Yogesh Kumar Mali - PeerSpot reviewer
A good and decent meeting platform that stores recordings of meetings
We use Zoho Meeting for booking meetings and demo calls for product review updates The most valuable feature of Zoho Meeting is how it stores recordings and how we can get those recordings by order. It may be a network issue, but sometimes the video gets blurred when we are on a Zoho Meeting…
Kallol Chaudhuri - PeerSpot reviewer
Helped us tremendously in collaborating with each other and getting our work done and offers the breakout rooms feature.
We are a team located across various locations. Not in the same geographic location. We are distributed. And it's not possible to physically travel and meet people. Sometimes it's simply not possible. But Zoom has helped us tremendously in collaborating with each other and getting our work done. Without Zoom, it would have been very, very difficult. The breakout rooms feature is also helpful. For example, I have a meeting attended by hundreds of people and want to create subgroups. I typically use it for different role-play scenarios during training if we are trying to conduct some training on presentation skills. So there's a large group, which is initially trained by an instructor. Then you get instructions that the room will be split into smaller breakout rooms. I'll give you a topic, and you'll practice in these smaller groups. That's one way I use it. So it's like a simulation of a real brainstorming session I'd have in a physical space.

Quotes from Members

Pros

"One of the most valuable features of Zoho Meeting is how user-friendly it is. It also has some security features."
"The API is much more flexible than other platforms."
"The most valuable feature of Zoho Meeting is how it stores recordings and how we can get those recordings by order."
"I like the tool's video call feature."
"The solution is much better and more reliable than Microsoft Teams or Webex."
"The screen sharing capability is useful for teaching."
"Zoom is a product that offers users convenience, so you won't be left out of any meetings, especially when others need or prefer to hold meetings on Zoom."
"The solution is stable and reliable."
"I don't have any issue with the pricing."
"Screen Sharing is the most valuable feature in Zoom for me."
"Primarily during the period of problematic travel, the solution enabled us to connect with customers, clients and even colleagues and to share our thoughts, ideas and information."
"The tool has made remote work possible for us. It's not just about the technology but also about staying connected with colleagues. ..........I can share documents directly in the chat during meetings, which is helpful, especially when collaborating with my project team. Before, I had to download the chat manually, but now I can see all the chat directly in the Zoom application. Plus, I can automatically save the meeting chat to my computer."
 

Cons

"They do not have phone support."
"I would like to see a chat feature in the solution."
"Maybe the price could be lowered, but people will want a lower price forever."
"It may be a network issue, but sometimes the video gets blurred when we are on a Zoho Meeting video call."
"Sometimes when I try to share my screen in a conference room, I have to click the share button more than once. This happens around fifty percent of the time."
"Zoom also has an issue with logins. For some reason, especially with institutional accounts, it is common to get kicked out and verification processes don't work all the time."
"Maybe the UI could be improved a bit."
"The solution could be a bit more user-friendly."
"Zoom could improve by having more tools."
"The solution is pricier than its competitors."
"Considering the main function of Zoom, it should make the video functioning part a little bit more friendly."
"The solution can improve by having the option to be able to lock the primary speaker on high definition the entire time. Additionally, it would be a benefit to have easy Zoom room-like features for individuals using lightboards. There should be quick invitations and integration with Slack and Outlook."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Compared to other solutions, the price is not the lowest, but I can say it's competitive. My organization pays for a yearly license for Zoho."
"The product is not costly like other applications."
"In India, Professional Zoho Meeting for up to 10 participants costs INR 125 per month, and for up to 250 participants, it costs INR 750 per month if billed annually."
"There is a free version available with time limits."
"I am making yearly payments. So, I am paying 250 USD a year."
"There are paid and free personal accounts for Zoom."
"A licensing fee is required."
"The cost of Zoom is approximately $150 USD annually."

LucidChart vs LucidSpark for brainstorming sessions over Zoom
Hi @Krista Thompson ​ - Yes, LucidSpark is a much more nimble and, in some ways, user-friendly tool than LucidChart. LucidSpark is designed to do a better job managing multiple users participating ...
What is your experience regarding pricing and costs for Zoom?
There is a concern about the free version's forty-five-minute limit. For education use, having more affordable access through institutions would be beneficial.
