Zoom Workplace Business Reviews

We use Zoom for conference calls of a comparatively large scale. 

I rate Zoom as an eight out of ten, owing to the quality of its video and audio, its accountability, ease of use and intuitiveness. The UIs are very easy. Everything on Zoom is good. 

The technical support is very bad. If one is using Zoom SDK for building up his internal tool, then the support he can expect on a Mac OS is very bad. There will not be support for the latest version of the Xcode and development involvement. There are many challenges and integration is difficult. These are some of the issues which have been relayed to me by certain developers. 

There is an issue with the integrations with custom applications. If, say, I am using Zoom SDK for customizing a product, I would encounter difficulty in integrating it with one of my native products. The technical expertise and documentation provided is very poor and that won't help the developers integrate everything smoothly.

I have encountered certain difficulties with Zoom screen-sharing and multi-use of sharing. There should exist the ability to share for multiple users. 

Zoom's technical support is very bad. The technical documentation and expertise they provide is very poor and does not facilitate an entirely smooth integration by the developers. 

We integrated in-house. However, the responses we received to the many questions we posted on the Zoom developer portal were not good, lacking prioritization. 

In addition to the solution, we evaluated Zudy VINYL, but noticed that the packages they offer are a bit on the costly side. 

A friend of mine customized Zoom for one of his solutions. 

We are working with customers on multiple solutions, as we are part of a service provider company. We have the technology tools that our customers require.

Our Zoom use spans the entire organization. Mainly managers make use of it and sharing will be done with the team. We generally use Microsoft Teams for internal communication. 

I rate Zoom as an eight out of ten. 

Most of my organization uses Zoom. I'm in sales and everyone in this department uses it. Tech and sales use a combination of Zoom and Teams. Occasionally, we might use something like a Cisco WebEx when the customer requires it. For example, we deal with federal government clients and intelligence agencies, and they have strict requirements for communications security.

I'm pretty satisfied with Zoom's user interface.

My company uses the Zoom security setting that requires the host to admit users. The host often forgets to do that, so you sometimes have a lot of people sitting out there. It would be nice if Zoom made it obvious that somebody is in the waiting room. Also, Zoom could add the ability to have multiple users share screens.

I've been using Zoom for at least two years. 

Zoom does seem to use a fair amount of resources on your system. If you have other apps open, the audio can get really choppy sometimes if you try to do something else, like send an email. I did not notice this until just recently, so I don't know if this is something Zoom changed or if my system needs to be updated.

I've never had to use tech support for it. It just works.

Before we started using Zoom, we were using WebEx. Quite honestly, I think the reason the company switched was purely political.

I rate Zoom nine out of 10. 

I primarily use the solution for virtual meetings.

The solution is easy to use.

It's got a simple, easy-to-understand user interface.

The solution is stable. 

The product scales well.

The installation is very easy.

I cannot recall coming across any missing features. It works well enough.

I've never had any issues with the product itself. 

There were some security issues early on, however, they have fixed the problem, and now it is fine.

The solution could always use better performance. 

I've been using this solution for two years now. It's been a while. 

The stability is very good. It's reliable and works when you need it to. There are no bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze. 

You can scale this solution. If you need to expand it, you can do so in order to incorporate more people.

We have a few thousand users that use the product in our company currently. It's pretty widely used. 

I haven't had any issues with the product. Therefore, I've never spoken with technical support. I cannot comment on how helpful they would be, or how responsive due to never having dealt with them directly. 

I also use Microsoft Teams, and I prefer using that over Zoom.

The initial setup is not overly complex or difficult. It's quite straightforward and very simple. A user shouldn't have any problem with the process. 

I can handle the implementation myself. I do not need the assistance of an integrator or consultant. The entire deployment is very quick.

I don't have any details in regards to the licensing or the general cost. It's not an aspect of the solution I deal with. 

I'd rate the solution at an eight out of ten overall. I've mostly been happy with its capabilities. 

I would recommend the solution to other users or organizations. 

I mostly use the software for lectures and it has been really helpful. I use it for group studies, assignments, and business meetings.

My team and I had to finish a project within that period and since we couldn't meet, we usually collaborated on Zoom. We met with ourselves and sometimes with our supervisor and we were able to finish the project days before the lockdown was lifted. We were happy that we were able to achieve this goal, as it was very difficult for others.

Since the lockdown began and my partners and I were not able to step out for business meetings, Zoom came in handy and we were able to accomplish many feats within that period. These included project management, project completion, and project counseling.

Now, we don't have to go out and meet unless it cannot be avoided. With the inception of Zoom, we are able to collaborate anytime, anywhere, any day. We are able to achieve just as much as we would have if we were meeting and sometimes we are able to get a lot more done.

The grid view option is great, as you get to see everyone who is in the video conference at the same time.

I like the feature that you can select a particular member and see them on the full screen.

Video conferencing is great but Zoom has been on a different level. I like that feature that gives the host permission to mute everyone except themselves, and then unmute them anytime they need someone to talk

In order to save bandwidth, the feature of turning off video has been really great. We can switch them to audio-only when the video is not necessary.

I would like to see something like a virtual board or conference room where participants are seated around a virtual table, and pictures of them sitting on the chair or an avatar that the user can choose and control within that virtual world. This would allow the participants to somehow move around, talk to others privately just like you'd meet someone at the office, or talk to colleagues before a conference or board meeting starts.

Being able to edit Google Docs in Zoom would be helpful. For example, co-editing a file with a colleague using Zoom would be nice.

I've started using zoom since the first pandemic was initiated and I've been using it ever since.

The primary use case of this solution is for video calling, web, and group meetings.

The most valuable feature is push notifications. We use it as a user and Zoom has the option to control the entire meeting with the push notifications. One person can control the entire meeting, which is quite handy for an organizational meeting. 

