Overall Satisfaction with Google Meet

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.

Pros

  • Meeting Scheduling
  • Timely reminders
  • FInding Timing slot between meeting stakeholders
  • Advanced Screen sharing options
  • Blurring backgrounds
  • Adjusting auto focus

Cons

  • Emoticons
  • Real time screen usage for marking
  • Poll features on chat
  • Chat specific enabling options
  • easy meeting schedules
  • whiteboards are useless
  • meetings cant be recorded hence external integration is required
  • Zoom
Zoom can be defined as a much easier , advanced and accessible version of the Google meet with multiple features such as selective chat enable , polls , emoticons , real time liveboard and calendly integration as well

Yes

Would you buy Google Meet again?

For an internal more confidential meeting , Google meet is the best place as it offers a sense of confidentiality and the secured number of users who can actually access the meeting whereas a more interactive digital workshop type session is where google meet is the least prefered option.

This app is still having a lot of redundant features as compared to other industry apps such as Zoom and Webex which offers much more on the functionality side along with the option to have greater user access control to the admin/host of the meetings. A sense of interaction is always found to be missing in Google meet which can be easily adopted in the Zoom
