(1-25 of 36)Zoom for Events
- Zoom rooms are particularly helpful especially in breakouts and allowing event attendees to get to know one another
- Zoom is easy to use when I need to record an event or presentation so that I can share and engage with donor and friends who cannot attend
- Presenting via zoom is easy to use for myself and for guest speakers even those who are not as tech savvy
- While I like the zoom rooms sometimes there have been delays in starting them leading to confusion with attendees - this may be a connection issue rather than a product issue but wanted to mention it
- Zoom does tend to get more glitchy then other platforms I have used - especially when presenting my screen or sharing a video. Not sure why.
We used zoom for several team meetings where it allowed us to talk as one large group and then break out into rooms and allowed us to connect more intimately as small groups

- It is a fantastic tool for recording and archiving critical recordings.
- It could be easier to share documents at a meeting.

Know The Zoom Way of Meeting Up!!
- The screen sharing feature
- Recording of meetings
- Providing breakup room
- Admin controls.
- Chat option
- Sometimes irrelevant background noise creates disturbances that need to be identified and auto mute them
- Identifying spamming messages on chat option and providing admin to block or remove
- When having large participants presentation screen to users ratio should be properly adjustable
- It is also prone to cyber-attack like we fear having a sensitive discussion which is crucial to the organization, so if zoom provides a highly secure connection at premium charges, it will be highly appreciated
3.office events.
4. Conducting meeting seminars for a huge crowd like for thousands .
5. The events or private meetings which need to be recorded and be stored in cloud memory for future references.
6.It is also prefect for medium sized enterprises where meetups are more frequent.
7. It can also be sync with slack which most of the enterprise uses.
Zoom meetings are less appreciated in.
1.Highly sensitive meetings.
2.In a conversational class or interactive teaching programs where 2 -3 people couldn't be heard distinctibly and it creates chaos.
3.Using it as debate forum whould be of less use people can't be assessed properly when their body guestures could be judged properly and simultaneously people talks creates easy chaos.
- 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.
Zoom is the reliable option
- Reliable.
- Simple.
- Intuitive.
- Interface.
- User experience.
Zooming into better productivity!
- Meeting invites
- Screen sharing
- Sometimes clients have issues getting on the call
- 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!
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.
For group training, it allowing participants to ask questions and presenting content without any hiccups. You can gauge the participation level and share content like PDFs/slides/etc. You can also invite additional hosts and have multiple cameras if you have a Q&A style session. I even know of colleges that use Zoom to connect multiple classrooms in different cities together.
For presentations with clients/companies - it just works! Any computer with access to a browser can get it to work - no messy configurations or long installs. I can share the zoom link with them and see them in the room within 2-3 minutes. Try that with Skype/GoToWebinar, and it'll take 10-15 minutes of installing, account creation, and other annoying setups. We can whiteboard, draw things out, share a screen with a Google Document... it's great.
Zoom Video Webinar isn't a replacement for live training. No technology is.
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.
Zoom Zoom Zoom!
- Clear video and audio
- Ability to quickly share screen
- Easy to Use
- Email Invites do not look great
- Setting up a meeting can be a little confusing at times
Very effective once you get the hang of it
- Single platform.
- Flexibility in audio/video.
- Easy set up of meetings.
- Recurring meetings.
- Use of host passwords.
- Calendar integration.
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.
The basic plan of Zoom has meeting limitations up to 40 minutes hence users need to upgrade their account for extended meetings.
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)
- High-quality sound and video.
- Great mobile app for dialing in for video and or audio calls as needed.
- Chat feature for larger scale calls to help manage questions and reducing talking over each other.
- Individuals cannot turn on the feature to mute audio or video upon meeting entry, only the meeting organizer can change these settings.
- We have had issues with larger meetings in which some participants are unable to enter, no resolution for the issue right now.
- The sound in rooms can sometimes default to a high volume regardless of the volume left from the previous call.
