Zoom Workplace Business Reviews

We use Zoom for virtual meetings. We have 250 people in our company using Zoom.

This is a cloud solution.

The video stream is very cool, and it's an efficient solution.

It could be more user friendly, like having permission to share documents quickly with other users.

It's a heavy application that requires a lot of bandwidth. I would like to see Zoom incorporate those features where you can share documents and form teams while still maintaining efficiency.

We have been using this solution since 2019.

The solution is stable.

It's scalable.

Before using Zoom, we used Cisco Webex. Compared to Microsoft Teams, I see Teams as being very heavy. I see it as a solution that was developed in a rush. It's just too heavy if you don't have the bandwidth. It's not as efficient as Zoom.

Zoom gives you the experience of seeing the other person who you are conversing with, even though the person is remote.

Installation is very easy.

We did the installation ourselves.

I would rate this solution 9 out of 10. 

I recommend this solution. It's very comfortable and easy to use.

We primarily use the solution for digital meetings. 

We usually record the calls, the meetings. It's great for that. The recorded file is very quickly delivered to us.

It's a quick product. It's fast.

It meets my needs. It's good, in general.

The initial setup is easy.

I can't speak to any missing features. I just do basic calls and haven't had issues.

We've used the solution for a while at this point. We've used it since around the start of the pandemic, or thereabouts.

We have found the solution to be stable. There are no bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze. It's reliable. 

When it comes to having meetings or webinars, it's been scalable. It seems to expand to our needs. We've never had any issues. 

I've never had a problem with any of the technology. Therefore, I haven't had a need to contact technical support. I wouldn't be able to rate their services, having never contacted them.

A few times when I have had calls with WebEx. It's not my primary tool. My primary tool is Zoom.

Previously, we had other tools like GoToMeeting.Since the start of the pandemic, we have been using Zoom.

We currently also use Meet alongside Zoom.

The initial setup of the solution is very easy, very straightforward. It's not very complex or difficult. 

I'm just a customer and end-user.

We tend to use the latest version of the solution.

I would recommend the solution. I'd advise users to try it out. It's very good.

I would rate the solution at a nine out of ten.

I am using Zoom for virtual meetings. In my company we use Zoom and when we work from home. The physical meeting rooms are not used as much anymore. Additionally, we use Zoom for interviews for candidates.

I have found Zoom to have all the functions that I need. The solution is easy to use.

Sometimes can get confused about which password setting or parameter is required to be set to use it. For example, if I want to issue a Zoom meeting to my team members or perhaps sometimes I want them to issue a Zoom directly when I receive the Zoom accounts from our IT department, I don't know how to enable or disable these features in the Zoom. I think it's a personal issue I have.

I have used Zoom within the last 12 months.

Zoom has been scalable we have not had any issues.

We have approximately 20 Zoom accounts that can be used for employees to use. Our company is worldwide and we have approximately 8,000 employees and there is a potential for everyone to use Zoom.

In 2021 the frequency of use of Zoom was every week. However, in 2022, because we are quite slow in January, it has been deduced.

I have used Microsoft Teams previously.

I prefer to use Zoom because it was the first tool I used. When I compared Zoom to Webex or the GoToMeeting, I find Zoom is easier to book meetings, log in to, and start the meeting.

The implementation can be difficult.

We have our IT department that does the implementation of the solution.

I rate Zoom an eight out of ten.

We use Zoom for online meetings, office setup, and video conferencing.

We also set up Zoom as a virtual office. We have different people who work from home. People log in at 9:30 in the morning, and they're online until 6:15 in the evening.

I wanted to set up a virtual office and work-from-home scenarios, and this is where I found Zoom to be good. It helps me and the company do remote work by setting up a virtual office, with all of us present for the entire working hours.

I'm not sure if GoTo Meeting, Cisco Webex, and other solutions have the virtual office setup option. They could be good for webinars, but I'm not sure how good they are in really setting up a virtual office, or if that option's even available.

