### "Connecting through Zoom Video Webinar"

September 23, 2021

5.0

Using Zoom Video has been an easy, inexpensive way to remain connected during the pandemic. It has provided a safe environment for training purposes as well as "virtual" visits with our clients.

Pros

Zoom Video Webinar is an inexpensive tool and easy tool to use to connect small to larger audiences and give a personal touch. It allows participants to connect in a safe environment while discussing important information.

Cons

I think Zoom Video has been an amazing tool to use during the pandemic, but could fade away as more "in-person" meetings can take place.

### "Zoom Video Webinar rocks"

July 16, 2022

5.0

Overall its great to go with. One should use it wheather there is a huge audience or small group, it work well. Its superb for distant learning as well. But sometimes you can not check, what the other user is doing at the other end.

Pros

I like the in call sharing feature the most and multi persons can work on board at the same time and can help each other. Especially when you are dealing with students, you can easily point out their mistakes on whiteboard.

Cons

Its really a helping software and user friendly but sometimes when you are working with large audience you can not keep an eye on everyone's camera to keep a check what are they doing.

### "zoom is the best video software for online courses and gatherings"

February 15, 2022

5.0

It has a decent nature of sound and video. The application is not difficult to utilize and get to. It can likewise access on my cell phone. Thusly, you can go to the online course anyplace. The participants are covered up, and there is classification which are going to the occasion. Additionally, the participants has no entrance in sound and video to stay away from interruption. However, they can cooperate utilizing live visit and Q&A.

Pros

Above all else, due to instinctive UI, this stage has become super easy to understand. That is the reason I love the convenience with the Zoom Webinar include. Particularly Video and Audio quality gives me a superior quality inclination since it's completely clear. Simple to change virtual foundations, share the screen for a show, detail report on post-finish Webinar, Q&A visit highlight, Raise hand include, recording screen, bring up and arrangement surveys doubt, make greeting pages, multi-stage support, follow-up messages alongside updates from stage end, permit/prohibit clients to see members, and so forth No compelling reason to stress over the count of participants on the grounds that the actual stage certifications to increase the participant's rundown however much you can. For the most part, in our Townhall online course, our total business unit(more than 300) used to go to Webinar, and we never dealt with any issue. Since Zoom Video Webinar is a coordinated element of the Zoom family along these lines, decisively, I would agree that this stage is pocket-accommodating too; subsequently my general experience is amazing. The coordinator has the adaptability to make surveys during the continuous meeting too which I believe is the interesting element of Zoom Video Webinar and obviously, all related information of runtime-made surveys additionally oversaw pleasantly in the point by point report.

Cons

To be extremely honest, I didn't track down any basic issue accordingly. However, a solitary individual can enroll with various ids, that ought to be confined to just a single time or two times as per my agreement. In any case this application is functioning admirably and full filling every one of my assumptions.

### "Zoom became a Life Style"

May 6, 2022

5.0

Really it was great one and saved our lives through the COVID-19 Crisis. A tool that appeared and became stronger and dominant right after.

Pros

Ease of installation and creatin of the log in credentials. Upgrade applicability to meet the business need. High resolution of shared files, images...etc as well as the high resolution of the camera. One of the most common tools to be used in UAE even for call over the wifi or mobile data ( as most of the communication tools there is disabled). Ability to assign co host(s). Voice is clear. Chatting Pot could enable personal or everyone discussions. Camera to be turned on or off easily. Record the meetings

Cons

Record the meetings done only by the moderators not everyone.

Reason for choosing Zoom Events and Webinars

As it had a good repetition, affordable price related to the features offered. More stable and work on desktop, IOS & Android platform which I use.

### "moamen review"

July 19, 2022

5.0

I have many experiences in this software, and its pros overcame its drawbacks. In general, I did not see any problem with this software other than the problem of the time that I talked about previously. I hope that it will be addressed. Otherwise, the application is very good

Pros

You may include a step that sends the meeting information to your team using a chat tool like Slack to increase the power of this automation. Here at Zapier, we frequently employ this automation, which automatically posts the Zoom link to the appropriate Slack channel whenever a new team meeting on Zoom begins, Zoom enables you to set up recurring meetings for frequent conversations like weekly meetings, monthly check-ins, and other planned sessions. Utilizing this setting has two advantages. First of all, it enables you to establish all of your desired call preferences once and have them remain in effect whenever you meet. The same join URL is used repeatedly by recurring calls, so attendees never receive a new one.A further option called No Fixed Time allows you to utilize the same settings and meeting ID with the same group repeatedly regardless of when you get together if you meet with the same group frequently but not on a regular schedule. Educational organizations that use Zoom like this option.

