I appreciate the free account option for those not fortunate enough to have a paid account. Once in, it's pretty easy to use & nice support features.
This software does glitch sometimes which sucks in the middle of a lecture when you miss information.
I like Zoom Meetings because of the great user experience. It's easy to navigate, there are always available meeting times, it's super intuitive.
The quality of videos, and microphone, sometimes it gets really bad when you're in a class or you're giving a class because this can distract the student and them could misunderstand the class.
It's easy to use, intuitive, integrates with everything I need, good support teams, plus the Breakout Rooms capability is awesome.
What I dislike is that when you first sign on to a meeting you are not connected to the audio, so if the person on the other end tries to talk to you, you feel awkward and have to explain.
It gets the job done and is the best solution that we have at the time being. However, may the lords help you if you do not have good internet.
I find the updates frustrating sometimes because there is no warning and as a result, I can't get into my meetings.
I like this software because it is secure and allow file transfer while having a fast, good quality meeting.
It is such a steep learning curve, it all looks very confusing and disorganized. I have a hard time figuring out how to navigate it.
If you're apart of the Microsoft ecosystem or thinking of becoming part of it, Microsoft Teams is great. They have multiple third-party integrations, pricing is great, UI/UX is great.
There are actually times, and I hate to admit it, that I get too frustrated trying to use Teams to call other Macs, that I switch over and call them on Zoom instead.
Customization as per requirement. Call quality is good and screen sharing control works like a charm.
Very little to dislike and cannot think of anything that bad i would comment on it. The negative is the shade of purple it uses.
I really like Microsoft Teams. It is a great software and it has been a lifesaver for me. I highly recommend using it.
Sync with desktop prone to errors. The UI for editing in teams is horrible and prone to errors.
Jose: My name is Jose. I'm an inside salesman for a top industrial distributor company for any sort of industrial parts, and I would rate Zoom Workplace five out of five. Besides Zoom Workplace, I don't think I've ever really used any other one. I've used FaceTime, Skype, but doesn't really compare to the capabilities Zoom Workplace has. The reason why we choose to stick with Zoom Workplace, it makes it really easy to do remote work. So just recently, we've implemented remote work and it just makes it really easy to communicate. You can mute people, you can type in the chat. Let's say you're on the go, you don't have to really be on the camera and you can even access it on your phone. So it just makes it really easy to communicate with the team and then just do remote work. I think it's really easy to get started with Zoom Workplace. You don't even really need an account to use it. It makes it easier to be able to log in and start meetings for next time, but if you want to make an account, you can make an account. You could start meetings. You could join meetings just based on a link. Pretty easy. Everything's there. You could just put help or it tells you whatever you need. And then it's just really easy. For anybody that's starting Zoom Workplace, I would recommend making an account with them just because it makes it easier for sometimes when you get sent a meeting and you don't have an account, you have to sign in again and again, or you have to join as a guest. And sometimes people don't know who you are, so they won't admit you into the meeting. If it just says, "Guest," nobody's going to admit somebody that says, "Guest," but if you put your name, make an account, then they know who you are and it makes it easier to access meetings. And then I would also recommend, basically, yeah, just make an account and then start meetings by yourself too. You can start meetings with friends. It doesn't really have to be for work, but with Zoom Workplace, it's great for work.
Rick: My name is Rick. I'm the executive director of Marketing and Technology for Chapel Hill Academy. I give Microsoft Teams a rating of 5 out of 5. Before Microsoft Teams, we didn't really have any sort of management software. We would just do things manually over email using on-device storage and using the phone to call people. We didn't really have an instant chat way to communicate with people instantly, or unified file storage or project management option. We chose Microsoft Teams because of its compatibility with the whole Microsoft ecosystem. We had been using Microsoft tools and apps previously, the Office Suite, OneDrive, or SkyDrive even before that, Outlook, et cetera. So it just seemed nice to have a unified experience and not have too many different systems that ended up being siloed, but something that's a unifying platform. Overall, it was a good experience getting started with Microsoft Teams. I will say as we continue to onboard new staff from time to time, it is a little bit of a learning curve, but Microsoft does provide some phenomenal resources to help get people started through their Microsoft Learn program and also through online videos that guide people to getting familiar with how to use Microsoft Teams. I would recommend for anyone considering Microsoft Teams, first of all, it's great. Definitely do it. But I think the key is just when you get started and onboarding, is to make sure you equip yourself with the proper training and understanding and organization of the platform, and then also carry that on to your team or staff so that everyone has a pleasant experience as they continue to grow and learn how to leverage and maximize teams to be more efficient.
