Day-to-day video conferencing, project discussions, attending online sessions, sessions online for people who are remote, and for sure the pandemic has escalated that. Also, the screen sharing feature is great for witnessing signatures. Google Hangouts Meet has made it simple to set up emergency meetings to sort out production issues if and when they come up. A meeting is always just a link away.
- Fully integrated with other Google Workspace products.
- Great Customer Support section.
- Start a meeting instantly.
- Easy to use.
- Limited features.
- Not more than 100 participants.
- No session recording feature.

Google Meet - Yes Or No ?
The Google Meet was basically used for conducting Online Classes , Exams, Webinars and Competitions. The major problem that most students face is that they cannot record meetings when they require as recordings .Also, the number of participants should be apprxoimately 500 as it creates a lot of problems while conducting webinars.

A simple and indispensable tool for the home office!! We use it every day, Google Meet is one of the most used tools in the company. We do all our daily meetings there, the weekly and monthly ones as well. there are many internal meetings with customers through Meet! we spend an average of 40 minutes in our daily meetings, the weekly meetings are around 60 minutes, and the monthly meetings are also around 60 minutes. As our company operates entirely from home, it is an indispensable tool for us.
- Presentation, fast and quality image.
- Works with a bad connections.
- Backup call, if we have problems we can use a number to call and continuous at de call, just calling a phone number!
- Simple to use
- Personalization of the organization of the camera screens presents in the call.
- Improve the chat, I don't know, but it should improve usability or accessibility, maybe stay in another part of the meet space.
- Notifications, I hate forget a call, maybe if I stay at the main room I could be noticed.

I am currently using Google Meet in my organization for daily standup, important meetings, and basically for all meetings that we communicate between teams for any information to be shared. The business problem so far I faced is the internet as it requires some high bandwidth to make clear audios otherwise it will make some unclear audios.
- Good user interface
- Quick connection with the person
- Multiple person screen sharing
- Able to choose people to be on the screen instead of random 10 people to be shown on screen
- Better noise cancellation
- UI theme changes access

I used Google Meet to conduct linguistic training sessions for translators across three time zones in Indonesia. I was based in the U.S. In addition to training, we also addressed translation and language development problems experienced in the field and brainstormed solutions. We used video conferencing and employed screen sharing during each session.
- Excellent video quality
- Excellent audio quality
- Seamless screen sharing
- Problems encountered only when Internet signals were weak
- I had some difficulty at first trying to figure out if participants could see me when I was sharing my screen.

All-in-one, free, easy to use, and great for team communication

Google Hangouts Meet is used throughout my organization and not just my department. However, in my department, we mostly use it while making team strategies as it's quite an easy video conferencing tool. As a contact person, my department's job is to flow the information we receive throughout our organization, so Google Meet comes in handy when we are deciding to whom and where to pass the information. Our team joins for a conference call in Google Meet and we divide the work among our teammates.
- First off, the quality of the call is pretty good, especially when all of us are working remotely.
- We can easily schedule our meeting in Google Calendar.
- Sending an invitation link is easy.
- What makes Google Meet stand out from other video conferencing tools is that we can use it for an unlimited time, even if we use the free account.
- There is no hand raise feature in a normal account on Google Meet, unlike in Zoom where participants can raise hands in meetings hosted from a normal account.
- Having a grid view feature would take Google Meet to another level.
- The meeting recording option is hard to find.

Huddles made easy!!
Google Hangouts Meet is being used throughout the entire company to connect with each other or conduct meetings/huddles and catch-up's through video calls. We use the service on a daily.
The reason we like "Meet" is it does not require any major app installations on computer devices, it's easy and simple to use. It also consumes lesser data in comparison to other software with the same features.

Great value for the price and easy to use
We use Google Hangouts Meet to have staff meetings and training, multiple departments across the whole company use it as it's an easy and quick way to get together in a meeting. Now that we're working from home, it has been crucial to the quick communication between staff members and other departments.
- First and foremost, it's free. It has a limited amount of users and time, but the value is great.
- It's easy to access, as you don't have to download any application and the connection to the servers is great.
- The user interface is simple and clear for everyone, you may not be able to use it with children, but everyone is able to read and act accordingly when performing a task (sharing screens, sharing files, chatting, turning features off and on, etc.).
- You can use features in Google's portfolio to your advantage while using it
- It doesn't have all the features that other meeting/training options have, like annotations that are easy to use or remote control when sharing a screen

Google Meet - Is it worth it?

It is used across the whole organization. With the onset of the coronavirus pandemic, our district turned to Google Apps for education to provide remote learning services to our students. We purchased Google Apps, and I became of the administrators for the service. We ran an experiment to find out whether this purchase would be worth it by having some teachers operate the free version while having some teachers use Hangouts Meet (purchased). We gleaned that Meet provided much higher quality video calls and is much better suited for the business or school platforms.
- High quality video on video calls
- High quality audio on video calls
- The ability to present ones screen, optimal for presentations and such
- The tiled view has a glitch in which it occasionally does not work.
- Options to “raise a hand” virtually to get the attention of a teacher if used in an education setting
- The ability to mute particular members of the call
