Zoom Reviews

I use Zoom for scheduling work meeting purposes.

The product's most valuable features are chat and video streaming.

There must be an option to ask permission from the host to record the Zoom meeting. 

We have been using Zoom for more than a year. We are using the latest version.

I rate Zoom's stability a nine out of ten.

The product is highly scalable. I rate its scalability an eight out of ten. Our organization has more than ten users, and we use Zoom at least once a week. I might plan to increase the usage depending on the business requirements.

I have used Skype before. Later, I switched to Zoom, which is more convenient, easy to use, and set up. It has multiple options for chat. It also has more features overall compared to Skype.

The initial setup is easy. I rate the process a nine out of ten. It takes ten minutes to complete. I implement the updates manually.

I rate the product's pricing a seven out of ten. It is not affordable for small businesses.

I have evaluated Microsoft Teams. In comparison, Zoom is convenient to use.

I rate Zoom an eight out of ten.

We use Zoom for meetings, conferencing, and presentation purposes. We use it for end-user management as well.

Zoom has all the essential features.

The platform's feature for screen sharing needs improvement. We should be able to pause it while checking emails or messages in a meeting room, similar to Webex.

We have been using Zoom for a couple of years.

It is a stable product.

We have 4,000 to 5,000 Zoom users in our company. It works fine in terms of scalability. We have plans to increase the number of users.

Different organizations use different collaboration tools. I use Zoom as it is easy to use, and my current organization uses it. I use Webex and Teams as well.

The initial setup is easy. It requires five to ten minutes to complete. We need to download it on our system, register, and install it.

We implemented the product in-house.

I recommend Zoom to others and rate it an eight out of ten.

I use this solution for chat, video calls, meetings, basically for any interaction with people. I'm a network architect. 

Sharing content is a great feature. The audio quality was fantastic most of the time and I found it very user-friendly. 

Additional security would be welcome; an extra layer, whether it's an additional log-in requirement or something on the servers. There is always the possibility of meetings being hijacked or encryption going to China. It would also be helpful to have more control over who attends meetings. An additional feature I'd like to see would be a whiteboard which would be very productive for some of our meetings.

I've been using Zoom for many years. 

The stability is pretty impressive, especially taking into account the huge growth of the user community.

We previously used Skype but switched to Zoom because of the features and better quality. 

The initial setup was very simple, it was automatically installed on my laptop. 

I rate Zoom nine out of 10. 

We are using Zoom for the standard video communication.

The most valuable features of Zoom are its ease of use, screen sharing, and annotations.

The chat functionality in Zoom could improve.

I have been using Zoom for approximately two years.

The stability of Zoom has been fine.

We have approximately 100,000 users using this solution in my organization.

We have all of our software in our company pre-installed.

We have a technical team that does the implementation of our software.

I rate Zoom a ten out of ten.

Zoom has been a complete substitution for the personal face-to-face interview. Everything we have been doing through Zoom. Every work meeting, every customer meeting, every interview for jobs. Everything that has to do with the interactions with another person. We only use Zoom due to the fact that, even though we could use some other technologies like Teams or even WhatsApp or anything like that, we prefer to use Zoom as we have the control of what is recorded and exactly what is going on in the meeting. We have been using it for every internal and external meeting - everything that we do. My agenda is just full of Zoom meetings. That is my life.

The most valuable aspect of the solution is the controls that you have for security. They have been enhanced a lot in the recent versions. When you are the owner of the meeting, you basically have control over everything. It is really important when you are in a situation in which someone tries to enter your meeting and he doesn't belong or doesn't identify him or herself. You can just easily remove them. 

Understanding the different options you have is easy. The identified users have to be allowed in with authentication. You will have people that are from the organization or from some other organization and you can ask for authentification or you can have a meeting in which anyone can join. Even so, at the moment you have the option of doing something that will give you control over the meeting. For me, that's one of the most useful things.

It's very simple to manage.

The solution is stable.

The scalability is good.

The solution is easy to set up.

We are entering into these meta universes of applications in which virtual reality is going to be very, very important. They're starting to explore some of those things by having options of creating templates that visualize a meeting room, for example. There are visualizations that give you the illusion that you are in the same place. However, there are many more things that they can do, and the room there is endless in terms of improvements.

There are ways that you can get information from the cameras and try to map something that could be more 3D and try to make it much more virtual in terms of creating a virtual world. That is an area that Zoom has been just been scratching the surface of. In the future, I expect they will have better UI.  

It would be great if there was a bit more camera control. For example, cropping the image, and improving the background remover features, which can be buggy right now.

I've been using the solution for five years or so.

It is very stable, even though it has issues such as dropping meetings occasionally. That said, that's anecdotal. It's something that might happen once every a hundred meetings or something like that. There have been glitches, however, it's not something that we are worried about.

In the beginning, scalability may have been an issue, as the pandemic hit and they went from zero to one million quite fast, however, that's mostly been resolved. 

Everybody in our company uses it right now.

We have tested for almost 2000 people internally as we have users on the webinar mode directly. The webinars that we are now doing for customers are on Zoom. That is in the tens of thousands of people. There is a limit for the meetings that we could hold in our version as the employee, however, there are versions within the company that is unlimited in terms of the people that it can hold. We have been doing very well with that technology in terms of the number of people we can handle. 

