Overall Satisfaction with Zoom
I use Zoom in my solo marketing practice to work with clients remotely, which saves a ton of time for both of us — rather than meeting in person. It's a great way to demo software, explain Google Analytics results, walk through a design, etc. I also plan to use it to run webinars for promotional purposes.
- It takes under a minute to set up a link to email to clients. That's great, especially when you're in the middle of a call and need clients to jump on the computer with you.
- I'm not particularly fond of being on camera, so it's easy to use Zoom without it.
- The free version is pretty robust, but at $15/mo, upgrading isn't a big issue.
- It's a significant part of my marketing stack, and I recommend it all the time.
- This is a rare thing to say, because I'm always evaluating low-cost marketing software, but I haven't found any problems yet. Could be because I haven't moved beyond the Web conferencing features.
- Definitely saves a ton of time.
- Clients love seeing what I'm talking about, rather than me explaining something they can't see or that they find difficult to follow along with on their screens. Sharing is caring!
Haven't tried them out yet.
I've used it when asked to participate in other meetings. The login interface isn't as clean and simple as Zoom. If I remember correctly, the user interface for Zoom is just easier.
