I am avid user of Google meet. I use it for almost any other meetings be it my internal team or other teams and even stakeholders and vendors for the organization. It has a significant importance and due to its borderless integration I use it to connect to the teams based out of my country's geographical borders. Moreover it becomes highly feasible and easy for me to set up meetings with anyone because of the find a time feature and also send them a invite and reminders without me having to take no additional steps for the same.

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.

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.

2. You have to simply create an account and join by the Google Meet link.
3. Google Meet helps us in solving the business organization problems.
4. It has a huge scope in the future.

Google Meet is one of the most prominent tools in my organization as it provides the ease to both students and teachers to work properly. It provides the student and teacher to interact using both audio and video. Taking lectures and tutorials are quite easy using google Meet and help both the teacher and student.

Google Meet is one of our top five video conferencing solutions. My firm has a very diverse communications universe as we interact daily with clients and organizations across the state and nation. Therefore we need to be confident and capable with all front line video conferencing options that are used by these stakeholders. Google is ubiquitous in the legal industry and the retail customers we rely on are almost universally familiar with Google as a company. Google Meet seamlessly integrates with our Google calendar function, and we are generally very pleased with the actual technical performance of the program. I wouldsay it gets used 2-25 times a month, all depending on who sends the invitations. Our firm prefers another service as a top choice, but Google Meet is a close second and is commonly the backup.

My organization uses Google Meet on a daily basis, and we are extremely satisfied with the product. It is extremely quick and convenient to set up a meeting which is why I prefer it over Zoom. It syncs with my Google Calendar and doesn't require extra programs since it just pops up in a second tab. This program really covers it all.

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.

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.

As an educational organization, we hold lectures every week and before the lectures, we have to prepare the team and organize ourselves and the best way to do that is by using the Google hangout Meet app, it can provide a quick, simple and easy way of communication between the team members/event organizers. And sometimes you rely on Google hangout meet more than just for quick meetings we sometimes use it as the main platform for the lectures

I have used Google Hangout Meets for my contact with the team I was mentoring during a hackathon organised by the British Computer Society and establishing some new relationships with potential business partners. I found it very helpful to connect with people regardless of the organisations they belonged to - in the end quite a few people have google account nowadays.

Google Hangouts Meet along with the entire Google suite is very useful when it comes to connectivity as well as the ability to sync various meetings in your calendar so that no one can miss any important meeting in their day.
The users also get the flexibility to use either the web client or the mobile client which enhances the mobility that the users can experience when using Google Hangouts Meet.

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.

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.

We have been using Google Meet for a very long time now to hold web meetings. It is to make quick calls and connect with teammates and clients. It is so easy to use and the ease of integration with other Google products makes it even better. The software is used across all departments and it makes connectivity easy.

Google Hangouts is used as a video conferencing application in our company since after the pandemic started. As our offices were forced to close for offline work, the members of the company decided to move to Google Hangouts/Google Meet for the meetings with our clients. We usually talk with our clients and peers using the application.
