Babu A
Lead software developer
4.0

Babu: So myself, Babu, and I'm the leading software development team on a major platform in the company called British Car Auctions. We are based out of UK and Europe. I would rate not five, but just four for Google Meets because we mostly use Teams and Slack for the other purposes. We use Slack and Teams predominantly, but Google Meets is one of the key thing when we jump between the teams. I mean, for example, we are part of engineering team when we want to communicate with the business team or some other team internally communicating. Most of the leadership team, they prefer to use Google Meets, that's what we realized. But predominantly in the engineering team, we are using Teams and Slack. Microsoft Teams and Slack. It's not about any particular reason, but it's just the leadership team, they stick with the Google Meets instead. They don't want to use Microsoft Teams and Slack chat in the group. Whenever they want to communicate within other engineering teams or security teams, they usually schedule a meeting with Google Meets. We work from home, but literally leadership team, can join from anywhere. For security and other purposes, sometimes Microsoft Teams and Slack won't be available in public network with all the restrictions. That's the reason they go for. But we are pretty much okay with whatever we want to present all those things. It's the business leadership team's decision if they want to go for Google Meets. It's not a big deal because I believe it's not a basic setup which is needed for Slack and Teams organization and you need to give specific access through an EAD or support team. It'll be just like if you have a Google ID, it'll be more like accessing the Google Meets and all those things. But the thing is, if you want to use your official email ID, you need to create an email ID for your personal account, you can use it, but it's just advisable to use a company account. You need to map it. For example, my email ID would be a company email ID, then I need to map it to the Gmail one so that I can use the Google Meet. That's the one extra bit of process if you don't want to use the personal Gmail ID. I would say in rating purposes, I would not go for 10, but somewhere around eight. It's just they can use it like a backup or if they have any restricted content or want to use. Say they have some issues with Google Meet because they can't directly join into that Google Meet if they want to share any. Because it's about data governance, how data will be shared in this public portal. Because if you have Microsoft Teams and Slack, it'll be an enterprise account dedicated to your organization. But for Google Meet, I would say it'll be more of a general discussions or a business meeting. All those things. It'll be very handy instead of Microsoft Teams. So it'll be more of business discussions and general thoughts or any white board meetings. We can organize it in Google Meet so that anyone, like people joining from traveling can use it.
