908,800 professionals have used our research since 2012.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
You can only really have 100 users at a time. That said, for us, it's not an issue. It can scale to meet our needs. We wouldn't go beyond that threshold.
In our company, everyone uses the product, including management.
I'm not sure if there are plans to increase usage. That would be based on a decision made by corporate.
How are customer service and support?
I've never directly dealt with Zoom technical support. We have our own internal IT team. If we run into problems with anything, we turn to them. Therefore, I can't speak to how helpful Zoom is if customers have issues.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
We have also used Cisco WebEx. We used it about three years ago. My understanding is that WebEx is a bit more secure than Zoom.
How was the initial setup?
The product does not require any installation. It automatically just plugs in, actually. You click on a link and you can start using it.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
I'm not sure about the licensing. Our technical team handles these aspects. I can't speak to the exact costs as I don't buy it myself.
What other advice do I have?
I'm just an end-user.
We are using the latest version of the solution. It's cloud-based and therefore always updated.
I'd recommend the solution to others.
I would rate the solution at a nine out of ten.
Which deployment model are you using for this solution?
Public Cloud
Disclosure: My company does not have a business relationship with this vendor other than being a customer.

Sends meeting invites, collects statistic information, and its easy to set up
Pros and Cons
- "Zoom has great functionality for virtual meetings. It's best in class."
- "Zoom has great functionality for virtual meetings; it's best in class, allows you to create invitation letters for people to join meetings, and collects statistics that are helpful for showing you details such as who has joined the meeting."
- "In general, the price could be a little cheaper."
What is our primary use case?
I primarily use Zoom for virtual meetings.
What is most valuable?
Zoom has great functionality for virtual meetings. It's best in class.
You can create invitation letters for people to join meetings.
It collects statistics that are helpful for showing you details such as who has joined the meeting.
What needs improvement?
In general, the price could be a little cheaper.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been working with Zoom for a couple of years.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
We have fewer than 100 users. For us, scalability is great, and we may increase our usage in the future.
How are customer service and support?
I have no experience with support because I have never needed any.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
From time to time, we use Microsoft Teams. However, Zoom is the product that I prefer.
How was the initial setup?
The initial setup is quite easy. I have set it up at least ten times in the past six months.
What about the implementation team?
My specialty is hardware but I am able to do the Zoom installation personally.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
There is a licensing fee and although the price is fair, it can be a little cheaper.
What other advice do I have?
This is a product that I like a lot and I'm happy with using it. I would recommend it to others.
I would rate this solution a ten out of ten.
Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

Senior Specialist, e-Transformation Services at a tech services company with 201-500 employees
Lightweight, easy to use, and supports sending emojis in chat
Pros and Cons
- "Zoom is easy to use and does not consume very much in terms of resources."
- "Zoom should continue to add new features to the product."
What is our primary use case?
We use Zoom for video conferencing and meetings.
What is most valuable?
Zoom is easy to use and does not consume very much in terms of resources.
What needs improvement?
Zoom should continue to add new features to the product. When a new feature is added, I appreciate it.
For how long have I used the solution?
We have been using Zoom for the past year.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
Zoom is a stable solution, unlike Webex, which is not.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
At the company we're working with, which is a major financial institution, there are thousands of people using Zoom.
I attend Zoom meetings every morning.
How are customer service and support?
I have not been in contact with Zoom technical support.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
I have experience with both Zoom and Webex, and I prefer Zoom.
Webex is what we were using prior to Zoom and although Webex is still used in the organization, my team relies on Zoom. For internal communication, Webex is our primary tool for virtual meetings. Since other companies more often use Zoom, that's what we use to speak with people outside of the company.
Resource-wise, Webex is much heavier and consumes more resources than Zoom. With Webex, my computer sounds loud because the CPU utilization is higher, it gets hotter, and the fan is louder.
Webex is not as stable as Zoom.
How was the initial setup?
The initial setup is simple. You only need to press the Next button on several screens, until it completes.
It began with a meeting request that I had received. When I tried to open my first meeting request, the system asked me if I wanted to install Zoom. I clicked Yes, and then followed the instructions and it was installed.
What about the implementation team?
I installed it myself when I received a meeting request.
What other advice do I have?
I like it when Zoom adds new features. For example, one year ago, we were not able to send emojis. I could not imagine sending an emoji like a heart or a smile. Now, the feature is available and I use it. When new features are introduced, I consider it to be a job well done by the vendor.
I would rate this solution a ten out of ten.
Which deployment model are you using for this solution?
Public Cloud
Disclosure: My company does not have a business relationship with this vendor other than being a customer.

