Zoom - Solutions for all your virtual meetings
What do you like best about the product?
As a faculty member, zoom has been great host virtual class meetings. I can preset Breakout Rooms or poll questions. I also have the flexibility to change the groups during class based on attendance. I can control access to the class meeting with passwords or a waiting room; and i can control the sound of the class and mute students upon entry. There are several features to have students engage with the material and screens can easily be shared.
What do you dislike about the product?
I that zoom fatigue is real and its easy for students to disengage from class content. I wish there were a requirement to add video for all students, but i also understand the ramifications of that option.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Pre-pandemic, Zoom allowed for group meetings without having to find a physical space to gather. This remains true today. Zoom allows for physical distancing while still working on projects or tasks with the same people in the virtual room.
Zoom Review
What do you like best about the product?
Zoom is such an outstanding platform. This conferencing app has made life much easier for many people. It is very user friendly and easy to navigate. I like that Zoom is scalable. Therefore, you can choose a plan best suited to you at the moment and go up when your business grows. If you do not have any money, you can choose the free version, which gives you 40 minutes of free meeting time at once. I also like that apart from the main meeting, you can break out into other rooms to have discussions in smaller groups.
What do you dislike about the product?
There isn’t anything about Zoom that I particularly dislike because it is so simple and easy to use.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Zoom supports large audiences for companies and organizations with many members. I like that it can be streamed on other platforms such as Facebook. The meetings can be recorded and reviewed on a later day. Zoom connects people from all other the globe in one virtual space at the same time.
Zoom is one of the best tools out there
What do you like best about the product?
You can gather lots of people without having the need to always keep accepting outside people from the company. Also the presentation mode is so much clearer than any other platforms out there
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes when there are too many people around it can be a bit messy and lag a bit. Also chat functionalities sometimes are not very much noticeable which can make it harder for the host to understand if someone is talking or not
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
This is the go-to option in my company for any time of meetings. At fridays we have a company meeting and we use zoom to host it which is a very nice moment to share some feedback and development on the state of the company
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Nothing else to add as of now
Reliable and functional video conferencing software
What do you like best about the product?
I like to use Zoom for both small meetings and big lecture-style presentations. Hopping in and out of meetings is seamless. Features such as breakout rooms and participant management by the host are very useful for conferences, workshops, and classroom instruction.
What do you dislike about the product?
In my opinion, several features can be added to the app to make it more useful for workshops and classes. For example, pre-assigning students to breakout rooms does not always work (depends on how students log in) as desired. I also think co-hosts should have the same "power" over a meeting as a host.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The main problems I am solving with Zoom have to do with remote instruction for university-level students. Using Zoom, I can conduct remote instruction and incorporate more interactive activities using the available features.
Good videoconference tool
What do you like best about the product?
Zoom is free and easy to use. I can use it for my personal meeting and when it's one-on-one, I can use it for more than 40 minutes without any problem. I never really had any big major problem
What do you dislike about the product?
You can pay for an account that allows you to have meetings with more people for more than 40 minutes. Also, sometimes when I click on a zoom link zoom automatically downloads the app. The thing is that I already have the app. Moreover, some people don't use it often and sometimes it bugs when that person doesn't have an account or the app.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
While working from home, zoom allows me to meet clients online without any problem. Anyone can use zoom even client who use other platform like Microsoft teams or google meet
Good basic functionality, familiar to many users
What do you like best about the product?
- Familiar to most people post-COVID
- Mobile app works well
- Email notifications if someone has joined a meeting you're hosting before you've launched the meeting

What do you dislike about the product?
-I'm not a fan of the UI; it always feels like Zoom is designed to be the only thing you're doing while using Zoom, whereas I'm usually working in the background part of my meetings. It isn't as convenient to multi-task and multi-monitor and some other meeting platforms
- Standalone item without overlapping tools: we use Microsoft Teams primarily for our meeting software, and I enjoy the fact that it's part of our suite of other products we're using as a Microsoft-based environment. If Zoom was "part of" the other programs I'm using, I'd pick it more often!

- Meeting platform that less-tech-savvy partners can easily use
- Tool that can be used with minimal setup; if I need to do a video call with a personal contact on short notice, I can register a Zoom account and be hosting a meeting in mere minutes

Una de las plataformas/aplicaciones de videoconferencia más amigables para el usuario y fáciles de entender.
What do you like best about the product?
The interface is so easy to navigate through, making the user experience a nice journey. It's very UX friendly even to not so digital people and that's great!!!!
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike that sometimes the main window and the small one with the different participants are separated. I'd rather have them as only one window so I can move it to another screen without getting it split.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am solving WFH and not having to go to in-person meetings as frequently as we used to before the pandemic. It's been very helpful, even more the fact that many people can join and there are no small limits.
Good video conferencing platform.
What do you like best about the product?
The internet bandwidth it takes is better than any other video conferencing platform quality of audio is good when compared to other platform can be improved by adding reply to features for messages.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing much can be improved by adding reply to by mentioning a particular message because in group call there will be n number messages which we cannot highlight them.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Team meetings and client meetings helps alot in resolving remote issues by debugging them with screen share sessions and helps in presentations with going to onsite.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would suggest to go ahead with zoom as it easy to use with all the required features.
The best Video Conferencing Software I Have Ever Seen
What do you like best about the product?
Zoom is a software where one can start or join a conferance just with a click. Here I have purchased the premium plan for 1 year and it helped me a lot to manage my business meetings. It supports more than 500 participants in a single meeting which helped me a lot. The virtual backgrounds are very useful to hide your dumb background just with a solid colour cloth behind you. The screen sharing is very advanced and it helped me a lot to share my presentations to all. It also supports the meeting recording even in the cloud directly. Thus I recommend Zoom to everyone who meed a video conferencing software in this pandemic situation.
What do you dislike about the product?
I found some disadvantages of zoom also after using it for more than a year. First of all it consumes more data than other conferencing software like Google meet. Moreover the plans of Zoom could be a bit less costly, then it could be affordable to all. And lastly the system requirements of zoom is very high so u need above average specifications to use it properly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have used zoom to manage my meetings in the pandemic situation from the comfort of home. It really helped me to manage all my works and employees properly from my home in the "not so favourable" pandemic situation.
Good software, which has potential to be improved
What do you like best about the product?
This is a very effective software for meetings, online training, and online events. The software runs seamlessly, It is available on a variety of platforms including web, apple (ios), android, and windows, It is secure, reliable, and affordable.
What do you dislike about the product?
You can’t easily integrate it with other apps, but you can export a recording to a file. It is not as flexible as other platforms, also the app would be better if it were more flexible or if would be better if it had more options for customization.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are solving the problem of “How do we get everyone in the office together, we are solving the problem of “How do we keep our employees connected and productive while working remotely? And with Zoom, we keep our customers connected.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Be aware that not everyone is going to have a positive experience of using Zoom. There are a lot of issues that need time to be fixed. Zoom is not for every use case. But it works perfect as a video conferencing platform that is designed for long meeting or sales calls.