Cons

One of the things that I do not like is the time, as it is limited, I think, to only forty minutes for each meeting, which compels us to make a new link and wait for the employees to return to the meeting again. So, I ask you, when reading this assessment, to extend the duration of the session

### "My Objective Review Of Zoom Video Webinars"

June 11, 2022

5.0

In conclusion, the Zoom Video Webinars Software is very well above average in impacting my effectiveness and productivities.

Pros

What I like most about the Zoom Video Webinars is easy to pick because of its many valuable useful features. Just to pick one, I will summarily state here that, the ability to remove geographical boundaries in global communication is of awesome value to me.

Cons

The con about the Zoom Video Webinars Software will just be the internet data consumption which can be managed only be muting the video sometimes.

### "Zoom last words"

July 15, 2022

5.0

I have tech experience. Zoom was a walk in the park to learn and a breeze to use. The learning curve is the user interface, small but takes a few sessions to get used to. Make sure you are on Wifi,Read the prompts, and you should be fine

Pros

Zoom is everything you want in online calling, with the added sauce of giving you the ability to land clients in the most professional way that is remotely possible. I hear this app being talked about around the office as much as i hear or own company name. It's not perfect, but no other program has fewer imperfections/ You can 99% of the time count on zoom to give you everything you want in a video call with little to no hiccups

Cons

The 1 thing I think Zoom could do is add a way for users to pay each other. Zoom is an app where many people promote products. It would be nice if after a 2 hour Webinar people could just add their card and pay. It would be a great added feature. Imagine doing a zoom focus group and then being paid right though the APP .

### "Simple review of Zoom"

March 8, 2022

5.0

I am using the Zoom application twice or three time a week. The Company I am collaborating with has its headquarters in Dubai with members spread on around 120 countries around the world. Training conferences are held almost three time a week on Zoom. Apart from the obvious knowledge provided, the application also promotes a sense of belonging among all the members.

Pros

I like the ease of setting up the application. I also like wide variety of the features it offers to the user such as the screen sharing, thé in-program chatting ability which together with the video and audio provides a three ways communications possibility to the host of a meeting and to the paricipants. I like the flexibility that makes it a handy tool On efferent devices: smart phone, tablets and PCs.

Cons

Not much. But I think that on he Audio side, improvements are necessary especially when toggling the sound from one microphone to another.

### "Zoom Video Webinars - The Perfect Low Cost Solution for All Your Virtual Meeting Needs."

June 14, 2022

5.0

Overall I feel satisfied with the features possessed by this Zoom Video Webinars application. Zoom Video Webinars are used within my agency company to hold remote meeting activities with clients for various purposes such as presentations, consultations, conducting reviews, etc. This made remote meetings a breeze, saving me and clients who might spend more time traveling if they had to meet.

Pros

UI : Zoom's user interface is very user friendly and simple. The options are well stacked and enlarged so that people can understand them. Scheduling, sharing, starting meetings is easy even if you're not a programmer. Presentation: By using zoom can easily present a certain screen or document. This is a very useful feature when teaching online or presenting the results of work.

Cons

Limits for BASIC Users: Zoom currently has a limit of 100 participants and a meeting limit of 45 minutes for Basic users, sometimes it makes it difficult because the need for meetings exceeds that time. Cloud Storage For Basic Users : Zoom does not provide any cloud storage for your recordings for Basic Users, I think zoom can do an upgrade.

October 7, 2021

Overall it seems to be a good product but doesn't seem to have a lot of bells and whistles.

Pros

Like the ease of use. Its a very intuitive product. Just point, select and click. It's easy to record training webinars which is what our team uses it for the most.

Cons

We don't know how to edit and/or re-record webinars. We would like to know if this feature exists and how easy it would be to edit our recorded Zoom training sessions.

### "Zoom to your audience anywhere"

January 29, 2022

5.0

Zoom Video Webinars has removed the need to travel to the same location as a presenter. You can still access the same information without any of the travel logistics. Quality of the personal experience may not be as high, but that can be an acceptable tradeoff when the costs for travel are exorbitant.

Pros

Zoom has changed the way our organization conducts conferences and in a way that we will likely keep the ability to provide remote access even after the current conditions are done. From the start, Zoom was easy to set up and use because it was intuitive. Zoom also adapted and quickly added features to improve the user experience as more people used the platform for extended periods of time. Breakout room features also changed over time making them easier to use and the transcript feature is important as both equity and access considerations for our institution.

