Overall Satisfaction with Zoom Workplace

Zoom Workplace has been critical in allowing us to coordinate and effectively meet online as a geographically dispersed organisation with the appropriate administration tools to help our teams to be able to reallocate or modify meetings when needed. Overall its been a great tool and the recording, streaming and AI functionality have all enhanced an already solid product.

Pros

  • Global Administration (Admin Tools)
  • Video Recording
  • Live streaming

Cons

  • Live Q&A Functionality
  • Voting Functionality
  • Interactions (popups) - Docs, Reference material, Websites etc
  • Allowed us to provide a solution for Online Training
  • Allowed us to provide a solution for Townhalls
  • Allowed us to provide a solution for Digital AGM and other governance meetings
Zoom is much better for the bigger events and training sessions along with townhalls etc we actually use meet for our internal meetings and general use because Zoom was not as good for that purpose however its been irreplaceable in that area mainly due to the Pigeonhole Live app if this was also on meet Zoom may make less sense as i cant do the Live Q&A and voting functions that we leverage and we get meet as part of our overall gsuite

Great for larger town hall style meeting. Workshops, Training sessions and those more larger group sessions. however not as good for the quick 1v1 catchups or small group meeting due to not having an accompany chat ecosystem think Microsoft Teams and google workspace and i dont think it should these products really struggle in that larger area allowing with the additional features Zoom to become very good in the townhall mircoconference training edu space