What could be better or what could be improved in Zoom is allowing us to log in and connect to people through Zoom phone. In some countries, they allow it, but here in India, they don't. There are a number of times people are outside, and it would have been good if I can connect with them using Zoom Phone.

I've been using Zoom for almost a year.

Zoom is stable solution.

Zoom is scalable. I don't see any challenge on scalability from this solution.

I've reached out to the Zoom technical support team, particularly via chat. I've received good response from them, so whenever I need inputs from them, I just need to contact them via chat.

I was using Microsoft Teams, but I could not set up the rooms the way I wanted, so I decided to move to Zoom from Microsoft Teams.

Zoom installation is straightforward.

I implemented this myself, so in-house.

I pay yearly for the Zoom license.

I evaluated Microsoft Teams, Cisco Webex, Skype for Business, GoTo Webinar, GoTo Meeting, and Zoho Meeting.

Zoom is a cloud-based solution. We're using the latest edition of this solution.

We have 10 users of this platform in our company, but we're not planning to increase the number of users. It's enough.

I do the deployment and maintenance of this solution myself. I don't need a technical team to do it.

I can recommend Zoom to other people who may want to start using it.

I'm giving Zoom a rating of nine out of ten.

Zoom's breakout rooms are an interesting feature that is quite useful for conducting exercises during training. I don't think Teams has this. I also like the recording capabilities, but that depends on the type of privileges that the user has. Not everybody in the organization has the ability to record. 

We sometimes have difficulties connecting, but I never know if it's an issue with Zoom or the network. I would say it's Zoom because we have been working quite a lot from home. However, I would generally say I have not experienced that many issues with Zoom. I'm satisfied.

We've been using Zoom within the company for the past two years or so.

Our organization has around a thousand people, and Zoom is the standard tool we have been using.

I rate Zoom seven out of 10. 

We use Zoom in my office for virtual meetings.

We use it to attend meetings while at the office, from home, from the car, or from the hotel. It is a good solution for online meetings and in general, virtual communications.

It has a feature that allows you to store the recording of a meeting, which is good.

Zoom meetings can only have 1,000 attendees. For more than 1,000, you must buy the Zoom Webinar product.

I have been using Zoom for approximately one year.

This is a scalable product, although a Zoom meeting can only have 1,000 attendees. We have approximately 400 people that use it.

We have to evaluate it further before deciding whether we will increase our usage.

I have been in contact with technical support and it is good. They are very friendly.

We used another video conferencing solution for approximately two months.

Zoom is very easy to set up. You simply download it and use it.

If you have any confusion, you can get information about setting it up from YouTube or Google. It's very easy.

I deployed it myself. No technical team is needed for deployment.

We pay a yearly licensing fee.

Overall, this is a good product and I recommend it.

I would rate this solution a ten out of ten.

I primarily use Zoom for conferencing. 

I don't have a problem with the pricing. 

I'm not a really technologically sophisticated user. I just use it. From my point of view, if I can use it, it's likely very straightforward. 

It's very helpful for communicating with others.

It's hard for me to find where the button is in order to start a call. The setup could be a bit simpler. That's it. Everything else is pretty simple.

I'd like for there to be more integrations possible in the future.

If there was an easy way to share files, that would be ideal.

They could improve their permission settings a little bit.

I've used the solution for one year. It hasn't been that long. 

The initial setup is a bit difficult in that I always have trouble finding the button to initiate the process.

The pricing is decent and I don't consider it to be overly expensive. 

I'd rate the solution at an eight out of ten. It's very useful for conferencing and works well, however, there's always room for improvement.

I'm just a customer and an end-user.

I primarily use Zoom for virtual meetings. Some of the meetings are only with two people, meeting one-on-one for teaching.

The screen sharing capability is useful for teaching.

Zoom is not a good product for webinars. In a webinar, you have a presenter and maybe a co-presenter, with a lot of people listening, perhaps sending questions. Zoom is more for real meetings where everyone has to contribute something, and more than one person is sharing their screen.

Setting up the single sign-on took a little bit more time. It's a really nice feature to have because people can't remember passwords, so they tend to be too simple.

