Easy setup and an a la carte pricing model
The solution needs a more modern interface. One of our biggest complaints is that we don't have the ability to dynamically push our interface to participants. Adobe Connect is an older technology, but it allows us to push our own layout and design to participants. One of the solution's strengths is that it's web-only but that is also a weakness. It is not a software solution but is browser-based which has its advantages and disadvantages. Zoom has become such a force that its ease of use surpasses ON24.

Improved collaboration costs have been reduced while daily stand-ups and events run more efficiently
If I were to discuss how Zoom Workplace Business can be improved, I feel that it is providing good service overall; however, the scaling aspect could be enhanced. Even though it has great scalability, if they can make it even more scalable, it would be really good. Also, while the integration is good, with the growth of AI, advancing the AI part to enable other workflows within the application would be beneficial. Those are some observations from my part, but otherwise, I feel everything is all right. I would love to see advanced AI integrations with major players such as Google and Amazon. Talking about scalability, Zoom Workplace Business is definitely a scalable solution, accommodating up to 1,000 people at once. However, when exceeding that number, the bandwidth may be disturbed and the latency may reduce; I have witnessed that issue occurring during large events, which is why I highlighted this part.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Friendly user interface and simple navigation."
"The solution works well with third-party integrations."
"The solution is stable."
"I rate Zoom as a seven out of ten. This is because it is much easier to use than Microsoft Teams."
"It is a game-changer for virtual communication, and it is incredibly user-friendly, making it a go-to choice for remote meetings, webinars, and online collaboration."
"The solution is great it meets all of our needs, most people have the solution, and it is convenient to use."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to connect to and conduct meetings."
"Ability to record interviews."
"Zoom provides different background screen functionalities for privacy protection."

Cons

"Bandwidth optimization could be increased."
"The solution needs a more modern interface."
"The interface could be more user-friendly."
"I can't speak of any shortcomings. It worked fine."
"The stability has been good but it could still improve. However, I have not found a better solution."
"The price must be improved."
"I find while using Zoom sometimes there is a lot of disturbance while on the call. There is a lot of network issues, and sometimes the screen freezes, and you have no way of figuring out what went wrong. You have to restart the computer all over again, or you lose some of the words that someone was saying during the meeting, such as what the person is trying to say in the midst of that conversation. Additionally, there have been times it has disconnected and was not able to start."
"Zoom lacks dashboards, more could be included."
"I do not like Zoom as much as Microsoft Teams. I am not sure what is better about Zoom."
"I would appreciate it if the updates weren't so frequent."
 

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."
"We have subscribed to a package for Zoom and it is a monthly payment."
"We are using the free version of the solution."
"The price is $149 USD yearly."
"Zoom is a very cheaply priced video conferencing solution, and using this product has saved our business a lot of expense."
"I use the free version of Zoom that is available for download."
"Zoom has a less expensive subscription than other solutions such as Cisco Webex."
"The solution is affordable."
"I rate the product's pricing a seven out of ten. It is not affordable for small businesses."
