Likelihood to Recommend Amazon Chime is well suited for online video and audio meetings, IMs, and conducting training sessions using a whiteboard. It can be integrated well with Google Calendar and Microsoft outlook. With Amazon Chime mobile app you can attend meetings on the go as well. Meetings can be locked so that only legitimate participants can join the meeting. Amazon Chime is less suited in case you want meeting transcripts as well for your meetings. Given that Amazon Chime is not used by a larger audience so your client or customer may face some difficulties in join the meeting or accessing some of the features of the Chime.
Read full review It is the perfect companion for storing all those little bits of information you need to do your job well, the best thing is getting it all out of your head and in to Google Keep. You can trust it to hold that information for you, and you know you can go back and use its excellent search functionality to find that information at a later date. It can also work really well for your personal life as well. I have two accounts, my work account and my personal account - I use them both in different contexts but I have always found Google Keep is great for both.

Ability to record any meeting and automatically downloads the meeting recording after ending the meeting. UI is clean and easy to navigate around Amazon Chime. Ability to invite outside guests easily using Amazon Chime without any issues. Read full review It's incredibly quick to load, it doesn't take long to pull up any note you have no matter how much information is in the note. The ability to collaborate on a Google Keep note is also great! It allows for two or more of you to work on a project in one space. I also love that I can color coordinate. I can make all my meeting notes one color, my personal notes another color and so on. Enjoying the pinning feature that allows me to keep my important notes right at the top so I don't have to go searching for them when needed. Read full review Cons More simplified dial-in numbers. The PIN for our conference line is long and easy to mistype. You do not have to download the Chime app in order to join a conference, but if you want to do anything beyond join (schedule a conference, participate in a group chat, control participants), you have to have the app downloaded and installed. The app that you have to download in order to launch a conference is a memory hog, and slows down a computer's boot up time. The add-in for Microsoft Outlook is particularly clunky. It helps you add scheduled conference calls/video conferences to your Outlook calendar, but it can cause Outlook to crash, and creates a really slow open time for Outlook. If you can avoid downloading the Outlook Add-In, I would. No built-in screen sharing capabilities. Read full review The iOS app sometimes gets into a state and doesn't update your notes (won't show new notes from other devices / computer), needs to be re-installed to resolve Your notes take up space in your Google account's quota, though this is not very apparent at first - you have to keep an eye on what you are storing - huge pictures better not go in there Read full review Likelihood to Renew It does everything I need it to do. It is easy to organize and categorize what I need and what I want to see.
Read full review Usability Google Keep is very easy to use. Currently, the company I work for has employees from different age brackets, and this is one of the easiest apps on G-Suite to explain. Not a lot of people use it, but it is due to personal choice since a lot of people still prefer pen and paper to keep their notes.
Read full review Support Rating They were very supportive in answering all of our questions when we had problems. Their in-person calls but their support site also had a full set of information that can answer a good portion of your questions before you have to pick up the phone. But when you, you will get good service.
Read full review I gave this rating based on the ease of use, the simple functionality and how well it does at keeping my attention and helping me continue to use it and stay on track. The functionality mentioned before alongside the reminder functions and how it utilizes Google's powerful machine learning tech to better its software is remarkable.

Skype for Business in terms of loading the application onto your device.
Skype had crashing issues always and those are comparatively low when using Amazon Chime. Amazon chime is fast and easy to work with while collaborating and setting up meetings. The audio and video quality are better than
Skype for Business .
Read full review The main differential of Google Keep is its simplicity and efficiency for quick notes. I can draw on the card, put a photo, record audio if I can't write at the moment, in short, for everyday tasks, simple things, it is superior.
Read full review Return on Investment The positive ROI is Amazon Chime helps make our sales reps more professional in their calls leading to an increase in closed/won deals. Amazon Chime has increased overall morale across our sales team because it has greatly improved our call processes when compared to other tools we've used in the past. Read full review Google Keep is free, and for what I need it for I don't need to purchase another tool. It's handy when it comes to taking quick notes, but so is a piece of paper. This tool won't magically improve your life. Read full review ScreenShots