I have been working with Zoom for the past year and a half.

This is a very stable platform.

Zoom is a scalable product. For the client that I am administering Zoom for, we have a few hundred users and everyone in the organization can make a Zoom account.

I have not been in contact with technical support from Zoom.

In addition to Zoom, I am currently using Microsoft Teams. I have used Webex in the past but I don't really like it. I have never personally hosted a meeting using Webex, but I have been an attendee. My impression is that Webex is more suitable for webinars.

The image and sound quality are better on Zoom than on Microsoft Teams.

These are different products for different environments and different occasions.

Zoom is easy to install and set up. It takes maybe five minutes to complete.

There is some basic functionality that's free but if you want to host longer meetings and have more participants, then there is a licensing fee. In fact, the costs of this could be cheaper.

The license for Zoom is something that people will be willing to pay as long as it remains superior to products like Microsoft Teams, in terms of audio and visual quality.

My brother is a big fan of Linux, and I got him to use a Zoom version that was built for Linux. 

One thing to keep in mind is that Zoom costs money and if somebody already has a Microsoft Teams account, the only reason for them to use Zoom is the improved quality of service. As long as the quality difference is big enough, we will continue to use Zoom. Microsoft tends to get better over time and if Microsoft Teams becomes good enough, it will be difficult for Zoom to keep its place in the market.

Overall, Zoom is a good product and I recommend it for video conferencing. That is what it's made for. The fact that it's a standalone product has certain benefits. For example, Microsoft Teams is integrated with everything from Microsoft. It works well for those use cases but sometimes, you just don't want that. I expect that Zoom will eventually integrate more with other products from Microsoft but I actually hope that they don't. They would be recreating something that is already there.

I would rate this solution a nine out of ten.

Zoom has been a complete substitution for the personal face-to-face interview. Everything we have been doing through Zoom. Every work meeting, every customer meeting, every interview for jobs. Everything that has to do with the interactions with another person. We only use Zoom due to the fact that, even though we could use some other technologies like Teams or even WhatsApp or anything like that, we prefer to use Zoom as we have the control of what is recorded and exactly what is going on in the meeting. We have been using it for every internal and external meeting - everything that we do. My agenda is just full of Zoom meetings. That is my life.

The most valuable aspect of the solution is the controls that you have for security. They have been enhanced a lot in the recent versions. When you are the owner of the meeting, you basically have control over everything. It is really important when you are in a situation in which someone tries to enter your meeting and he doesn't belong or doesn't identify him or herself. You can just easily remove them. 

Understanding the different options you have is easy. The identified users have to be allowed in with authentication. You will have people that are from the organization or from some other organization and you can ask for authentification or you can have a meeting in which anyone can join. Even so, at the moment you have the option of doing something that will give you control over the meeting. For me, that's one of the most useful things.

It's very simple to manage.

The solution is stable.

The scalability is good.

The solution is easy to set up.

We are entering into these meta universes of applications in which virtual reality is going to be very, very important. They're starting to explore some of those things by having options of creating templates that visualize a meeting room, for example. There are visualizations that give you the illusion that you are in the same place. However, there are many more things that they can do, and the room there is endless in terms of improvements.

There are ways that you can get information from the cameras and try to map something that could be more 3D and try to make it much more virtual in terms of creating a virtual world. That is an area that Zoom has been just been scratching the surface of. In the future, I expect they will have better UI.  

It would be great if there was a bit more camera control. For example, cropping the image, and improving the background remover features, which can be buggy right now.

I've been using the solution for five years or so.

It is very stable, even though it has issues such as dropping meetings occasionally. That said, that's anecdotal. It's something that might happen once every a hundred meetings or something like that. There have been glitches, however, it's not something that we are worried about.

In the beginning, scalability may have been an issue, as the pandemic hit and they went from zero to one million quite fast, however, that's mostly been resolved. 

Everybody in our company uses it right now.

