We use Zoom in our organization for internal meetings.
Accounting Manager at a legal firm with 51-200 employees
Beneficial functionality and convenient to use
Pros and Cons
- "Zoom is very convenient to use and the basic functions work well for us."
- "Zoom could improve by allowing multiple users to share their screens at the same time."
What is our primary use case?
What is most valuable?
Zoom is very convenient to use and the basic functions work well for us.
What needs improvement?
Zoom could improve by allowing multiple users to share their screens at the same time.
We have been satisfied with the basic functions, but if we want something more robust to emulate the office environment that you can see different screens, raise your hands, and have pop-up questions everyone can see. Zoom could improve on these features to make it more like a chat room.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using Zoom for approximately six months.

Portfolio Manager at a computer software company with 201-500 employees
Good user interface and has the ability to share screens but it may interfere with device settings
Pros and Cons
- "I don't have any issue with the pricing."
- "The user interface is fine, I don't have any issue with the pricing, the technical support is okay, and it does offer collaboration where you can share your screen."
- "I don't know whose product is at fault, however, if you've ever had to go from Zoom to Teams to WebEx, it really messes around with your device settings."
What is our primary use case?
I primarily use the solution for client meetings. In most cases, our customers are government customers. They're using the government version of Zoom.
What is most valuable?
The user interface is fine.
I don't have any issue with the pricing.
The technical support is okay.
It does offer collaboration. You can share your screen.
What needs improvement?
I'm not sure how good the solution is for file sharing. However, that might not be the type of functionality you need for this type of project.
I don't know whose product is at fault, however, if you've ever had to go from Zoom to Teams to WebEx, it really messes around with your device settings. In the case of my microphone, I may have a USB microphone, and all of a sudden I'm using the microphone in my camera. Or my speakers, if they're plugged into my laptop, now all of a sudden those don't work. That's something that's kind of annoying. However, that might not be the fault of Zoom.
How are customer service and support?
I haven't had any issues with technical support.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
The company mainly uses Microsoft Teams. I only use Zoom for when a customer wants to have a meeting and they need to use Zoom.
We used to use WebEx, however, we don't really use it anymore.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
The pricing of the solution is fine.
What other advice do I have?
I'm just an end-user.
I'd probably rate the solution at a seven and that is only due to the fact that we're a Microsoft shop, and we have a lot of Office 365. Our use of Teams is very integrated into the files that we create and store and access. Therefore, Zoom is not the most used product in our company.

Senior Client Executive at a computer software company with 10,001+ employees
Easy to use, simple document sharing, but more channel building features needed
Pros and Cons
- "The solution is easy to use and loads up documents for sharing."
- "Zoom has benefited our company because it is easy to set up and for clients to use."
- "There was a situation not long ago when there were some security fears. Some users had somebody else take control of their calls. They might have addressed these issues now, but the security needs to continue to be upgraded."
What is our primary use case?
We use Zoom internally and externally in our organization for communicating with associates or with clients.
How has it helped my organization?
Zoom has benefited our company because it is easy to set up and for clients to use. When we are doing presentations or discussions at various levels of sales it is a good tool.
What is most valuable?
The solution is easy to use and loads up documents for sharing.
What needs improvement?
There was a situation not long ago when there were some security fears. Some users had somebody else take control of their calls. They might have addressed these issues now, but the security needs to continue to be upgraded.
There are certain ways you can build channels for clients and opportunities in Teams that would be a benefit to add to Zoom. I have been using Teams more than Zoom because it has a lot more capabilities for sales and communication, building, and working with the team.

The stability is good. I do not remember Zoom having any glitches, or time-out issues, it always seemed consistent.

President at SystemLink
Popular, with a web-based interface, but does not support file sharing
Pros and Cons
- "It's popular. Many people use it not only personally, but also in businesses."
- "It would be useful to be able to share files with my colleagues."
- "There are some things that we require that Zoom does not have."
What is our primary use case?
We use Zoom to communicate with colleagues and hold meetings with colleagues and clients.
What is most valuable?
It's popular. Many people use it not only personally, but also in businesses.
What needs improvement?
When you have a large group of people on Zoom, the focus becomes hazy. When there are larger groups, people can become easily distracted.
When you have 10 people and three or four of them are primarily engaged in the conversation, the rest of the group has ventured or wandered off. I am not sure if it's a complaint. It's simply a fact.
I would like to see better video quality, especially when it's being used by a large group of people using it.
I'm not aware of any file transfer capabilities with Zoom. It would be useful to be able to share files with my colleagues.
There are some things that we require that Zoom does not have.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using Zoom for approximately one year.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
Our company is small.
When we use Zoom, we may have one client and possibly another group of participants who are not affiliated with the organization.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
Because we are in the software development and implementation business, we use other tools in addition to Zoom.
While we are on a call, we use Go to Assist, and Fast Support to track our time and transfer files.
How was the initial setup?
We access it through the Zoom web application. We don't install it or publish it.
What other advice do I have?
I would rate Zoom a seven out of ten.
Which deployment model are you using for this solution?
Public Cloud
If public cloud, private cloud, or hybrid cloud, which cloud provider do you use?

