Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We worked with a team in New York, Boston, Paris and Santiago. Zoom is an essential tool that allows to work everyday as if we were all in the same office space.

The speed and versatility is unique and also the data usage, so there is no real competitor right now.

Pros and Cons

Screen share
Multiple participants
Data usage

Video memory usage
Iphone application doesn’t allow to talk like in a “phone”
Sending files through the software is complicated

Return on Investment

Reduce costs in international calls
Reduce costs in data usage
Allow to have business presentations with good quality from different countries

Zoom Rooms

Is good to have a room that ia always available

Alternatives Considered

Doesn’t require additional plugins in each different navigator. Don’t need to have a tedious sign up process and the data usage / quality is better that all the competition

Other Software Used

Skype, Google Hangouts

Likelihood to Recommend

If you are managing teams that are geographically separated this is the best tool ever. But for a one to one call in the same city ia better to have a phone call