We have tested for almost 2000 people internally as we have users on the webinar mode directly. The webinars that we are now doing for customers are on Zoom. That is in the tens of thousands of people. There is a limit for the meetings that we could hold in our version as the employee, however, there are versions within the company that is unlimited in terms of the people that it can hold. We have been doing very well with that technology in terms of the number of people we can handle. 

We used to use Cisco WebEx, however, everyone wanted to switch over to Zoom.

The problem we had with WebEx was the version that we were using was not up to date. There was always a requirement for a call with a phone for the audio, and for the video and the interaction was online. That was a big problem as there were no international calls. There was a way for you to receive a callback, however, that doesn't work all the time. The quality of the sound was not good for WebEx when you were using the phone. Zoom had a very good quality of sound. You can also stream music and have high-quality audio.

I also used Microsoft Teams in the past. I didn't care much for Teams. There are things that annoy me from Teams. I use it sometimes still as some customers are required to use Teams instead of Zoom. There is this situation in Teams in which you are not actually seeing all the pictures of the faces of the people. When you enter a meeting, you're just seeing a couple of them and then you have to go to participants to see them. The interface is also not as easy as Zoom in many ways. For me to get to the chat part is like a mystery.

I've used Goot Meet occasionally too. There are some lacking features and it's not as easy to use. Sometimes the share screen or the share sound for the computer doesn't work at all. Sometimes [you have to install plugins. It doesn't have a client install on the computer. It is not very useful for me. In that area, still Zoom is more advanced than the others.

The initial setup is really easy. In the beginning, they had some issues with the ports and some things. We had some issues with some customers in that, due to security reasons, they were not able to use Zoom. That was an issue, however, that was two years ago, and, largely due to the fact that it was such a massive problem at the time, it caused headaches for many people. Right now, however, it's one of the easiest solutions to deal with. 

Since it is a managed solution, a software as a service, everything seems to be completely taken care of by Zoom.

We are using the paid version of the solution. The exact costs are handled on a corporate level, however, I understand that if you just want to own a license for your small business or something like that, it's around $300 a year, which is very reasonable. It gives you a lot of features that are good for you, such as the storage of the meetings if you recorded on the cloud, which is something that you cannot do if you have the free version.

We're using the solution as a customer. It's our main tool right now.

We are using the most recent version of the solution.

I'd advise people that the change in the process of your work will be impacted by how you plan things. For instance, there are easier ways, when you apply best practices, to make your life easier. There is a button, for example, in Outlook in which you can just insert all the information for the Zoom meeting without having to plug in a link. Or you can actually create a specific unique meeting ID and you will not have any worries if you are always using your personal meeting room, that you will overlap with people entering into the meeting that you don't want.

I would rate the solution at a nine out of ten.

We use Zoom for our virtual meetings. Specifically, whenever we require a face-to-face meeting, or screen sharing, or content sharing during the meeting, we use Zoom.

Zoom helps us because it provides a whiteboard during the meeting. This is a very good feature. Most of the time, we have to show flow diagrams during our meetings and the whiteboard is helpful in this regard.

We can save a recording of each of our meetings.

The interface requires some slight improvement in that it could better show the meeting attendees. Essentially, the interface could be more user-friendly.

I have been using Zoom for approximately a year and a half.

Zoom is used extensively and it is quite stable. Currently, all of the employees in the organization use it, almost on a daily basis. 

This is a scalable solution. We have nearly 10,000 users and if our headcount increases, our usage of Zoom will also increase.

When the users have problems, they do not reach out to Zoom's technical support directly. Rather, they reach out to the organization's technical support group. As such, I have never been in contact with Zoom.

We did not use another virtual meeting solution before implementing Zoom.

As a cloud-based product, it does not require installation.

It is similar to a subscription-based model where you get a login ID and password, and then you can utilize it.

Because it doesn't need to be installed, the technical team is not involved. Each user can do it by themself.

Zoom is licensed as a subscription model and it is available on a monthly or yearly basis.

We did not evaluate other options.

This is a good product and I definitely recommend it for others who are interested in using it.

I would rate this solution an eight out of ten.
