Zoom Workplace Business Reviews

I receive Zoom meeting invites from others. A few years ago, I set up an account but didn't use it much.

We maintain a hybrid work environment, and Zoom makes collaboration easier. 

What I like most about Zoom is its simplicity and functionality. 

It also works well here in Nigeria, even when internet connectivity isn't great.

The video quality is good. The security features are good.

The main benefit is that it allows us to easily connect and collaborate, even in areas with less reliable internet.

For me, the only thing I'd suggest is to make the pricing more affordable.

I've been using Zoom on and off for maybe three or four years.

It's very stable.

It is scalable as well. We don't actually subscribe to Zoom. We mainly use it to attend meetings but not to set them up.

While everyone in our organization (which is less than ten people) has Zoom installed, we don't use it to host meetings ourselves.

I've been working with virtual meeting platforms like Webex.

I've mostly used Google Meet and Microsoft Teams recently. But I've also used Webex in the past.

I also used Zoho once.

For screen sharing and presentations, I actually prefer Google Meet, followed by Zoom. Microsoft Teams can be a bit more challenging, especially if your internet connection isn't strong.

I mainly installed Zoom because it was very popular.

The installation was straightforward and didn't take long. If you're downloading the app and setting everything up for the first time, it should take about five to ten minutes.

If you have short meetings and don't need many advanced features, like extra storage, you might not have to pay for a license. It really depends on your specific needs.

Overall, I would rate it an eight out of ten. It's a user-friendly product. It's a good choice if you sometimes need to use it where internet connectivity isn't the strongest.

It's a good product, and I would highly recommend it – especially because it works well even with less reliable internet connections.

Most collaboration tools share common features. Recently, Zoom has increased the number of concurrent users for collaborative purposes. Previously, the limit was 50, but now it's 10,000. You can host multiple thousand people with a licensed or free version. This is beneficial because both teams and individuals can use the service. Zoom has aimed to cater to both corporate sectors, where licences are prevalent, and individuals who may be using the free version, such as students, faculty, or small to medium enterprises.

The video quality and stability of Zoom are good, but they depend on the communication network and backbone infrastructure. Sometimes, when we use Zoom and don't have a good backbone facility, there can be issues. Zoom provides different background screen functionalities for privacy protection. These are standard functions worldwide. You can opt for new backgrounds, customise settings, and establish privacy preferences. In terms of collaboration and reviewing, Zoom offers standard features similar to other collaboration tools.

Zoom has frequent updates, occurring every week or twice a week. This poses a significant issue because sometimes when we attempt to initiate a call, the system begins an upgrade process, taking at least 30 seconds and sometimes up to two minutes. This unscheduled upgrade can be inconvenient for users, as they must wait for the update to complete.

When users who don't have the plugin available, they sometimes encounter difficulties using the browser-based system. They don't need to download any additional applications for the purpose of meeting. Zoom should invest more in this area.

Secondly, the primary target customers are the enterprise or business sectors, rather than students. Microsoft is heavily targeting the business sector. However, if these users eventually adopt Zoom for educational purposes, they will need to use the same application.

I have been using Zoom for 3-4 years. We are using this latest version of the solution.

The product is stable.

I rate the solution’s stability an eight out of ten.

The solution’s scalability is high. if you record everything, It's encrypted. It is in the Oracle database, which is a piece of mind for me that my communication, my recording should not be. Security breach should not be there. I can set all the security parameters accordingly.

200+ users are using this solution. We are using two hours a day.

I rate the solution’s scalability a seven out of ten.

We used the Microsoft team because it is built-in hardware and is easy to manage.

The initial setup is easy and takes very little time since It is a simple configuration. Zoom has a backend agreement with Oracle. Oracle is managing end-to-end infrastructure and cloud services of Zoom. Any user can deploy the solution depending on their expertise.
It is managed or maintained by Oracle and Zoom itself but on the client side, updates are a bit annoying.

Overall, I rate the solution an eight out of ten.

We use the solution for our daily meetings.

