Verified User
- Recording : Recordings done by Zoom are high quality and are in very small size. This makes recordings portable and also Zoom provides direct Live on YouTube feature.
- UI : The user interface of Zoom is very easy and simple. The options are well stacked and enlarged so one can understand them. Scheduling, sharing, starting a meeting is [not] rocket science in Zoom.
- Presentation : With zoom one can easily present the screen or any particular document. It has annotation tools which is very useful while teaching online.
- One Click Join : With this anyone can join the Zoom meeting links with just one click. No sign up required, no wastage of time.
- Limitation for BASIC User : Zoom currently have 100 participants limit and 45 minute meeting limit for Basic users but I think it must have to be increased in order to have a more brief look over its working
- Cloud Storage For Basic User : Zoom doesn't provide any cloud storage for your recordings for Basic Users, while MS Teams does, and I think that where zoom can make improvements.
- Video Presentation : Zoom lacks performance at the time of video presentation. Video lags at the time of presentation.
- Very easy to use.
- Ability to connect through desktop, mobile apps or even landline.
- The webinar recording is a great feature.
- Chatting within the mobile app can be a little difficult.

Zoom your way to better video conferencing.
- Zoom is platform agnostic. It's easy for anyone with a phone or device to attend a webinar.
- Zoom doesn't require downloading or signing up for software. Users can click through the provided URLs and are immediately in the webinar space.
- Zoom provides direct access to meetings. Some of the platforms we sampled required attendees to "appear" in a waiting room and be approved by the host. This complicated matters when the host is trying to "host" the webinar and approve people. We love that with Zoom people can pop in, drop out, and come back any time during the presentation and discussion.
- I would love to see the ability to change recording features. For example, when we record a webinar, it captures whomever is speaking/presenting. I would love the option to set the video record parameters to capture other elements, including chat and discussion.
- I would love to see Zoom embed a video editing component to their offerings. Currently, we download the webinar recording, import it into a video-editing software, and then place introduction and conclusion elements. Why can't I just do this straight into Zoom. Maybe they can partner with Microsoft or Adobe Photoshop Elements to easily feature drop-and-drag video editing. This would enable users to brand webinars inside the platform.

- Audio can present issues at times

Zoom Review
- For news interview purposes Zoom has been amazing. Better than Skype even. Once it is installed into a device, no one has issues.
- For voice recording and onboarding new staff. It is easy to use and has an attractive look.
- The price is great for individuals but has heard complaints within the company about how the price does not make sense considering how little we use it.
- Time limitations for meetings have made it a little difficult to work with especially with users in the company who are long-winded. It might be something on my end where I am not figuring out how the program works.

A great tool for the Webinar world, for Small & Medium webinars
- Zoom lets you play any streaming videos smoothly without any lag.
- It helps a great option to record and archive important recordings.
- If you have not attended a Zoom webcast, please plan to join five minutes early. Sometimes it takes time to get there.
- You may be prompted to “Run” the program software, which sometimes takes over 3 to 5 minutes, and then only you will enter the Webcast.

Building a team remotely
- Multiple users at once.
- Easy interface.
- Scheduling conference calls.
- Becoming a little easier to use on the app.
- Sharing documents in a meeting could be more smooth.
- Zoom is convenient and easy to use. This means I can use it easily, but also my clients appreciate that it's not very technical or hard to figure out. It works for everyone!
- Zoom is affordable. I appreciate that I can use it for free up to so many minutes, and that I can have some free storage. I pay to use it for longer periods and this is affordable, too.
- It's easy for my clients to create an account, access the meetings and join. They don't mind going to the effort of using a technical tool, so I am able to use this service often and it adds value to what I offer.
- I hardly ever have technical difficulties, so it is reliable, which is very important to me!
- I am able to switch screens to show my documents or slides. This is very nice in my workshops so that my attendees can follow along and understand better. I think it's easy to use!
- I would like it if Zoom offered cheaper storage for my recordings. It is expensive. So we upload our recordings to YouTube.
- I am happy with all other aspects of Zoom!

Zoom to progress!
- We use Zoom with our internal software development team which is global in scale to review code, product enhancements, and general collaboration.
- It is great for our external presentation to prospects.
- The only issue I have is that I have been a user of GoToMeeting for many years and very comfortable with the tools and navigation. Using Zoom took some time to adapt to their platform and tools.

Industry standard for video conferencing
- Usually, it offers a crisp video.
- It's nice that you can have multiple hosts to control the meeting.
- It's sometimes hard for our clients to get into the meeting in a seamless manner. When a new client clicks a zoom link it always prompts them to download the app instead of just launching in their browser.