We used to use Cisco WebEx, however, everyone wanted to switch over to Zoom.

The problem we had with WebEx was the version that we were using was not up to date. There was always a requirement for a call with a phone for the audio, and for the video and the interaction was online. That was a big problem as there were no international calls. There was a way for you to receive a callback, however, that doesn't work all the time. The quality of the sound was not good for WebEx when you were using the phone. Zoom had a very good quality of sound. You can also stream music and have high-quality audio.

I also used Microsoft Teams in the past. I didn't care much for Teams. There are things that annoy me from Teams. I use it sometimes still as some customers are required to use Teams instead of Zoom. There is this situation in Teams in which you are not actually seeing all the pictures of the faces of the people. When you enter a meeting, you're just seeing a couple of them and then you have to go to participants to see them. The interface is also not as easy as Zoom in many ways. For me to get to the chat part is like a mystery.

I've used Goot Meet occasionally too. There are some lacking features and it's not as easy to use. Sometimes the share screen or the share sound for the computer doesn't work at all. Sometimes [you have to install plugins. It doesn't have a client install on the computer. It is not very useful for me. In that area, still Zoom is more advanced than the others.

The initial setup is really easy. In the beginning, they had some issues with the ports and some things. We had some issues with some customers in that, due to security reasons, they were not able to use Zoom. That was an issue, however, that was two years ago, and, largely due to the fact that it was such a massive problem at the time, it caused headaches for many people. Right now, however, it's one of the easiest solutions to deal with. 

Since it is a managed solution, a software as a service, everything seems to be completely taken care of by Zoom.

We are using the paid version of the solution. The exact costs are handled on a corporate level, however, I understand that if you just want to own a license for your small business or something like that, it's around $300 a year, which is very reasonable. It gives you a lot of features that are good for you, such as the storage of the meetings if you recorded on the cloud, which is something that you cannot do if you have the free version.

We're using the solution as a customer. It's our main tool right now.

We are using the most recent version of the solution.

I'd advise people that the change in the process of your work will be impacted by how you plan things. For instance, there are easier ways, when you apply best practices, to make your life easier. There is a button, for example, in Outlook in which you can just insert all the information for the Zoom meeting without having to plug in a link. Or you can actually create a specific unique meeting ID and you will not have any worries if you are always using your personal meeting room, that you will overlap with people entering into the meeting that you don't want.

I would rate the solution at a nine out of ten.

We use this solution as part of our corporate communications system. I'm principal CTO and we are customers of Zoom. 

It was easy to deploy Zoom and it's a product that was easily accepted throughout the company, even by our management team. Zoom is just very simple for the user and it works regardless of where you are and the device you're using. The ease of integration of the conference rooms for our leadership was probably the most valuable aspect. With WebEx or Teams where you need converters in the middle and things didn't always work, the leadership team was always complaining about those solutions. 

One issue I have is that there is no indicator on chats to let you know whether a message has been read so you're never sure if it's been seen. They could implement something like Whatsapp with the two check marks. I also think that the integration with Microsoft is not as good as it was with Jabber. It's not the end of the world but it could be better. In a similar vein, I think that when it comes to document sharing the integration could be improved.

I think that if your main focus is on communication between team members, especially with people working from home, this is a simple solution. We need to recognize that not everyone is an IT person and we're working with people at all levels in the company, whether they're in the field, the warehouses, or in fabrication. For all of them this is, quite honestly, more user-friendly than WebEx or Teams will ever be.

Based on our use cases, I rate this solution nine out of 10. 

Our primary use case for Zoom is for conducting meetings and attending virtual learning sessions.

The platform's most valuable features are collaborative video call and chat functionality.

The product's interface needs enhancement.

We have been using Zoom for many years.

It is a stable product. I rate it a ten out of ten.

The platform is capable of handling around many hundred users.

We used Microsoft Teams before.

Zoom is easy to install.

I implement the product myself. It's mostly an automated installation process.

We have to pay for the product's license.

I recommend stable, easy to use, and reliable. It has efficient security features as well. I rate it a nine out of ten.

I use Zoom for virtual meetings.

The standout feature of Zoom is its excellent connectivity, offering high-quality audio and video. Additionally, its familiarity stems from being an early adopter in the field of online communication during the onset of epidemics. Previously, I had used a different system for video conferences in another company, which primarily relied on room-based conferences rather than peer-to-peer video conferencing. However, with the need to communicate directly with peers, Zoom emerged as the first and preferred choice for me. Overall, I consider it the top option and the primary tool I use. Additionally, the solution has all the functionality I need.

In addition to Zoom, I frequently utilize Slack, and I particularly appreciate its huddle functionality. What I find appealing about Slack is the ability to simultaneously chat and have video capabilities. It would be beneficial if Zoom offered similar features integrated with some form of channel system, although I acknowledge that I am not involved in the product management aspect. Personally, I believe this integration would make Zoom even more compelling and engaging for users like myself.

I have been using Zoom for three to four years.

We have had some issues with the connection but this could be my ISP and not the solution.

The scalability of Zoom is good.

We have had a lot of users using the solution in the past.

I have used Webex and Zoom has better quality.

The initial setup of Zoom was not difficult. A corporate account can be more difficult. The time it takes for the implementation is quick, approximately 15 minutes.

I would recommend this solution to others.

I rate Zoom an eight out of ten.
