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.

"The most valuable feature of Zoho Meeting is how it stores recordings and how we can get those recordings by order."
"All you need is a laptop or mobile device and a connection to the internet."
"Zoom is useful for virtual meetings."
"It is very quick to get a meeting started."
"Some of the most valuable features are the performance and ease of use. Also, since everyone knows about and is familiar with Zoom, you don't need to teach them how to use it."

Cons

"They do not have phone support."
"It may be a network issue, but sometimes the video gets blurred when we are on a Zoho Meeting video call."
"Maybe the price could be lowered, but people will want a lower price forever."
"I would like to see a chat feature in the solution."
"The only thing that I can't get to work well is putting one of those little fancy wallpaper picture screens behind me during meetings so that I don't show my house or the room I'm attending from. Everyone is basically working remotely at this point. It would help to just have a neutral professional background for meetings that's easy to add."
"Zoom could be more secure."
"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."
"The interface requires some slight improvement in that it could better show the meeting attendees."
"Zoom can improve the user-friendliness of the management when you are doing a webinar."
"In the next release, I would like to see an easily accessible bandwidth feature so that you can see how much data you've used on a particular call."
"Zoom should improve aspects of its security."
"It is difficult to collaborate."
 

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."
"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."
"The product is not costly like other applications."
"For personal use, I use the free version of Zoom, so I haven't paid anything."
"The cost for Zoom is reasonable."
"We are on an annual license for the solution. The price of the solution could be less expensive."
"Zoom is free."
"We have an annual subscription to the solution. The price could be reduced."
"The price of Zoom is a bit expensive."
"I am using the free version of the solution. However, it has a time limit of 45 minutes for meetings. We do not have meetings longer than 45 minutes, it is fine for us."
"I use Zoom's free version."