Cons

Not sure how much of this was Zoom and how much of this was on our end, but occasionally we had connectivity issues with audio, video or both. Sometimes logging out and back in would resolve that. Other times, the solution took more expertise to solve.

I personally had a great experience with it as I've completed some of my classes with the help of it along with my work stuff too. Thus i felt very blessed to have it.

Pros

The Best & Efficient tool to make our conferences and meets so smooth that we don't even feel that it's happening virtually. The quality of Voice, presentation & Video is exceptional, impressive.

Cons

Sometimes when conference/meet is running some attendees can draw anything into screen displayed and it can be irritating for the host and other attendees this feature should also be done limited and accessible only after allowing by host.

### "ZOOM a must use virtual App"

June 28, 2022

5.0

Zoom is perfectly engineered to be affordable and simple to use for all types and levels of businesses, so no one is left out. Everyone has the needed features with an adequate number of hosts with its four plans: Basic, Pro, Business, and Enterprise. Is one of the simplest video conferencing solutions that a company could ever implement, as it is extremely simple to use; simply download, click it, and set it up, and you're ready to go. It works right away, and anyone can easily connect to Zoom and talk to a remote colleague or customer with an intuitive user interface, As a result, I invite you to use this powerful resource tool for all of your remote meetings sessions and share your remarkable experiences.

Pros

Zoom, in contrast to other video conferencing tools, is a cutting-edge, perfect virtual conferencing app for your business, research, and learning webinars. It is tailored to the evolution of your business and enables individuals to meet and collaborate productively while remotely when meeting in-person is not possible, making the meeting more human and essentially building bonds of staying connected. Zoom's simplicity is outstanding, as it provides effortless, simple, easy-to-use, and intuitive communications that are limitless. Zoom is built in such a way that it is easily scalable for small, medium, and large businesses.

Cons

Zoom makes extensive use of CPU resources. When video conferencing, the CPU usage can sometimes reach 100%, this can slow down the computer and affect its overall performance. Also, it's often so stressful that attendees don't know whether or not the connection will work until after the meeting has begun, and with very weak connections, the video and audio lag. Finally, despite its great value of making every meeting session short and concise, I suggest that the 40-minute interval allowed per meeting in the free version be restructured to a single 120-minute interval to ease the issue of rejoining for newbies.

### "Zoom Webinar Remains My # 1 Go To Event Platform "

March 16, 2022

5.0

The software allows me to stay in touch with important people I deal with for business or professional reasons, and to talk about important issues for other reasons. In real-time, I can reach people in different parts of the world without spending money on travel.

Pros

I use this software frequently for my work and personal events and it has been an amazing way to stay connected and keep things moving, especially during the lockdowns. It is very user-friendly, which for me is very important because I am not very tech-savvy. It's easy to brand and manage events; participants can chat and exchange with panelists/hosts, and reports are easily generated.

Cons

The app can be improved by cutting out background noise, and the type of meeting files (photos, audios, videos) hosts want to save should be optional.

### "“zoom: the perfect app for virtual meeting s”"

December 30, 2021

5.0

Zoom could be very truthful and clean to use. Zoom is continuously innovating and including new functions. So do now no longer be amazed in case you open Zoom the next day and there may be a cutting-edge feature! Zoom gives numerous unique alternatives for customers to sign up for a meeting. They can name in to a number, be part of through browser, be part of through cellular app, or be part of through the computer app. Zoom is likewise included with numerous unique apps or merchandise which you are likely the use of on a every day basis. Zoom has numerous unique functions and answers to be able to suit your needs.

Pros

Zoom is absolutely the exceptional assembly software program out there. It's now no longer best due to its functions however additionally for the usability of this device. The consumer interface of Zoom is a chunk conventional at the same time as the competition are the use of a chunk greater contemporary-day approach. But that is wherein matters have come to be interesting. Because of the legacy UI of this device, the customers locate it very clean to get began out with this app. When I first began out the use of Zoom, it took best an hour to get acquainted with all of the functions. Another beneficial characteristic of Zoom is the cappotential to annotate at the display screen. Also, the display screen sharing device is pretty reachable and it has a number of functionalities. Oh, I forgot to inform you approximately the excellent digital backgrounds. Frankly speaking, that is one of the maximum beneficial functions and I can attend any formal assembly even from my storage the use of this characteristic.