VMware Senior Client Solutions Architect at a computer software company with 10,001+ employees
High-level video quality, plenty of features, and highly scalable
Pros and Cons
- "There are many valuables features of Zoom: the visibility is very good, the ability to see everyone that is talking and the indication spotlight of who the primary speaker is are helpful, the solution is interactive with participants able to raise their hand, comment, and give gestures such as thumbs up or down, there is the option to record, the quality of the video is great, the quality of the desktop sharing is clear, there is easy scheduling, and overall ease of use."
- "The solution can improve by having the option to be able to lock the primary speaker on high definition the entire time. Additionally, it would be a benefit to have easy Zoom room-like features for individuals using lightboards. There should be quick invitations and integration with Slack and Outlook."
- "The solution can improve by having the option to be able to lock the primary speaker on high definition the entire time."
What is our primary use case?
I use Zoom as a communication solution. I am an active user of the solution and I use it for approximately six hours a day.
What is most valuable?
There are many valuables features of Zoom. The visibility is very good. The ability to see everyone that is talking and the indication spotlight of who the primary speaker is helpful. The solution is interactive, the participants are able to raise their hand, comment, give gestures, such as thumbs up or down. There is the option to record, the quality of the video is great, the quality of the desktop sharing is clear, easy scheduling, and overall ease of use.
What needs improvement?
The solution can improve by having the option to be able to lock the primary speaker on high definition the entire time. Additionally, it would be a benefit to have easy Zoom room-like features for individuals using lightboards. There should be quick invitations and integration with Slack and Outlook.
In an upcoming release, I would like to have a push-button screen capture of what I am doing. I do not want to record the whole process, but I want a push-button screen capture. For example, if we are doing a PowerPoint or lightboard and I have edited it and I want to capture the change, having a push-button that records it to my laptop would be a large advantage.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using Zoom for approximately two years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
The stability is good but I noticed quality issues for people who are using cell phones. There should be a note somewhere that says landline preferred. It is best to use WiFi rather than mobile data. This is more of a user issue than it is a platform issue.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
The solution is highly scalable. We have zoom sessions that include tens of thousands of people.
How are customer service and support?
I have never had an issue with Zoom to have the need to contact the support.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
I have used WebEx and Teams previously. The video quality is poor, I cannot do screenshots easily or see what my lightboards are doing. When I am looking at myself on Teams, Teams flips my video around and there is no option for me to do a screen capture on Teams. If I am on a Teams call, I open up Zoom, I flip to Zoom video, I do my screen capture there and then I flip back to Teams for the call. I dislike Teams.
What other advice do I have?
The additions I have suggested are to make an already amazing platform even better. My utilization of Zoom is better than everybody else in my organization as far as how many features are being used. I do training, teachings, and client-facing workshops and I have a lightboard integrated with Zoom, I use it extensively.
I rate Zoom a ten out of ten.

Account Management Leader at AlgoSec
Performs better than competitors and has a user-friendly interface
Pros and Cons
- "Compared to Teams, Zoom's performance and user interface are better. This is especially the case when you're doing any kind of online presentation, PowerPoint, or team demo. I think Zoom is much more user friendly."
- "If Zoom could be more secure, that would be better. Security is always a highly sensitive matter for everyone today."
What is our primary use case?
There are upwards of 200 people in my organization using Zoom for video conferencing.
What is most valuable?
Compared to Teams, Zoom's performance and user interface are better. This is especially the case when you're doing any kind of online presentation, PowerPoint, or team demo. I think Zoom is much more user friendly. I don't know the level of security of Zoom, but it underwent a CSO test and was approved, so the level of security is good enough for us to use it. Since we are dealing with cyber security, I think it should be well secured.
What needs improvement?
If Zoom could be more secure, that would be better. Security is always a highly sensitive matter for everyone today.
For how long have I used the solution?
I've been using Zoom for five or six years.
How are customer service and support?
We've had no issues with Zoom that required us to contact technical support.
How was the initial setup?
Installing Zoom is very straightforward. It only took a couple of minutes.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
I don't know what the price for Zoom is. It's a company license, so I don't know anything about pricing.
What other advice do I have?
I rate Zoom nine out of 10. I would recommend it to others.