Some of our people work from home, and some work from the office. The tool supports our hybrid work environment. It works well. We meet using Zoom. It is useful for collaboration within the team. The performance is perfect. The video quality is good compared to other products. The sound quality is also good. We do not face any problems. The screen-sharing capabilities are very good.

We want to use the tool for webinars, but the license is very expensive. The price must be improved.

I have been using the solution for two years.

The stability is perfect. I rate the stability a nine out of ten. The placement of some of the options on the screen can be improved.

I rate the tool’s scalability a nine out of ten. We have approximately 100 users, including managers, engineers, and developers. We use it regularly.

The setup is straightforward. The solution can be installed in a minute. We just have one file for installation. We can install it easily.

The solution helps us conduct remote meetings quickly.

We pay a yearly licensing fee.

I will recommend the product to others. The tool is very useful for daily meetings. It is a very good product. Overall, I rate the product a nine out of ten.

I use the tool when I need to join calls as a participant, but I don't use it regularly in my day-to-day tasks. I used it for a large-scale meeting a year back.

I find Zoom's sharing features, particularly presenting slides, quite useful. While I'm uncertain if it outperforms Teams in this aspect, I appreciate its functionality. Its breakout room feature is good.

The main issue with Zoom is its adoption in the business world compared to platforms like Teams.

I have been working with the product for five years.

I haven't faced any issues with the tool's stability.

Teams is easier to use because it's seamlessly integrated with Office 365. You can start, join, and invite people to calls from Teams. I'm more used to Teams, so that's what I find convenient. I haven't set up meetings with Zoom myself.

I use the tool's free version.

I use Zoom occasionally for personal reasons, especially for the charity work I do as a director. My company is a large enterprise. I rate it a seven out of ten. Teams is simpler to use because of its integration with Office 365. From a company perspective, that's a big advantage. I like Zoom, but I haven't used it extensively. If there's a new release tomorrow, I'd hope for additional features or improvements to improve it. You need to invest in a good headset to use it.

I like Zoom's breakout session feature. During a conference, you can have a breakout session and place people in different groups, which can later converge back into the same room. I also like the solution's webinar feature. The Zoom webinar allows you to create the different settings you want. You could join in between with your microphone automatically off. It has a feature where you raise your hand to ask a question or make comments.

I cannot integrate Zoom with my Cisco teleconference, which prevents people from the teleconference mode from joining Zoom. I would like to see Zoom integrated with other third-party services.

I have been using Zoom since 2019.

Zoom is a very stable solution.

Zoom is a scalable solution. More than 500 users are using the solution in our organization, and we plan to increase the number of users.

Zoom's initial setup is straightforward. You just download and install the app, which takes five minutes.

After downloading and installing the app, you can set up your meeting schedule whenever you want to start the meeting.

With Zoom, you can communicate easily and have your meetings without any hindrance. You can join in from anywhere, and there are no barriers to your meetings. It saves travel time because people travel long distances to join meetings. The solution also saves costs on flights and accommodation so that people can work from their location and join meetings.

We pay a yearly licensing fee for Zoom, which is expensive in our part of the world. It is because of the instability in our currency. We cannot pay for all of the services in our local currency. That's the only big challenge we have. There's always a variation in the cost because every year we pay higher than the previous year for the support.

Most of the meetings we have in our environment are via Zoom. It works well in terms of the number of users who can join. We are using a subscription-based licensed copy. With Zoom, our meetings are easily conducted and managed. There's been an improvement in Zoom's video quality. Zoom's screen-sharing and presentation capabilities are good.

Zoom's security features are effective in protecting our meetings because it has settings that allow you to admit only those you have invited for the meeting. Nobody can barge into your meeting without your permission. I would recommend Zoom to other users.

Overall, I rate the solution a nine out of ten.

We are using Zoom for everyone. Everything is based on Zoom. It also connects our SIP devices. It is a video conferencing platform. We use it for team meetings. We use the solution to have meetings with colleagues from all over the world.