Cons

I do not just like the truth that software program wishes to be installed. It does have an internet version, however even then it is much less reliable. It calls for a gaining knowledge of duration to get on the way to use it. If you've go t got a co-host who is not familiar, it will become an embarrassing ride to begin coaching them withinside the center of the presentation. Many times, after I changed into a participant, now no longer a host, I ought to see the hosts suffering with settings and getting matters to work. Some hosts do not even realize the way to mute members so it receives very distracting. It frequently system defects because of both the net connection or a few different reason, however I actually have a completely rapid net velocity that does not gift me any troubles in different tools. Some matters approximately the device are not intuitive, and that they have not constant them or modified them at all, in all this time, and I'd imagine, a large quantity of feedback. Since it is specifically software program-based, humans with Windows 10 S will now no longer be capable of use it, and you would should educate members the way to "Join from browser". If it simply you, one-on-one it is no massive deal, however whilst there are extra members, every having their personal troubles, then you have got a problem.

Pros

Accessibility to control the participants, chat feature, control over video or audio, screen sharing are the best tools ever.

### "The Future of Online Meetings"

August 1, 2022

5.0

Since the entire educational system moved to an online platform when lock down began, I have solely been using these online meeting sites. Despite using numerous other platforms, I encountered the same problems—high internet usage, organising online meetings, recording webinars, and monitoring participant attendance. However, most of my issues were resolved after I switched to zoom. Zoom is a great option for folks who aren't tech-savvy but still need to take online classes, and it's a lot easier to use than other options. Overall, I had a wonderful experience with Zoom, and I want to continue using the service.

Pros

The attendees can easily access the meeting with the Zoom app. The instructor only provides the students with a link to the scheduled Zoom session so they can attend. This is practical for both educators and students. Zoom offers support for a sizable audience. Up to 10,000 students may participate in meetings during a zoom session. This can help students learn effective communication skills and can be quite useful for professors who teach collective sections. Zoom offers a 40-minute free service that is sufficient for an online learning session, unlike the majority of apps that need purchasing various packages to have full access. If not, you can sign up again using the same link and continue with the unfinished topics. This can significantly reduce costs for both the teachers and the pupils. Zoom offers shared whiteboard spaces to its customers. There are some concepts that are difficult to express verbally and must instead be illustrated with written answers or illustrations. Therefore, whiteboard facilities can be highly useful for teachers and improve student learning. Utilizing the Zoom app is quite easy. Although it may take some time for some teachers and students to get used to new technologies, the Zoom platform is relatively simple to use. Both the host and the guests have it made easy. This allows for significant time savings, efficient learning, and early topic completion.

Cons

You can't really create that classroom atmosphere while using Zoom to instruct young children in the primary grades, which is one of its main drawbacks. Although the program includes several elements that essentially mimic face-to-face classroom interaction, it is missing key capabilities that can be used to create the optimal learning environment. Zoom uses a lot of your system resources, whether you're using a Mac or a Windows computer. Your video and audio processing is handled with a very high CPU percentage. Additionally, some users have claimed that it uses up a significant amount of their Random-Access Memory (RAM), causing their computers to overheat. Zoom's software version contains various capabilities that the mobile version does not have, despite some similarities between the two. More than the mobile app, the desktop app gives you access to the full set of host controls. For instance, the "breakout rooms" functionality is only available on the desktop app (Windows and Mac OS). This is a key drawback of Zoom because not everyone can access a laptop. Even if you own a laptop, using the mobile app to teach when away from home is ineffective. Teaching with your smartphone might be uncomfortable and less productive without features like establishing breakout rooms, creating and modifying polls, complete control of participants, pausing a shared screen, and editing delivered messages on the mobile app. Not having Access to Slides in Breakout Sessions.

### "Would highly recommend for any video call use"

March 14, 2022

4.0

I absolutely love this software. I use it every week. It's great for teachers to teach classrooms, it's great to host meetings virtually in the workplace, and it's also great for personal use to get in touch with family and friends in a time like the pandemic, where we aren't allowed to meet in person as often.

Pros

I love almost everything about this software. It very rarely lags, I love the screen sharing options (I use it a lot to share presentations with clients, colleagues, and students). I also really like the live chat feature which allows participants to communicate thoughts and pose questions without interrupting the speaker. That feature is really great for bigger seminars with a larger amount of participants. I also like the fact that participants can privately chat amongst each other as well as the fact that the Zoom meeting host can also privately chat with participants. Lastly, I really like the "breakout rooms" feature. It's really great for spreading participants out into groups (which is something that is hard to do virtually).

Cons

There are very few things that I dislike about this software. The only thing that comes to mind is probably the "customizable branding feature". I had no idea this feature existed and I'm not even sure what it does. However, it does seem very intriguing. And just by the name, it sounds like a good feature that can be used to promote a company (which is something that I value a lot and am in need of), so I would have liked to see a little more effort to promote and explain this feature.

