Head of solutions at a healthcare company with 10,001+ employees
Is excellent for video conferencing, with a very high usage rate
There are a few technical aspects that might need assistance, such as enabling Vidyo inside a web browser as opposed to using it via an SDK in an app. Occasionally, issues can arise when using video conferencing in third-party applications. Feedback from developers could be beneficial for improving these areas.

Team Lead at GE
Unified communication has transformed our collaboration and consistently boosts project delivery
The best features Zoom Workplace Business offers include screen sharing, clear video and audio, online meetings, large-scale events, call management, mobile apps, unified communication platform, and collaboration. The feature I find myself using the most is an AI-powered collaboration platform that is used to streamline communication, increase employee engagement, optimize in-person time, and improve productivity. The screen sharing is very effective and a helpful tool where we are able to screen share with our colleagues and discuss different tasks and project management ideas. Collaboration has become very efficient, and remote working has also become efficient and prevalent in my organization. We have been able to save a lot of time using Zoom Workplace Business. It has been a game-changer. Zoom Workplace Business elevates the experience with Zoom AI Companion included at no additional cost. It is designed to help employees be more productive, collaborate better, enhance their skills, and unlock time savings.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"There is no reason not to use cloud-based solutions these days (such as Zoom, Fuze, GoToMeeting or even Lync/Office365)."
"I think for the companies with remote offices, they will experience a serious saving on travel costs."
"Vidyo is excellent for video conferencing, with a very high usage rate alongside Epic Solutions."
"Zoom is the priority because other applications for communication and meetings have tricky and not user-friendly interfaces."
"During the pandemic, we really did use Zoom a lot; it's very easy to use, it is very stable, it has good quality, you can use it with any device, and it's a great tool."
"The installation was easy."
"The sharing and recording, are the most valuable features of Zoom."
"Zoom has positively impacted my organization by helping me stay in touch with my customers and my team, allowing us to quickly figure out things in a world where you can't really speak on the phone anymore."
"The ability to share content is a great feature."
"It always works, and they try to appeal to what the user wants. They added features like background music for those people who use Zoom for online church services. They try to make the solution more useful for the user. For example, I tried to sell WebEx to a church, but I also gave them Zoom for a trial. They were impressed with that because that was the feature they were looking for."
"The most valuable features of Zoom are simplicity and reliability."
 

Cons

"There are a few technical aspects that might need assistance, such as enabling Vidyo inside a web browser as opposed to using it via an SDK in an app."
"As a partner, I don't have direct access to Vidyo support document resourses."
"I have had small issues with the virtual backgrounds. I would like to see improvements with this feature."
"I think there are aspects that need to be developed. While I haven't identified specific areas for improvement yet, I believe it could add many new AI features, which is why I wouldn't give it 10 out of 10."
"Zoom could be more secure."
"Zoom meetings can only have 1,000 attendees. For more than 1,000, you must buy the Zoom Webinar product."
"Sometimes the free version is limited to forty-five minutes. For students, it would be beneficial to have access through the university for longer meetings."
"Opportunities for improvement for Zoom Workplace Business include the inability to edit follow-up emails sent via Zoom, as there is standard text and very few options to add extra links or other elements."
"Recently, most of the people in my organization have not been able to dial in using the telephone number and have been required to join meetings using their devices."
"The paid version is quite expensive. There's no middle ground between free and paid."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"Zoom has a less expensive subscription than other solutions such as Cisco Webex."
"As an organization, we are paying a license fee for Zoom. Personally, I use the free version."
"The solution's pricing is good."
"We are on an annual license for the solution. The price of the solution could be less expensive."
"We do not incur any licensing costs, as we use the free version."
"There are both free and paid versions available."
"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."
"The tool's pricing is reasonable. I think we get discounts as an organization."
