Zoom still rocks.

president in Human Resources at Aliter Concept (1-10 employees employees)

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I mostly use Zoom to connect with colleagues around the world through virtual communities. During the pandemic, I also delivered weekly training sessions to my usual face-to-face clients. These days, I alternate between Teams (whew!) and Zoom (Yeah!) to facilitate meetings with my clients. Although Teams has improved, it is still far behind Zoom in terms of ease of use and functionality.

Pros

  • Ease of use.
  • Amazing breakout room.
  • Live surveys.
  • Possibility to integrate other apps like Miro.
  • The recent AI assistant.
  • The ease of recording the sessions.
  • The AI summary.

Cons

  • The new toolbars are not really an improvement over the old ones. Takes time getting used to ..should be in alphabetical order.
  • The chat from breakout rooms should be available separately.
  • it would be nice to be able to record the breakout room.
  • And have separate summaries.
  • Automatic sound from video.

Return on Investment

  • Zoom saved my business during the pandemics.
  • Zoom's functionality was far ahead of anything available in the early days of the pandemic.
  • In the last few months, the annual subscription has not appropriate for my use, so I might cancel it because I rarely use the extended session feature anymore.
  • I wish there were a one-shot option to purchase a single 2-hour session with all the full features (AI, recording, etc.) instead of an annual subscription.
