I use the solution for video calls. I use it for everything including meetings, interviews, webinars, et cetera. I use it a lot.
Virtual network solution Engineer at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
Scalable, stable, and great for webinars
Pros and Cons
- "The stability has been good overall."
- "I'd like integration with Outlook to set my meetings. As it is, right now, I have to go to the Zoom app to do that, and after that, export it to Outlook."
What is our primary use case?
How has it helped my organization?
I use it in my company and since the pandemic, I use it every day. I entered into the company while the pandemic was just starting. I don't do any face-to-face with my coworkers. Everything is in Zoom, outside of the office setting.
What is most valuable?
Overall, I like it very much.
I like the way that you can do webinars on it. That is the most valuable for me.
The solution is stable.
The scalability is good.
What needs improvement?
There are some features that are lacking. For example, sometimes, I want to share some pictures in the chat, and, in Zoom, you can't do that. That's the one item I'm missing. You can do that in Microsoft Teams with no problem. It's something I'd like to do in Zoom.
I'd like integration with Outlook to set my meetings. As it is, right now, I have to go to the Zoom app to do that, and after that, export it to Outlook. It should be simpler. Maybe there is a secret I am missing.
I'm not sure if it is possible in Zoom, however, in Cisco Webex, you can do the online translation of what the people are saying. That could be a good solution for people that actually don't speak English. For example, I speak Spanish. English is my second language. It would be helpful to have an in-app translation.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?
The stability has been good overall. There are no bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze. It's reliable.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
The product scales well. I've been on webinars with 500 people and have never had a problem with it. You can do rather sizable meetings.
Everyone in my organization is using Zoom at this time. We have about 22,00 people that work within the organization.
How are customer service and support?
I'm from the IT world and can do my own troubleshooting. I've never been in touch with technical support. I cannot speak to how helpful they would be, or how responsive they are.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
In my organization, we can use Zoom or Microsoft Teams. A lot of people are changing to Teams due to the lack of integration in Zoom with Outlook. That said, almost everyone uses Zoom still. It was the first solution that this company had, therefore, likely the newest people are using Teams and the older ones are using and still using Zoom.
I used to use Cisco WebEx as well.
How was the initial setup?
When I started using the solution I thought that it was a little bit hard to do as I was used to using Cisco Webex. The change was a little bit hard, however, it only took me a week to do all the things that I can actually do in Webex. Therefore, it's not too hard.
I'm not sure if the solution requires any maintenance, however, we have a local IT team that would be able to handle any responsibilities if that's the case.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
We have a company account. I'm not sure what the overall costs are to the company.
What other advice do I have?
I'm a customer and an end-user.
I'm using the latest version of the product.
I use it on mobile and on my laptop.
I'd advise potential new users to compare the features of all the solutions that are actually in the market to see which would be the best fit for the company's purposes. It's a good idea, if it's possible, to run a POC to try and test all the features first.
I'd rate the solution at a nine out of ten. It's a great solution, however, I'd really like to be able to share images via chat in Zoom.

