Google Meet, formerly Hangouts Meet, replaces the former Google Hangouts as the company's G Suite integrated web conferencing tool, allowing users to join meetings directly from a Calendar event or email invite from a computer, phone, or conference room. G Suite's Enterprise edition also creates a dial-in phone number for each meeting, as an additional convenience.

Chose Google Meet
It does not cut meetings after 40 minutes if you have not subscribed, unlike the other one. The meeting will run as long as possible, enabling you to have a productive meeting with or without a subscription.
Chose Google Meet
Similar to Google Meet, as I said, Teams — I use Zoom, I use… I’m not a fan of Zoom, although it’s cool, really cool. I find Google Meet easy, but Teams, I would say, has many more features than Google Meet. So these are the three platforms I usually work with.
Chose Google Meet
I use Microsoft Teams, but obviously Google Meet is much better than that because there are some challenges which I see as part of this. One of the main pros that I see here is that in Google Meet, whenever you have all those recordings as part of the Google Suite, you have …
Chose Google Meet
Slack is not capable of handling large attendees so we are using Google Meet when number of attendees are higher.
Chose Google Meet
It stands out because of its user friendly interface which is quite intuitive and simple to use and its integration with Google work space. Unlike Zoom which comes up with more advanced webinar features. Meet provides ease of use and accessibility. As compared to Microsoft Teams
Chose Google Meet
Zoom can be defined as a much easier , advanced and accessible version of the Google meet with multiple features such as selective chat enable , polls , emoticons , real time liveboard and calendly integration as well
Chose Google Meet
Google Hangouts Meet has integration with other Google Workspace products which stands as a unique feature [compared to] any other software available in the market. Also, it provides high data security with Google's data storage security. Zoom requires high internet …

1) Comparitavely Google meet uses less amount of internet (or mobile data) as compared To Cisco Webex is the main reason for using Google Meet . 2) Moreover, participants need not to ask for permission to join even if they have left the call . They can simply do the same in …
Chose Google Meet
Because Meet is simple to use, you use it with weaker internet, you can quickly integrate it with your schedule and maintain a controlled meeting frequency. If you use G-suit as a whole, you have more control and integration of the tools, which makes it a lot easier, but …
Chose Google Meet
Google Meet provides good facilities at many situations than any other software.
Chose Google Meet

We haven't actually selected Google Meet as a replacement for the others - rather each has its own niche.
Chose Google Meet
I prefer Zoom, but Google Meet is a good alternative. Zoom is more secure and easier to manage. Zoom has more customization and I trust it more, as too many Google apps get changed without you knowing.
Chose Google Meet
Each product has its own pros and cons for example we cannot use the previously mentioned product for quick meetings because it's a bit complicated than Google hangout means so we tend to rely on each product depending on the scenario/condition that we will be facing, for …
Chose Google Meet
If I was to choose, I would go for MS Teams or Skype as it helps me to keep minutes or other notes and get back to them whenever I need. I am not a huge fan of Zoom however depends on how the organiser sets it up it allows downloading chat/minutes that I personally find very …

Easy to use
Integration with calendar and google account
Chose Google Meet
At the time we stayed with Google Hangouts Meet as it was already integrated into our main email delivery.
Chose Google Meet
Each of these tools have their own advantages but Google meet is a great tool when it comes to having an entire package right from sending out an email to syncing the calendar and then having the meetings.
Chose Google Meet
Google Meet has almost all the same features that other applications offer, basically you dot need to worry about missing features since you're at the same level. Google meet has a modern design, light application with a very easy UI.
Chose Google Meet
Google Meet stands out among other similar products in many ways, but the one way it particularly outshines all of them is the unlimited time period.
Chose Google Meet
The decision was easy to make, although Google Hangouts Meet, Skype and Zoom met the initial objective, we were inclined to choose Google Hangouts Meet because it not only does a much better job, it is easy to use, it's secure, and guarantees confidentiality in all connections, …
Chose Google Meet
Google Meet is my all-time favorite thanks to its many features and the fact that it is affordable. The software also integrates well with other Google products.
Chose Google Meet
I feel all the other options have a huge list of features. Some of them support host permission sharing, large audience, whiteboards, anonymous participants etc. But the whole point of using Google Meet is the ease of access. With no installation required, it covers almost all …

Well suited for both our workplace and virtual meetings, especially when people are not in one place. It is also more appropriate with audio, visual, and captions. It is also more appropriate to send a recording to your drive for reference on parts that a host may not have captured.

Pros
Google
  • It’s easy.
  • It’s integrated with Slack, so you just need to type a command and the link is generated, ready. You don’t need to go do scheduling — it’s quick to get a link in order to initiate a meeting. So that’s really quick.
  • Another thing is, it has an option for conversation in it, so I really like that you can have the video conferencing, and side by side, Q&A can also be taking place. You can either have a dedicated Q&A session going on, or you can have a global chat process also.

Cons
Google
  • One of the challenges that I see is that whenever we have in a meeting, we won't be able to drop some of the documents that we have. That's one of the big challenges which I see in Google Meet. At that point of time, we either have to Slack or we have to share an email. We cannot do that, like sending that particular document in the Google meet chat.

This app is still having a lot of redundant features as compared to other industry apps such as Zoom and Webex which offers much more on the functionality side along with the option to have greater user access control to the admin/host of the meetings. A sense of interaction is always found to be missing in Google meet which can be easily adopted in the Zoom

Usability

Google Meet is very easy and simple to use. I can schedule a meeting right on my calendar - it literally takes a few seconds. There is no additional app I have to open to schedule anything. Guests can click on the link easily to join any meetings. 10/10!

Support Rating

Google does a great job of providing tech support for this product, as it does many others. Similarly, Google has FAQs that cover a large amount of issues faced by users. Problems have not persisted in our use of this product. Problems are resolved quickly and easily, with or without personal Google support.

Alternatives Considered
Google
The main positive feature in Google Meet over Zoom to me is the fact that Google meet can be seamlessly deployed in the browser with its full functionality. Unlike Zoom for which you need to download an extra application to use. This consequently makes workflow smooth when transitioning between something like emails and taking part in a meeting.

Contract Terms and Pricing Model

I wasn't involved in the unit pricing factor. So far I used Google meet in the office where I got access to all these Google applications including the Google Meet feature. So I wasn't involved much in this pricing factor of Google Meet and also regarding the contact terms of the product.

Professional Services
Google
This is very good in the professional services as I started using this first for the professional service only. While using this Google Meet itself gives a professional feel as the UI works in a professional way. The video background modification, multi-screen feature, and some other features help in professional service.

  • It's definitely the way that we engage with our customers and each other. So I think it's really good that it can help you bring remote people together and feel like you've met with them online. And then when you meet them in person you're like, this tracks, this definitely coincides with who I saw online. So it definitely is a really good platform to just bring people together, but remotely.
