Overall Satisfaction with Zoom
The program is used daily by the studio for communication between employees working remotely or with clients. It is used to organize private online meetings to discuss short-term tasks or large conferences while involving employees and clients in the creative process.
- It's a simple, easy meeting setup application.
- A basic plan (free) has almost everything for personal usage, and for business, there are several advanced plans.
- Good connections even from mobile carriers.
- Has a nice chat with GIFs.
- There is a weak audio/image control in it. It had to mute the audio and to make the video brighter.
- Not excellent sound filtration. Sometimes the participants could hear themselves and it was confusing.
- Need to install the app.
- Only the host could record sound, but it could be hard to start conference because the host could have hardware issues, and the conference is postponed to change host.
- It gives efficiency between team members, managers and clients.
- Speed up collaborations.
- Helps schedule meetings.
We are considering using Zoom Rooms but right now it seems complicated to run all these devices at once without issues. We need some time.
- Google Hangouts and Skype
The app lacks small pleasant utilities, such as adjusting the video or muting the sound, more convenient controls. All these things are in Google Hangouts and Skype. Nevertheless, Zoom provides a sufficient set of communication tools, which makes it attractive for our studio and makes us independent.
