Zoom is the new ish
What do you like best about the product?
So far, Zoom has been an incredible competitor to Teams. The massive software updates that we normally get are really helpful .
What do you dislike about the product?
So far so good! For now I feel Zoom's productivity is great!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Zoom have been of much importance especially during the corona virus times. I have been using zoom for solely job interviews and family meetings and this has helped I and my family a lot.
Zoom is a great tool when working remote
What do you like best about the product?
I love that zoom works perfect on all my devices. It is great for my laptop which I love to use the most. If I am really mobile it works great on my iPhone. It is the perfect way to have meetings regardless of where you are.
What do you dislike about the product?
Only thing about Zoom I am not sure about is the price points for each plan and is a paid plan necessary?
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Right now with COVID-19 Zoom has made it easy to stay connected with clients. Where I usually meet with my clients to review projects, we can now meet online and share screens. Before the pandemic I used it when meeting up was not necessary or clients were out of state.
What I have learned is with Zoom even after the Quarantines are lifted it will still be great to use this tool rather than having to meet in person.

What a time for Zoom!
What do you like best about the product?
Zoom is having quite the moment right now! It is easy to use, everyone has heard of it, and you do not have to have a special account for access.
What do you dislike about the product?
At this time I have no dislikes. Zoom has solved many of issues we are all facing today while having to work from home and do remote learning for schools.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Zoom really has come to everyone's rescue. We are still able to have meetings, take depositions, and perform mediation. The schools are using Zoom for teachers to connect with their students and classmates to connect with each other.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Zoom really has become a household name. This product is something we use everyday.
An Indispensable Tool
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to continue our large meetings (100+) and have audience participation. The user interface is fairly intuitive. I have used Google Meet and Microsoft Teams but have found their UI has a bit of a learning curve. Zoom does an excellent job laying things out in a way that makes it decipherable even when you don't know what to do.
I love the Whiteboard feature. I use an editing tablet to draw illustrations for participants.

What do you dislike about the product?
I cannot think of anything that I dislike about Zoom. There could be improvements such as allowing hosts and co-hosts to participate in polls, sharing computer audio to Breakout Rooms, prioritizing participants with active video w/o removing other participants from the screen, and identifying the creator of annotations when the screen is being shared.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have a large meeting (100+) twice a week and smaller meetings (10+) throughout the week. We have been able to maintain our schedule without missing a beat and without losing participation.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Get acquainted with all of the options as administrator. For a more seamless and fluid experience we find that having an administrator and an assistant works best.
Great video conferencing software
What do you like best about the product?
The UI is very smooth and we can add our own virtual background while on a video call. It can be synced with google calendar where we can schedule a meeting or join one. Recording is also one good feature. This is just an awesome software.
What do you dislike about the product?
We have only 40 minutes of call time which can be annoying at times. If we have network issues then there is a lag on the video call.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We can share screens which is a fantastic feature. We can have multiple meetings on zoom. The integration with google calendar makes meetings seamless.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Go for the this software as it is very easy to use and one of the best video conferencing softwares. It is better if you upgrade zoom so you can continue your call after 40 minutes.
My Online learning Experience with ZOOM
What do you like best about the product?
Zoom application is easy to use, there are not many complex things to do to use it.
There is a mobile application, Desktop application is available as well as I could use Zoom through a web browser also.
Zoom has a free plan and it is enough for small to medium level video conferences.

Zoom has a free plan and it is enough for small to medium level video conferences.
What do you dislike about the product?
If you want a meeting of more than 40 minutes continuously uses, Zoom free plan is not enough. Need to buy one of the paid versions. Considering other available alternatives it seems Zoom is somewhat expensive.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Due to covid situation, many of us work from our homes. So to meet and discuss we wanted a platform. Among many of them, Zoom provides many tools which make our work easy. Like screen share, hand rising, file sharing etc. So we continuously use zoom for our meetings.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
We have been using zoom for 3 years now. So far there are no cons to this software. Now it is becoming more and more popular because it has many features. You can use the free version and if you have a large scale of meetings you can go with the paid version.
Zoom Review
What do you like best about the product?
I like the convenience and ease for users. It's very user friendly, so clients are able to click and connect.
What do you dislike about the product?
For people who use phones or tablets, you have to download the application. Sometimes this creates a hassle. Also, I wish their recording options were a bit more extensive. The free storage with the monthly subscription is not enough sometimes.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Being able to create a global network with programs we offer at our school. Zoom has numerous benefits. We use it on a weekly basis. It has allowed us to grow clients and students, having access to people outside of our geographic location.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I believe Zoom offers a free version. Definitely give that a try. You can get a lot of its great features using that, but monthly subscriptions are also affordable for business.
Zoom Just Works, for Conferences, Product Demonstrations, Customer Support, and So Much More
What do you like best about the product?
Screen sharing is easy, and very responsive. You can use the chat window to exchange messages with the whole group, or to send private messages to one or more participants. Chat sessions are automatically saved. All or part of a meeting can be recorded, and the recording is a standard MP4 file that you can keep or share. You can mute your microphone if you need to say something private or answer a phone call.
What do you dislike about the product?
Audio is occasionally and intermittently erratic, sounding like a record is being played at the wrong speed. The control panel occasionally hides itself, and the main window sometimes shrinks drastically and unexpectedly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
About the only thing afforded by traditional remote support programs that you cannot do with Zoom is file transfer, but there are plenty of ways to get around that limitation for remote support and other file sharing needs. This enables me to use it for internal support issues, in addition to supporting paying customers, conducting product demonstrations, internal brainstorming sessions, etc.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you contemplate using it with HubSpot, you will want a company account.
So much better than Teams
What do you like best about the product?
Meetings are generated with an easy way for anyone to connect in- luddites who want to call in, all the way to conference room setups. It's seriously one click for most people to join, or one click and an "allow." I can have scheduled recurring meetings, I can meet on demand, and I can easily send meeting invites to internal and external users.
What do you dislike about the product?
During a meeting, the on-screen controls are sometimes hard to locate. Especially when using a bargain bin keyboard/trackpad combo on a conference room screen. I wish it were easier to use Zoom as a conference call host - or that they differentiated a "No camera" meeting somehow in the invite.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are able to allow people to stay on our team who needed to move for family reasons. Without reliable video/conferencing, they wouldn't have been able to stay on the team. With Zoom they can continue contributing.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Zoom allows you to pay for what you need - we have a mix of pro and free accounts, and are able to get everything we need done that way. It's hard to imagine a more professional yet cost effective way to videoconference both internally and externally.
Intuitive and Powerful, but Overpriced
What do you like best about the product?
I really like the intuitive UI of Zoom Workplace. It's seamless for any user to join a meeting and share video notes or the desktop during a conference, which helps us collaborate across teams. The integrations with Slack and email are also very handy. I'm currently learning about the AI features in Zoom Workplace, and I see potential in how we might use them.
What do you dislike about the product?
Zoom AI features come with a learning curve. Improving the documentation or providing video tutorials would be handy. The admin configuration can be tricky because there are so many settings and updates to make. Also, Zoom has become very expensive, and reducing the price would be great.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Zoom Workplace for meetings, enhancing collaboration in hybrid teams, and integrating it with email and calendar. The AI features offer insights and transcripts, making remote teamwork more effective.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's great software for scheduling meetings. The open-source version is available, where the user can set up meetings up to 30 minutes.
