Zoom is the king of remote work communication
What do you like best about the product?
I like how Zoom is not intrusive to my other work activities. It seamlessly integrates with all of my other work apps like Slack, Krisp, and many others. I've only used MS Teams once, and the experience was not up to Zooms standard.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only issue that I routinely run into is the 40 min meeting limit. Though, this is more of an issue with my IT department/subscription than it is an issue with Zoom. 40 minutes is generous for a free acount.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
My company and team are fully remote, so Zoom allows us to communicate and have meetings effectively. In the rare event that some folks are in the office, we even have Zoom Rooms equipped with cameras and mics to communicate with others who are still remote.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Decide if you will have meetings that rountinely last longer than 40 minutes -- if so, you'll want to upgrade to their paid teirs.
Easy to work with in any circumstance
What do you like best about the product?
Zoom is easy to work with and provides an excellent channel of communication from anywhere and any device. It's pretty seamless to set up and host conferences. You can have voice-only meetings or video conferences with anyone anywhere. Conferences can contain up to 100 participants, and you can invite people during the forum at any time if you have not reached the limit. You can have conferences using any device if you have Zoom installed on them. You can easily cast Zoom to a larger screen or projector during webinars if necessary if you and some other participants are in the same room. You can send DMs to anyone on Zoom if there's no time to host a conference. DMs provide a quick and easy way to communicate through cross-platform text messages. For instance, you can start a conversation on your computer and continue it on your phone or tablet as Zoom saves all the messages on the cloud. Zoom provides up to 1080 quality for video conferences, making it the best software for virtual conversations and work scenarios.
You can benefit from using Zoom if your work involves interacting with people throughout the day. Zoom helps you ensure that you're always on top of all your meetings by providing multiple means for you to receive alerts. You can install Zoom's add-on on the web browser to see a quick view of all your upcoming meetings for that day. You can also import your contacts from services such as Outlook and Gmail to send conference invitations to people. You can also use Zoom on your browser to host meetings in advance and connect with people. Zoom is the most used software for work as it has excellent features to help people be more productive and integrate different applications.

What do you dislike about the product?
Zoom's screen sharing has a limit on the FPS, which can make videos stutter or cause desync in audio. Many computers and laptops today come with a 144hz monitor, on which it should be easy to view videos of higher quality.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Zoom for conferences and sharing screens. With the ongoing pandemic, it is risky to go out in crowded places such as our company's building and work there. We work from home and base all our activities on Zoom. Our team offers app development services on Windows and Android for customers and other businesses. Since this is not a singlehanded job, we use Zoom to work together. We have conferences to discuss and create itineraries on our goals and how we want to get there. Outside of meetings, we can communicate using DMs, which are quick and available at all times. When working on applications for Windows or Android, we can screen share on Zoom easily, which everyone can view if they're in the conference. Since Zoom supports screen sharing on any device, including phones, we no longer have to rely on emulators to run Android applications for conducting tests and debugging. We can expand on Zoom's features through the app store, where there are a plethora of different apps you can integrate for implementing new features. You can use management software such as Asana on Zoom to manage your work without leaving the software and use Zoom simultaneously to have conferences during work sessions.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I'd be lost without Zoom aiding me daily to work from home and have conferences with my team. It acts as a complete software using which I can meet all my work needs conveniently. Zoom doesn't have a free trial but is free from the start. Its quality and features are excellent, and it's quick to set up.
Meet online reliably
What do you like best about the product?
Zoom is an excellent software for online meetings and remote work. It's straightforward and has an intuitive user interface, making it easier to navigate and set up. You can send messages to people at any time, even if they're offline. Zoom will send notifications to the last device they signed in on so that they can receive alerts for any new messages on their phones if they're not on their computer. Besides being a cross-platform tool for messaging, you can also attend online meetings on your phone and other devices. You can schedule appointments through any platform and have sessions with people from anywhere in the world. You can share files on Zoom with a pretty sizeable limit, eliminating the need for third-party hosting and email attachments during your meetings. Zoom acts as an all-in-one software, minimizing your dependence on multiple software to complete your work. Screen-sharing and presentation-sharing are two of the essential features on Zoom that anyone can use. Screen-sharing is extraordinarily straightforward and allows high-quality video broadcasting of any software or window from your computer screen. In addition, you can screen-share from your mobile and tablet, making it convenient to work on Android and iOS applications alongside your team.
Zoom is second to none for training programs. Whether for schools, colleges, internships, or projects, Zoom provides the means to discuss and work together with people. Through screen-sharing and other collaboration features, Zoom makes working possible despite everyone not being in the same room or office. One of the critical features of Zoom is the ability to record anything. You can record calls, meetings, screen-sharing sessions, and presentations. Zoom allows everyone who attends the arrangements to view the recording for reference or to create reports.

What do you dislike about the product?
Zoom's major drawback is the limit on group meetings if you're using it for free. You can override this limit by rehosting the discussion after the duration ends or having one person buy the subscription and become the permanent host for all future meetings.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Zoom to call, meet, collaborate, and train interns. It's been a core part of my work-from-home life because of coronavirus. I love that I can productively work and talk to my colleagues face-to-face through video during work. Despite the long distance and not seeing one another in person, Zoom makes it convenient for us to work without any stress. The various features Zoom provides, such as file-sharing, screen-sharing, presenting, and recording, make it easy for us to stay on the same wavelength with our intentions and ideas. Our routine tasks and projects are quick to complete as we can work together with excellent communication all-around and work at our own pace since we're working at home. Zoom runs 24/7, so even during off-hours, we can contact one another on the phone app to discuss and make plans for the projects.