MCT with 10,001+ employees
Easy to use with an intuitive interface and good scalability
Pros and Cons
- "The interface is very intuitive. It's very easy to use."
- "In the free version, you are restricted to just 40-minute meetings, however, it is free, and therefore you can't ask for too much. It's still okay."
What is our primary use case?
We primarily use the solution to conferencing for meetings. We simply use it for video conferences.
What is most valuable?
I really like its ability to handle large meetings. Zoom has is the capability to support many individuals in one meeting at a time. With Teams, we are limited to 250 users and Zoom allows us to add more people than that to the meeting.
The interface is very intuitive. It's very easy to use.
It's a great tool. The product has great sound and video quality.
The installation process is very simple.
What needs improvement?
I don't use the solution very often. Therefore, I can't speak to dealing with any missing features.
In the free version, you are restricted to just 40-minute meetings, however, it is free, and therefore you can't ask for too much. It's still okay.
It would be nice if they could add collaboration tools. With Microsoft Teams, for example, you can work directly on a document when you are on a call. It would be nice if you could do something similar on Zoom.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
The solution is very stable. There are no bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze. It's reliable and the quality is good.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
The solution can scale in the sense that you can add many people to one call. It's better than, for example, Microsoft Teams.
How are customer service and support?
I've never dealt with technical support. I haven't had any reason to contact that. Therefore, I cannot speak to how helpful or responsive they would be.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
Our office use is using Microsoft Teams.
Zoom works better for when you need many people in one meeting.
The only reason we use Teams instead of Zoom is we have Microsoft in our business and we have to use it.
How was the initial setup?
The initial setup is very simple and straightforward. It's not overly complex or difficult. To deploy the solution takes one or two minutes. The package is very small. The software download is 10 or 20 minutes or something like that. It is a very short time.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
We don't pay for licenses. When our clients are using Zoom, we must use the free version.
I'm not sure how much the paid version costs.
What other advice do I have?
We are just a Zoom customer and end-user.
Last week, I updated the solution, and therefore am on the latest version of the product. However, I don't know the exact version number I am now on.
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. It's a great tool. I've had a great experience with it overall.
I would rate it at a nine out of ten.

Pros and Cons

Easy to set up and simple to use with a great end-user experience
Pros and Cons
- "The product is quite secure and you can use it remotely. I've never heard of there being any security issues."
- "The product could use some more automation."
What is our primary use case?
We primarily use the solution for virtual meetings.
What is most valuable?
The solution is simple to use. Anyone can use it. The product offers a free version as well as an enterprise version.
During the lockdown pandemic situation, every other person was using Zoom. Even most of the schools and education customers, have been using Zoom only, and they are using the free version. Some are using the enterprise version as well. Even students find it user-friendly. There are not many things to configure.
The solution is stable.
The scalability is very good.
My end-user experience has been very positive.
The product is quite secure and you can use it remotely. I've never heard of there being any security issues.
The installation is very straightforward.
What needs improvement?
I haven't looked into the potential to integrate anything into this product. I'm not sure if that's possible.
The product could use some more automation. We'd like it if there was a particular API that could be connected with other applications so that I can create a ticket and have a Zoom meeting sent and automatically start.
For how long have I used the solution?
We've been using the solution for about a year or so.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
We have found the product to be stable. there are no bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze. It's reliable and the performance is good.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
The scalability potential is excellent. If a company needs to expand it, it can.
We currently have 20 users on the solution, however, we have a client that has well over 100 users. Just the technical team uses it. There are engineers and managers that use it.
How are customer service and support?
I've never directly dealt with technical support. I can't speak to how helpful or responsive they might be.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
We've also used Cisco Webex and Skype for Business. We use Zoom and Skype for meetings. WebEx we haven't used in a while.
If you go for Webex or something like that, it has its own infrastructure at times and other things are there. Plus, the licensing is heavy. For Zoom, it is not like that. It is pretty simple and handy. In Cisco, there are many options available, however, you have to configure some of the settings and you need to know the licensing structure at the time of installation. It's more complex.
How was the initial setup?
We found the implementation process to be very simple. It's not overly complex. The first-time installation took me one or two days to complete with the fine-tuning and everything that was involved.
What about the implementation team?
We're able to handle implementation ourselves. We didn't need any assistance with any outside help like consultants or integrators.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
The solution requires a subscription-based license. You can also use the free version of the solution, which doesn't cost anything. However, it doesn't have all of the features.
The pricing is reasonable, especially if you compare it to other solutions on the market.
What other advice do I have?
We're a customer and an end-user of Zoom.
As it's a cloud-based solution, we are using always the latest version.
I'd rate the solution at a nine out of ten.
I'd recommend it to other users.
Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

I rate Zoom as a six to seven out of ten.
