me immensely
What do you like best about the product?
I am an assistant teacher. So, during this last year and a half, we have been using Zoom to teach. It is incredible how this tool has allowed us to "transfer" many in-person activities we used to do with students to an online environment. For example: Group them, let them work together, and then call them back to the main room to check their work. Another great thing is that we can lock the meeting room. We have used this feature several times. When we have to talk privately with some students, we would tell them to arrive earlier, lock the room before everyone starts accessing and speak to them. Also, at the end of presentations, we usually say goodbye to them, and we stay in the room, block it and start reviewing works without the fear they may enter the meeting room without us noting, just like it was during the in-person classes.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are a few things I think can be improved. For example, we must call the students back to the main room. Two possible ways: One is to enter the room they are in and tell them to go back; the other is using the announcement option, but letters are so small, and if students do not see their screen, they won't even notice it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are translating physical classes to virtual ones. One of the benefits is that students now feel like they are all "in the front row". We usually have rooms of 20-30 students, and not all of them get to be in the front row. Now, all can hear their partner's critics and comments on their work. Another great thing is that we can record classes, and we can share them with students later. The "raising hand" emoji is also a great option to know when students participate.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Zoom offers the best user experience. If you are new to virtual meetings (as we all were before the pandemic started), it may take you a while to get used to it. But soon, you will love it. You will want to change it for any other software.
Have Used Zoom For Years - Solid Platform
What do you like best about the product?
Showing if they are hot in responding, answering.
What do you dislike about the product?
I do not have any issues, use it many times a day.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am able to count on Zoom and set up meetings and I'm able to decide meeting by meeting if necessary if I want a passcode for each.
Simple to Use, Effective Application
What do you like best about the product?
I like that when I click on Personal Meeting in the Zoom app, it will allow me to click on the Personal Meeting button to easily copy and paste it into Google Calendar for meetings.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike that it is sometimes hard to cultivate individual meeting links, in that I do not know how to do it and the product does not make it easy to figure out.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is an easy, accessible product for internal and external meetings (i.e. with clients). Nearly everyone knows how to at least get into Zoom, which has allowed my company to conduct meetings seamlessly.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I suggest that you really experiment with the user interface before purchasing because it is challenging to find out exactly what your upcoming meetings are or where they are all scheduled in a calendar.
