Find out in this report how the two Virtual Meetings solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."It is very easy to jump from one communication channel to another one. It is pretty clear and very easy to do. That is the thing that I like the most from Avaya and their suite."
"Interesting collaboration features."
"I like the share information function."
"Google Meet is a clear and simple solution."
"It's very easy to use."
"I think the simplicity of the whole thing is its valuable feature."
"The most valuable features are the chat features and the video conferencing features that enable more than two or three people to be connected at a time."
"The most valuable features of the solution are its ability to allow the sharing of screens and the way it allows a user to take control of another system."
"The ease of navigation is good, as we can easily share data and screens."
"The initial setup is very easy."
"It's good for conferencing with others."
"The installation could be more straightforward. I would like it to work with other meeting software in the next release."
"Increase in participant numbers reduces quality of video and sound."
"There isn't too much information about Avaya solutions and that could be very much improved. If you want some product support, you have to go through a business partner in Latin America and there aren't many partners."
"I would like to have a whiteboard feature, where I can draw a sketch or diagram and show it to the people in the meeting."
"Google Hangouts has breakout rooms now, but not as extensive as Zoom, so that's one area for improvement. I mentioned that I like the Google Hangouts captioning feature, but that could be improved. For example, importing Filipino-English captions here in the Philippines would be great."
"The improvement needs to be done as per customer requirements."
"Collaboration in Google Hangouts has room for improvement compared to Microsoft Teams. On Microsoft Teams, you can share a document directly and work on that document all at once, in real-time, with other team members, which isn't the case with Google Hangouts."
"There is no delete option for messages which could be an added feature in a future release."
"Maybe they should offer more security features."
"Google Hangouts is not good enough to be used in a professional environment or for some official work, especially when compared to a product like Microsoft Teams."
"There is no recording feature in Google Meet. However, Zoom has the recording feature and we use it for any calls that require recording."