Explore other options so you can see how terrible they are. Then get Zoom because it just freakin' works!
- Easy for the administrator to set up and get started.
- Easy for participants to jump in. No configurations. It just works right out of the box.
- Really easy interface with clear buttons/actions.
- Fast and reliable.
- It can get expensive with a large team.
- Some features in Zoom Meeting aren't in the Zoom Webinar (and vice versa).
- The analytical data you can get on your viewers isn't as good as GoToWebinar. The tradeoff is still that Zoom Webinar is a frictionless experience.

Zoom Video Webinar is great
- Great way to meet face to face with our internal team and with our clients.
- We use this tool to share and collaborate on documents. Allows us to make real time edits.
- Zoom is very user friendly and very few call in or user issues. Some of the other web conferencing tools we use often drop calls or have issues with sharing.
- Notification of a when a new chat has been typed would be great. Often times there will be a chat and no one sees it.
- Notification of updates that need to be done ahead of time would be great. It's always frustrating to have to do an update right before a call. Or allow individuals to still get on a call and then update after the call.
- I don't have any other suggestions. I enjoy using zoom and I appreciate that we rarely have any connectivity issues.

Great to Grow & Expand Your Company
- One thing that is amazing about Zoom is that you can pull up a PowerPoint, use a laser or draw on it and then record yourself presenting it to people!
- Another thing I love about Zoom is that you can schedule meetings and send out the ID for them so that people can mark it on their calendars and join if they want to.
- One thing that Zoom does that I like is that every one that is on can have their face showing and talk or respond if they want to. You can chat with so many people at once from all over!
- I'd love to see where you can make a personal meeting ID. I would like to be able to name my meetings so that people know what it is and its easier to put the ID number in.
- I'd also like it if I'm not showing my face, my little screen goes away because I always think that my face is still being shown even if it isn't.

Zoom at its best!!
- Video interview meetings
- Audio interview meetings
- Screen sharing in meetings
- Zoom is very easy to use for anyone who has or does not have knowledge, you adapt very quickly to its interface.
- It takes time to connect through link.
- I don't like the feature that Zoom doesn't tell me the count of calls I made on a daily basis. I have to manually count in the Zoom desktop app that I use.

Simple and Easy to Use Platform.
- Zoom Video Webinar is easy to install and use. It is extremely user friendly.
- Many apps can be integrated with Zoom. I integrated Google Calendar with Zoom to manage my schedule easily.
- The quality of video streaming is much better than other similar vendors. It is rare to experience technical issues during video-based meetings.
- Sometimes the users are inaudible. Like other video communication platforms, I need to exit and return back to the meeting to solve the problem.

Zoom for network marketing business
- Can watch or listen via mobile app
- It’s free
- Can ask questions/interact
- I like that don’t have to be on Facebook or anything to use it - but would be great if it could be connected to FB or Instagram live.
- It’s hard to send instructions for log in to people - I find people get confused.
October 18, 2019
User-friendly platform for distance meetings
- Easy to use platform.
- Nice customer support.
- Many great features like voting or short questions to keep the audience engaged in a training session.
- High-quality audio and video.
- Mobile app video and audio quality need some development.
October 05, 2019
Great for the little guys!
- Virtual meetings - Our team is able to communicate face to face for weekly meetings regardless of our location.
- Training sessions - The screen share feature plus the ability to record training sessions makes long-distance a non-issue.
- Mobile option - Works on a desktop as well as through the mobile app, so meetings can happen wherever.
- It does use a lot of bandwidth to run, and I have encountered issues with connectivity with the mobile app.
- Previously there were some privacy issues that Zoom did not address initially. We even had a meeting hacked by someone trying to crash the party. Those issues seem to have been addressed with the most recent update.

Easiest webinar tool
- Easy to set up
- Super reliable
- Great sharing features
- The UI feels outdated
- Meetings can be integrated with external calendars that provides an advanced option to facilitate interactions when meeting starts, such as asking for a password to prevent unauthorized access.
- Chat with other attendees and store relevant information about them in an address book inside Zoom
- Screen share with others in a meeting while having the ability to record audio and video.
- Share only a specific window or an entire desktop.
- It is not convenient in Zoom Webinar that toolbar is not displayed properly when set at the bottom of the screen, as it only opens from top to bottom.
- Main window can't easily be resized as some buttons will disappear and become unusable when there is a meeting going on.

Video Conference Powerhouse
- Screen sharing: Zoom enables users to seamlessly share their screen, chat through messages, and empowers listeners to virtually raise their hand when they have a question.
- Mute all participants: Zoom can allow presenters to mute all participants and prevent their video feed from being broadcast
- Works on any device: Users can log in from a computer, tablet, or smartphone
- Some users outside the organization have complained about issues getting the Zoom links to work
- Once in a blue moon, we have audio issues with Zoom, the video will work fine but sometime the audio will cut in and out
- It would be great for mobile users to be able to select any user in a conference and see their video feed (instead of letting Zoom decide)