The product quality is very good. Zoom has a good setup globally. We use the screen-sharing feature. It is helpful. The security is good. The solution doesn’t have anything related to data protection. The solution has come up with new AI features.

The tool must enhance the features it provides. It can incorporate more features. Webex has a SIP connection integrated into it. Webex also allows third-party connections.

I have been using the solution for more than three years.

The tool’s stability is very good.

The initial setup is easy. It is plug-and-play. It is simple. The product is deployed on the cloud.

The pricing is reasonable. It costs $15 a year.

Zoom and Webex are good products.

I haven’t faced any issues with the tool. We are familiar with Zoom. I do not have much idea about other products. Overall, I rate the product an eight out of ten.

I use the solution for meetings, leadership coaching, and leadership development. Sometimes, I use it for setting up team meetings and progress meetings for projects.

If we're leading groups, we can set up the tool for different environments. We can use the product for communication, presentation, and integration. The screen-sharing feature is easy to use. It is very helpful. We must be careful about what we are sharing. It also depends on the user of the tool, how they set it up, and the quality of the person using it. The product is easy to use. I’m happy with the solution for general use.

Initially, it takes a little time to figure out how to set up the tool for screen sharing and collaboration. Setting up and understanding the tool takes time. The product must provide more information to protect the users. They must know when they are visible and have a clear view when they are on.

Before the screen sharing starts, the product must confirm with the user whether they want to share their data, documents, or the screen. There must be more reminders. It might be annoying for some people, but it would help protect the privacy of the users.

I have been using the solution for some years.

It was not difficult to initially set up the tool.

Microsoft Teams is a more professional environment. It is useful for normal meetings and quick communications on a day-to-day basis in a professional environment. It is good. It is a little bit more complex and has a little bit more options than Zoom. It needs more qualified people who are used to working in a complex environment.

I work internationally. I have international contacts in Germany, Switzerland, and the Netherlands. It's a normal tool I use. I use it two times a month. If we have good communication around it and good preparation, the tool is quite good to use. I have technical experience. I have worked in many environments, so I do not hesitate to try and figure it out. Overall, I rate the product a seven out of ten.

I use the paid version of the solution in my company to attend meetings. In my company, we have joint meetings in different offices, so we join combinedly through Zoom. My organization has multiple hospitals where managers work, and if we need some information or guidelines, we give them the link to the meeting, and they join it. The meetings on Zoom can go on for more than an hour without any breaks in the video. There is a time frame for the unpaid version. For the paid version, there is no time frame attached to the meetings, making it easy to use.

Everything related to the product is perfect, in my opinion. The video quality and sound quality offered by the product are directly attached to the internet connection that a user has at their place. If you have a good internet connection, the video and sound quality offered by Zoom are great.

Considering the main function of Zoom, it should make the video functioning part a little bit more friendly.

I have been using Zoom for four to five years.

Stability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten.

Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a nine to ten out of ten.

More than 80 people in my company use the product.

The product is not regularly used for meetings, but it is useful to hold multiple meetings. The product offers an option to schedule a meeting. My company schedules meetings with the help of the product, and if anybody has to attend a meeting that has been scheduled, that person will be notified.

I have used Google Meet, but its video and sound quality were very different from what Zoom offers.

The product's initial setup phase was easy.

During the product's deployment phase, I just download and install it, after which I follow the process to login and use it.

The solution is deployed on an on-premises model.

The solution can be deployed in a couple of minutes. You just have to download and install it.

I can take care of the product's deployment myself.

The value from the use of the product reflects areas like webinars, reviews, meetings, discussions and joint meetings.

The tool's paid version is not that expensive. You need to pay 150 USD per year.

The licensing part of the product is not expensive. I rate the product price as nine out of ten. There is no need to pay any additional costs apart from the normal charges attached to the product.

The product's screen-sharing capabilities are perfect.

I feel like the product is quite user-friendly and offers multiple versions, and I feel the paid version is perfect. The multiple features in the product are very helpful for businesses.

The product's security features are good.

I rate the tool an eight out of ten.
