Friendly user interface, simple navigation; suitable for small and large webinars
One thing that could be improved is that there is a 5,000 person limit. Exceeding that requires an additional fee and requires purchasing additional cloud space. It's difficult because you never know on the day how many people will join. The reporting could also be improved because it sometimes requires putting in a request for additional information. If reporting were more in-depth that could be avoided. I think the next release could include something related to bandwidth optimization because I log in from three devices, iPhone, mobile and laptop to check. There was some lag with the mobile.

Cons

"Bandwidth optimization could be increased."
"The solution needs a more modern interface."
"I have had small issues with the virtual backgrounds. I would like to see improvements with this feature."
"Compared to Skype and Teams, Zoom is missing one feature, and that's the ability to call people. In Teams, I can call anyone I want. It's like a telephone. I can do the same on Skype, but I have to send a link in Zoom."
"When you join a meeting in Zoom, you may feel it is difficult to find some windows until you click a few buttons to help you eventually get to the window you want to see."
"The updating feature of Zoom needs to be improved."
"Zoom definitely has to be more secure, but I can't think of any anything else to change."
"I'd like to have the recording functionality in the free version so that we don't need any licensing in order to access it."
"The stability has been good but it could still improve. However, I have not found a better solution."
"The technical support is very bad."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We paid $1,800 for five webinars, which is the standard fee. If you require support there is a $300 additional fee, extra attendees is an additional fee, integration is an additional fee, etc. All these extras could add on another $2,500 which was not in our budget."
"I am using the free version of Zoom."
"For personal use, I use the free version of Zoom, so I haven't paid anything."
"We are on an annual license for the solution. The price of the solution could be less expensive."
"There is a yearly license for this solution. I would like it if they offered better prices."
"As an organization, we are paying a license fee for Zoom. Personally, I use the free version."
"The pricing is reasonable."
"I am not paying any licensing costs for the solution."
"There is a subscription to use the solution."
