Google Hangouts (Classic) vs. Weel

Had I completed this review a couple years ago, I would have given a rating of 9 or 10 as Hangouts (Classic) is an excellent product. However, now that Google Chat has succeeded Hangouts, I would not recommend that any new users begin using it where other more modern options are available. Android users who want an internet based instant messaging that also supports calling and video calling could benefit from using Hangouts (Classic) as Google Chat requires the user to also have Google Meet installed to make video calls and there is no voice only calling option.

Weel is well suited for businesses where there are multiple teams and if each team needs to track of their budget. It also suits if there are new projects and each project has its own team and team incurs expenses for the business. For example, if there is a construction project and each team needs to use their credit cards to pay some instant expenses, weel is well suited to assign a budget to the team so team does not spend more than what they are assigned (or can be approved) and it is easy to issue/cancel cards on the fly

• I would like to see improved video support, so that saved videos can be sent back and forth via Hangouts more easily, without having to start a separate meet chat
• More pronounced notifications of messages would be helpful; pop up notifications are good, but once there is one, additional messages do not pop up
• Custom muting times would be great, so that if I am in a 90 minute Zoom meeting, I can set it for that time; right now, it is 1 hour or 2 hours. Easy to forget.

The tool is almost self-implemented. It is likely to be available in every pc or mobile device a user or potential user might have, and all you need to do is adding the company's account and you are done. Once you are setted up, you have almost all actual communication methods available in one tool

Google Hangouts works great and does not require a lot of work to troubleshoot. Everything is simple and easy to use. Google provides all of the tools that one requires to utilize Google Hangouts and any information can be found in the built-in help tools. There is also a forum for users to report issues and typically, Google responds well and will try to work out any issues.

Google is the white cotton socks of the conferencing world. It’s a great ad-hoc tool, but not too much more. If you are not looking to spend money or operate completely on WiFi (without data charges), it’s a great free option as well. The benefit of being free and open is also the liability. It doesn’t have a great integration story with other corporate tools, but [it doesn’t have to] if you aren’t looking for that. All in all, it’s as helpful and ubiquitous as a public payphone…without the pay…and with a video capability.

Weel has very easy user interface, it is easy to go around the system and support is very knowledgeable if you need any help. AMEX is not as user friendly as Weel and top of it, Weel provides good integration with Xero accounting system. Dashboard is very visible by all employees and users

• I believe it was part of the google suite that was purchased. It was worth the cost as it was cheaper. I believe it is now free, but also becoming deprecated. It is much better to use Teams, Discord, Telegram, etc. Google does not provide enough support or features to make using hangouts worth it these days.

• We used to waste our time to chase the bank to get and issue a card for employees, it is almost instant to do it via Weel.
• We spent hours to keep track of reimbursement expenses and employees had to wait to get paid back but with Weel, it is all automated and approval process is very visible.