### "Zoom meeting helps solve daily connectivity in remote working. "

April 7, 2022

5.0

We have been using Zoom Meetings for our official meetings where multiple vendors participate. Overall I prefer zoom call over others. Zoom has multiple features which honestly we haven't tried to full extent. I have come across few pros and cons which i would like to list in the next sections.

Pros

Pros. 1. Easy to Connect - Just a click on the Zoom app and the meeting is connected with the audio settings predefined. 2. Full Screen view gives me insights on the screen shared. Accessing the screen size is not much difficult. 3. List of participants can be seen in separate window so it does not affect my screen view. 4. Chats are also available in separate window. 5. Screen access can be provided for the other participants. 6. The meeting is totally controlled by the host like, screen share, Lock the meeting, Allow Waiting room, Participants able to chat, unmute etc. 7. Screen share has multiple options like the entire screen can be shared, or the particular window to be focused on, etc. Options like whiteboard are also there. There is an advanced option to share portion of the screen, share only the computer audio and the second camera portion which is outstanding compared to other meeting providers. Also files can be shared from zoom meeting. 8. Sharing video has multiple options like having an image in the background to avoid household items displayed in the background.

Cons

Cons: 1. The main concern we face is, the meeting can be started only by the host. If in case the host is unavailable due to some critical situation, other people should wait till the host arrives. 2. Since host controls everything like screen sharing, allowing participants to chat or not etc, it sometimes becomes an hindrance during the ongoing call. Every time people has to check with the host whether the screen sharing is enabled or not. 3. Meetings are timed. so if there needs 10 more minutes to be extended again host has to intervene and make changes. 4. Could not directly create a google calendar invite with zoom. 5. No of participants are restricted. Sometimes when the participants are more than 500, people are not able to join the meeting. Again settings to be changed.

### "The most popular choice for a reason"

August 5, 2022

5.0

It's a useful software for chatting casually and a crucial tool for anyone running their business online. The affordability and options that come with Zoom make it a first choice!

Pros

I like that Zoom is easy to figure out. You can start a meeting and begin recording immediately! It also boasts a number of user-to-user sharing methods via screen sharing, live chat, and file sharing.

Cons

I do feel there is a bit of a lag between the time one person speaks and the time the person on the other side of the video conference hears what they say. The live and replay video quality is also not pretty. Recorded videos often come out low-quality.

### "ZOOM: Best Platform for online meetings and Webinars"

April 29, 2022

4.0

When lock down started the whole education system shifted towards online platform so from that time only I started using these online Meeting platforms . I had used many other platforms but I faced more or less same issues and I could not find any solutions for them like high internet consumption , scheduling the meetings,recording the webinars, maintaining attendance of participants. But After switching to zoom most of my problems were Solved . I will recommend zoom especially to those techers who are not very well aware of technology and have to take online classes that they can definitely use Zoom it is really easy and convenient to use.Overall i had a really nice journey with zoom which I am still continuing.

Pros

I as a student and a private tutor regularly use zoom for attending and conducting online meetings and webinars. My experience of using zoom has beenreally amazing as it meet most of my requirements. It is very easy to make your account on zoom , schedule your meetings and the most important property that zoom provides is that it consumes less data in comparison to the other online platform available for conducting online meetings. Some of the features that zoom provided me which was not present on previous platforms that I used; it gives you full record of the participants that were present in the meeting ,it notifies you when any participant join or leave the meeting. There can be multiple host for a single Webinar which makes it very easier for the host to conduct the meeting smoothly as there are other host which are handling entry and other queries. One of the most important feature that zoom allows is that you can record the meeting so that if any participant missed some part of the webinar due to bad internet connection you can provide them the recording link and they can watch and learn the part they missed during the webinar.

Cons

Though my experience of using zoom was good but I faced problem when I use zoom app on my mobile it takes really good amount of space and take time to open if you are using your mobile to join any meeting. If You want to host a meeting using your mobile phone that is not a very good option you will face huge amount of issues while doing so. Even if you try to share your mobile screen you will face voice disruption even if you are having good internet connection. I even had problems with customer service that Zoom provides; It's take time to understand your actually problem.

My overall experience in Zoom Video Webinars is great and I'd highly recommend this. This is a good platform to use especially if you want to organize or join an interactive webinars.

Pros

What I like about Zoom is that it gives a collaborative and engaging experience to every participants in a particular webinar. The Zoom tools as well as buttons are also easy to navigate.

Cons

Zoom should provide more interactive games/activities with a less complex instructions especially for our young learners who are using Zoom.
