“Best video conference app that there is!”

Audrey M.
8/10/20

I use zoom a lot, with online classes and summer camp. It's about as good as any online video conferencing app can get. It's perfect- what more could you want? And all the extra parts- touch up your appearance, virtual background, turn upside down, it's amazing! It hardly ever glitches too. If you tried google meet or hangouts, you would see that zoom is the best option. You don't even have to pay! It's amazing. Must use!

“Zoom is a disaster”

Karen O.
6/29/23

Zoom intersects our lives whether we want it to or not, so when it malfunctions and you do not pay for a Zoom account, you are screwed. My computer microphone is perfectly fine but it does not work in Zoom so any meetings or classes that are on Zoom, that I attend on my computer are defective experiences and they give no support. For people on the Zoom community who lost their mic during a job interview, as some have noted, this is truly a horrible bind. You can't reach them but they are in your face, in your life.

Has excellent stability, accessibility, powerful screen-sharing tools, pizarras, diapositives, compatibility with virtual cameras, and uses additional software to enhance the user experience.
Due to online groups, conferences, classes, and even family reunions, it is the most crucial and necessary tool of this era. The world has changed, and Zoom Meetings helped us adjust to these new cMBIO.

Tip for consumers:
Zoom is fantastic overall!

Tip for consumers:
Zoom is a platform most people online who attend meetings or classes must deal with at some point. Zoom is embedded into society but when they malfunction, you have no options. I took my laptop to a major national computer retailer that services all their products if one has a service contract, which I do have. There is nothing wrong with the mic on my laptop. They uninstalled and reinstalled Zoom and that did not help. I cannot be heard when participating in Zoomed classes or meetings

What I like most about using Zoom is its high-quality audio and video. Even with poor internet connectivity, Zoom can adjust the quality to ensure that you get the best possible experience. This is especially important for remote meetings where communication is critical, and poor audio or video quality can make it difficult to communicate effectively.

Zoom charged me extra on my subscription. I've raised ticket# ******* and now ticket #*******. I haven't yet heard back from zoom despite me continuously trying to get in touch with them for the past 1 week.

I used it several times during the pandemic and I'm very likely to use it again. No hick-ups, everything worked just fine. It did take me a moment to figure out how to schedule a meeting as I had to explain it to someone else in detail. But to be honest, it's easy, just dive in and you will be ok.

Tip for consumers:
Just dive in, you will be ok.

Zoom lets me communicate with my parents on the easy way. Great audio and video quality, very very much better than the other option that I can't mention here...

Most people love Zoom until they use it professionally. It's chockablock FULL of glitches. One would think that as well as they've done recently, they would invest some money in fixing the problems and hiring people to offer better customer support.

I actually asked for a demo SIX TIMES and never got an answer. I'll continue to use Zoom in the hopes they'll finally get their act together.

Pretty useful for business and classes too, easy to use and very convenient to use in general. Most people prefer this platform as for using it as a mandatory way of teaching and communication for students and and other business virtual meetings.

I did not realize that purchases auto subscribed users. I learned this ONLY 3 DAYS after the unauthorized "subscription" period started.
Because of the error message on my zoom account "Your payment card on file has expired. Please update your payment method or you will lose access to your paid features in the future" - I assumed that not providing my updated card would therefore cancel my unbeknownst/unauthorized "subscription".
I then learned that Zoom uses a 3rd party to update account users credit card information which is unauthorized and I believe to be a breach of privacy and information.
It seems that all zoom cares about is getting as much money as possible and not the customers needs or happiness.
I created a ticket with zoom to get my account sorted (now on week 3) and Zoom billing department has made 4 attempts to charge my purchase card for a "subscription" I did know about or agree to for a plan that was underutilized and an amount I vehemently do not approve.

Tip for consumers:
Whatever plan you sign up for, you need to note that you will be auto-subscribed and even though you may be a minute after the subscription renewal date, zoom will make every attempt to get your money and not work with or help the customer.

I accidentally deleted my friend because I was messing around with participants and it won't let me message him now. IDK what happened. I need help. Zoom was great before this, though.

Try another platform quality of streaming has been down graded and if you purchase an additional option such as ability to host a webinar for more than 100 people you are stuck being billed for a year. Avoid

Zoom is the best option out there to use for video meetings or call. They let you use zoom for free for 45 minutes long. Picture and audio quality is always good if only you have stable internet connection.

Zoom's vision for their product is innovative. We are always looking for ways to drive innovation at our company. The product and features are much more suitable for business dealing in virtual communications/meetings as well as adopting video into their processes. We don't encounter issues with the tool like we have with previous web meeting tools. Zoom is reliable, versatile and easy-to-use for virtual communications across the globe. Zoom is looking to the future of engagement and collaboration. Virtual Backgrounds is just one of the many cool features that Zoom offers to its users.

With as much money as Zoom has made as a result of the pandemic (over 4 billion dollars), you would think they could spare a few dollars to hire people for live chat customer service if not a call center. It's a telling sign that they don't make how to contact support clear on their homepage, but the sales department is front and center. If you click on support, you are taken to a virtual assistant that would be fired if it were a real person! It gives you so many answers to the simplest question that it's like no answer at all. This is the worst form of customer no service that I've ever encountered, and this is not a free account. More importantly, the security should be renamed insecurity. It's so bad that we now have a name for it: Zoom bombing. Not only have I experienced Zoom bombing, but even with the password protection, I receive multiple emails stating fake attendees are waiting days in advance of the meeting. Who signs on for a meeting a week in advance? Helloooooooo! I know there's a pandemic, but we do have other things to entertain ourselves besides waiting for a meeting to start! My advice if you must use Zoom: Always create a password and always create a waiting room. Do not admit anyone named Phineas T. Fobalob. LOL. Use any other platform if you can. Me, I'm stuck because my job pays for it.

The best thing about zoom i found is the user interface. Easy to invite people via link and along with one click login it is quite good application for huge virtual meetings. Only con i came across is the glitchy video time to time when you are sharing screen while meeting. Otherwise the application is worth the money.