- "Zoom did everything that we needed it to do."
- "In summary, this is a good video conferencing solution and although I don't use it much anymore, it worked and did everything that we needed it to."
- "It would be helpful if Zoom could integrate with our medical systems."
- "The pricing is too high. The cost of the license could be cheaper."
What is our primary use case?
We use Zoom for video conferencing.
I don't personally use it much anymore because the company, in general, prefers Microsoft Teams. However, we have a behavior and health group that still uses it.
What is most valuable?
Zoom did everything that we needed it to do.
What needs improvement?
It would be helpful if Zoom could integrate with our medical systems.

The users never call IT support for any help with it.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
For day-to-day use, the company generally relies on Microsoft Teams.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
The pricing is too high. The cost of the license could be cheaper.
What other advice do I have?
My advice for anybody who is considering Zoom is the try Microsoft Teams first. If ultimately they need to buy Zoom, however, it's a good product.
In summary, this is a good video conferencing solution and although I don't use it much anymore, it worked and did everything that we needed it to.
I would rate this solution a nine out of ten.

Easy to use and has nice features for virtual meeting rooms
Pros and Cons
- "This is the easiest product to use for videoconferencing."
- "Overall, I really like Zoom and it has everything that we need."
- "I like to see the whole screen and sometimes, it is difficult to hide the speaker's picture or my own picture from the forefront of the Zoom screen."

At the beginning of the pandemic, we started using Zoom for work. After some time, we switched to Microsoft Teams for that purpose. We talk to our providers using Zoom but it is not common.
This is deployed in a Linux environment.
What is most valuable?
I like the virtual meeting rooms in this product. They are very good and have very nice features.
This is the easiest product to use for videoconferencing.
What needs improvement?
The interface could use some improvement. I like to see the whole screen and sometimes, it is difficult to hide the speaker's picture or my own picture from the forefront of the Zoom screen.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using Zoom for approximately two years, since 2019.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
Zoom is a very stable product.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
I did not use another similar product prior to Zoom.
I also use Microsoft Teams. We changed to Teams for work but I still use Zoom here and there.
How was the initial setup?
Downloading and installing Zoom was very easy to do. It did not take a long time.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
I use the free version of Zoom that is available for download.
What other advice do I have?
Overall, I really like Zoom and it has everything that we need. The only complaint I have is about the interface.
I would rate this solution a nine out of ten.

Much better and more reliable than Microsoft Teams and WebEx, but has occasional problems with latency, audio or visual quality
Pros and Cons
- "The solution is much better and more reliable than Microsoft Teams or Webex."
- "There are occasional latency, sound and audio quality difficulties."
What is our primary use case?
I use my Mac to conduct Zoom meetings with those who are interested, which runs on my browser.
What needs improvement?
I have come across the run of the mill issues which someone would expect to find with these communication solutions. There are occasional latency, sound and audio quality difficulties.
The solution is good, but it's not perfect.
A big feature I wish to see would involve the ability to attach documents while conducting a session.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using Zoom for around a year-and-a-half.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
The solution is much better and more reliable than Microsoft Teams or Webex.
I am not the one in charge of the decisions. People, such as recruiters and hiring managers, are the ones who make the decision to conduct a one-on-one meeting. Nowadays, these things are done remotely and the people, at turns, may specify Zoom, Microsoft Teams or Webex. This can vary. I deal with all of these solutions.
What other advice do I have?
I believe that Zoom is deployed in the cloud.
We provide software as a service.
I rate Zoom around a seven out of ten.

Senior Vice President at a financial services firm with 201-500 employees
It doesn't require any IT skills or use up a lot of bandwidth
Pros and Cons
- "Zoom is incredibly easy to install. You can download it immediately on a mobile phone or go to the website. You don't need a lot of IT skills to get it running."
- "Compared to Skype and Teams, Zoom is missing one feature, and that's the ability to call people. In Teams, I can call anyone I want. It's like a telephone. I can do the same on Skype, but I have to send a link in Zoom."
What is our primary use case?
I've used Zoom personally and professionally. We use it for virtual meetings and presentations for management or customers. We use Zoom or Teams for anything that requires a group discussion.
What is most valuable?
Zoom is nice. It does not consume a lot of internet bandwidth.
What needs improvement?
I want Zoom to be integrated with virtual or intelligence boards. This would be useful when you are giving lectures.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?
Zoom is stable.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

Which other solutions did I evaluate?
Compared to Skype and Teams, Zoom is missing one feature, and that's the ability to call people. In Teams, I can call anyone I want. It's like a telephone. I can do the same on Skype, but I have to send a link in Zoom. They click on the link and contact me. If I'm driving, I can't just click on one of my team in Zoom.
What other advice do I have?
I rate Zoom nine out of 10. It's great software. I would recommend it.