For personal meetings, the screen-sharing and the quality of the video is great.

The interface is easy to understand, and easy to use.

For those who cannot purchase the ID, they have a time limit of 40 minutes. They should consider increasing the time limits for free users.

I am from India, and here we have students who are using Zoom for their college classes or science classes. If they would increase the video times then it would increase their market size. Once they have more time, they can use it more often and could possibly decide to purchase the paid version.

The backgrounds are a bit dull. I would like to see some improvements made to the backgrounds that are available.

We started using the free version of Zoom a year ago, but only just made the official purchase one month ago.

We have been using the Business Zoom in full for the last month.

It's a stable solution. We don't have any issues connecting.

This solution is scalable.

We have 500 employees who are using it. It is being used extensively in our organization right now as everyone is working from remote locations.

In India, the COVID lockdown is increasing every month. The chances are that we will be increasing our account users.

I have not spoken with anyone in the technical support team. We have our own IT department and go directly to them if we have any issues.

Previously we were using Join Me. The interface was poor and we were having many issues during web calls and group meetings. We switched to using Zoom and the experience has been very good.

We have also used Skype, Skype for Business, and some other tools. Zoom is easier.

I have used Hangouts Meet and when you increase users the video quality deteriorates and you will face many issues.

There is a free version available with time limits.

Depending on the company budget, this would be a great solution to use. It's user-friendly and the video quality is very good. The bandwidth it requires is good, and you can continue with your meetings without any issues.

Compared to other products on the market, this is a very good solution. There are very few options available that have a good interface that is easy to use and understand with good video calling.

I would rate this solution a nine out of ten.

I generally use Zoom for meetings when presenting to potential customers. It's a good way of being able to present information. I own the company and I'm a customer of Zoom. 

It's great that I can see people when I'm talking to them, it's really important to have that feature and to connect to clients. I also like the ability to share graphics; the ability to go through a PowerPoint presentation or share other visuals is very important. Beyond that, I know there are lots of other capabilities that we haven't used very much.

There are sometimes too many parallel meetings going on and the system gets overloaded, somebody drops out or we have to start over again. That's something that could be improved. 

I'd like to see 100% reliability in the solution. I also find that the controls are a little awkward, but that's a minor point. It's really the consistency and the reliability that are the big issues.

I've been using this product for a year. 

It's a stable solution most of the time, but I think it's dependent on the number of users at a given time. Too many users and you can have some issues. 

In general, the solution is scalable although there are occasionally issues when meetings are conducted in parallel and we might lose a connection.

I've made one or two calls to customer support and shared emails with them so it's been quite limited. I got a reasonable response, they were pretty decent.  

I think the main thing I would suggest is to get some kind of assurance that there won't be overload problems. I believe one of my clients has some kind of arrangement or package with them and we've never had a problem on any Zoom meeting with this client. 

I find that I can have more meetings and greater effect using Zoom. I've had many live meetings and conference calls over the years. It's difficult to connect with clients on a conference call. Zoom makes meetings as effective as a live meeting or close to it.

I'd rate this solution an eight out of 10. 

I use Zoom for having virtual multi-person meetings.

This video conferencing product is easy to use.

You can present your desktop during meetings.

The security needs to be improved.

The ability to encrypt communications would be nice.

I have been using Zoom for a couple of years.

Zoom is stable for the most part. Like any product, there can be issues with instability, but it is adequate for my needs.

I have not been in contact with technical support.

I have used Google Meetings, GoToMeeting, GoToWebinar, Webex, and ON24. I also use Skype or Skype for Business, although I don't like either one.

These days, I mostly use Zoom. It is what I prefer when I need to have multi-person meetings for longer than 40 minutes. I would also say that it is a lot more stable than Webex and GoToMeeting.

The price is $149 USD yearly.

I would rate this solution a seven out of ten.

We're a small company, around 65 people. Some are external consultants and the rest are employees. We've been using Zoom since well before the pandemic. I'm the RPA operations manager and we're a customer. 

We're a remote organization, so the ability to have video conferencing is very helpful, both internally and externally with our clients. Not everything requires face to face or video conferencing, but it's nice to have that ability and on the current outlook of the world, I think it's going to be the way to go in the future. 

I like Zoom because you can record your sessions. You have the option to be able to select whether or not your audio is through your laptop or through your phone and you have different recording options. You can record with or without sound. We have the option to use the free 40-minute sessions or to pay for anything longer. One of the benefits of the 40 minute free sessions is that anyone can access them and it's great for short meetings. Also, Zoom recently implemented a Microsoft Office add-in, which means you can now schedule Zoom meetings without having to go into the Zoom app.

The one thing I don't like is that they now require you to have a password for every meeting and when I'm just dealing with my staff, where I want to have a conversation but not necessarily a meeting. I know this was implemented due to security concerns, but I don't necessarily like it or need it for everything. That's the only thing I've come across that I didn't really care for, especially in cases where I'm not really using it for a video conference, but for a conference line. 

Our company has been using this solution for about a year. 

The solution is currently handling hundreds of thousands of people across the country and across the world so it's pretty stable.

There isn't really an issue of scalability as we don't maintain it and each individual contractor or employee downloads their own version. When updates comes through, we'll get a patch or  a new version and they'll be required to upload or install it before they can continue using the solution, like with any other product.

I've never used technical support. 

I like Zoom better than WebEx or Skype. We're dealing with people all over the world, so specifically when we're connecting to Columbia or South America, Skype doesn't hold up well, Zooms' clarity seems to be much better. I think the connectivity of Zoom is better. 

The initial setup is very straightforward and simple - download it and you're off to the races.

I would rate this solution a 10 out of 10.