Zoom also makes it easier to supervise, train, and assist interns through meetings, video calls, messages, etc. We have multiple Zoom rooms, one of which we use exclusively for the interns. There, we can leave messages and have sessions with tools such as hand-raising that they can use to ask any questions to understand better how we work. Zoom rooms are an excellent way to split and divide our work into multiple smaller units and assign different sets of teams for them.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Zoom is incredibly helpful for online meetings and working with colleagues and interns. I have an easier time supervising our interns on Zoom than on-site. Many tools such as screen-sharing greatly assist in training them and answering any questions in unison. For projects, my colleagues and I are having an easier time staying productive on Zoom as we can manage our time more efficiently and complete many tasks within a couple of sessions because we're always on the same page.
One of the best video conferencing softwares
What do you like best about the product?
I have been using Zoom since 2020, mainly for virtual college clases and team projects. I have to say I like how intuitive this program is; the first days I had to use this, it was easy to find the options for camera, microphone, and screen sharing. I like that you can see the chatbox and meeting participants simultaneously. This last aspect doesn't happen in Google Meets, which my company uses for virtual work. I also like that it warns you if your connection is unstable because of my slow internet.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only thing I dislike about this program is that if you accidentally turn on your microphone, Zoom doesn't show you a message about this. Other video conferencing software warns you if your microphone is on but sharing background noises and not your voice.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The main problem Zoom solved for me was the virtual meetings I had to run due to the Pandemic. This program keeps being very useful for this reason. I like virtual meetings rather than in-person ones. That is why my college and business performance increased, and Zoom was part of it.
Smooth calls, lots of options
What do you like best about the product?
Zoom has a lot of features, but I pretty much just use it for its video call capabilities. It has pretty smooth video and audio quality, and it integrates with slack and Google calendars which makes it easy to send out invite links.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some of the settings are hard to find, and the default settings are kind of restrictive. For instance, I can't figure out how to allow users to copy text from the chat. If someone sends me a link or a piece of information in the chat, I've had to resort to keeping the chat open in one window and retyping what I wanted to copy in another. I also wish it integrated with Google calendar a little better. I wish that all scheduled zoom calls associated with my email would show on the zoom homepage. It seems kind of random which ones it recognizes as my meetings for the day.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Zoom is the leader in video calls, so clients are familiar with getting on zoom calls. It's secure and reliable, and has lots of features like polls and reactions. I use the slack integration to start zoom calls in a message.
One of the best Video conferencing platform
What do you like best about the product?
Zoom provide all basic facilities that we need for formal business video calls. Be it sharing file, privacy settings, filter to cover background and much more.
What do you dislike about the product?
I have been using Zoom in our organization since one year and didn't find any such thing which I don't like. But if Zoom can add custom design filter and allow basic call with more participants would be great.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Zoom gives us opportunity to connect with all colleagues and feel like we're in office. We can add number of participants and all facilities provided which we need for video conferencing.
Best video conference application
What do you like best about the product?
high-definition resolution with good quality of video conference
What do you dislike about the product?
If Zoom is not used properly, then any person can join that meeting without our permission
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
conducted many meetings and very useful for my kid's online classes
Zoom is the all around best Video Conferencing platform available!
What do you like best about the product?
The first thing I love about this software is the virtual backgrounds available, both built-in and custom. These allow you to place a scene instead of using your actual environment, which might be messy. The keyboard shortcuts are great when you do not want to utilize a mouse. The Zoom platform also supports 3rd party apps/plugins, which can be very important in some instances. Another cool feature is the audio transcribe feature. The ability to enable or disable audio/video for participants is a great feature.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only dislike I have is audio cutting in and out sometimes when navigating the platform. This does not occur often and is a very minor issue. Improvements in load time would be helpful.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I cannot say I have experienced any real problems worth mentioning. The benefits that we have realized using the Zoom platform have been instrumental in moving our company forward, especially during the pandemic.
Zoom is a good platform to conduct and schedule your online meetings
What do you like best about the product?
Zoom is free to work with, helpful for conferences and calls. You can utilize Zoom from any place, whether it is ones cell phone or even pc. It is possible to talk with individuals over the web to participate in video conventions and also web conferencing sessions collectively. The User interface is easy to get familiar with. You can utilize it to have demonstrations, screen-sharing, as well as webinars with no lag causing interruptions. Zoom can make distant work complete because it enables sharing files, an essential attribute that makes sharing details and transferring information straightforward.
What do you dislike about the product?
With this application, we don't have any dislike for its performance and reliability but the only one thing I don't like about it, that they should increase the time for a meeting in trial edition to 60 min. atleast
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It assists us to connect with our customers anywhere in any region while using this platform. It is the most effective application to connect and share our documents online with our customers as well as with our employees residing in any place. Our customers are quite happy with our work since we are utilizing Zoom and it's also free our customers are connected to us at any time making use of zoom.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I suggest this platform conduct online meetings and conferences with your customers and vendors in any part of the world.
Most convenient and preferable video conferencing software
What do you like best about the product?
I like its the ability to make video runs smoothly while you add your desired background. It solves my many hassles as many times I will be working from home and couldn't show a nice working background of office hence I need to use virtual background that works really good on Zoom.
What do you dislike about the product?
The prices are quite high for Zoom so I need to use only a single account for my whole team of 20 members. People use it as per their requirement and sometimes it makes things weired.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I'm solving the problem of connecting with the team working remotely, my field sales team, my client, collaborators, and investors as well. I'm also solving a problem of having nice really office by using virtual background. I do use Zoom for conference calls to connect with my customers by organizing a Webinar kind of thing.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would highly recommend using Zoom for best video conferencing experience.
