Steve Abshire - PeerSpot reviewer
Information Systems Specialist III at a university with 10,001+ employees
It features low latency, which is crucial because everybody is using VPN to connect to their PCs at work.
Using GoToMeeting in a meeting-sized conference room is kind of a letdown. The camera is supposed to track the speaker and focus on that person so that they can be on the screen. That feature rarely worked. We tested it thoroughly, so maybe it was an issue with the size of the conference room. It may not be suitable for large conference rooms.

Unified communication has transformed our collaboration and consistently boosts project delivery
The best features Zoom Workplace Business offers include screen sharing, clear video and audio, online meetings, large-scale events, call management, mobile apps, unified communication platform, and collaboration. The feature I find myself using the most is an AI-powered collaboration platform that is used to streamline communication, increase employee engagement, optimize in-person time, and improve productivity. The screen sharing is very effective and a helpful tool where we are able to screen share with our colleagues and discuss different tasks and project management ideas. Collaboration has become very efficient, and remote working has also become efficient and prevalent in my organization. We have been able to save a lot of time using Zoom Workplace Business. It has been a game-changer. Zoom Workplace Business elevates the experience with Zoom AI Companion included at no additional cost. It is designed to help employees be more productive, collaborate better, enhance their skills, and unlock time savings.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"GoToMeeting is a nice program and they have a lot of features."
"It can provide good communication with external partners."
"GoToMeeting took a very short time to install and it worked without a hitch."
"It works, it's reliable."
"It's easy to set up."
"The solution worked well specifically for audio meetings."
"We don't have any link issues whether you use it to browser, or use it as a client. It worked perfectly fine for us."
"We can record meetings and share the screen with participants."
"I've tried about five other solutions, and Zoom, by far, has been the most stable and reliable."
"There is no installation, you can give someone a link to the chat and they can access the chat through the link."
"The most valuable feature of Zoom is having the ability to be able to share your screen and chat whilst you're online."
"One of the most valuable features is the user interface, and with every new update, they introduce new useful features."
"It's not a big deal to set up a meeting."
"The most valuable feature is the sharing capabilities. Whether it's a simple screen for PowerPoint or sharing videos, it works really well."
"With the support of the Zoom software, we had an increase in our ROI of 60%."
"Screen sharing is valuable. It is very easy to install, and there are 45 minutes free of charge."
 

Cons

"The tool needs to have a virtual room where users can pass through. It also needs to integrate a real-time translator."
"Lacks ease of connectivity, calendar integrations, and third-party app integrations."
"Using GoToMeeting in a meeting-sized conference room is kind of a letdown. The camera is supposed to track the speaker and focus on that person so that they can be on the screen. That feature rarely worked. We tested it thoroughly, so maybe it was an issue with the size of the conference room. It may not be suitable for large conference rooms."
"The enrolment for a non-IT user should be easier. It should be simplified for non-IT users."
"GoToMeeting breaks down a lot. We're not sure if it's breaking down, but we start getting very erratic community channels. I don't know if it's because of GoToMeeting or if we're not buying enough bandwidth. Maybe it is just the infrastructure that it's running on. I'm not quite sure."
"In addition to the features it already has, I think GoToMeeting should also have additional features that are not present at the moment."
"It is not so stable."
"The sound quality is good but the video quality needs improvement."
"Sometimes the free version is limited to forty-five minutes. For students, it would be beneficial to have access through the university for longer meetings."
"In the past, there were some sound connectivity issues where I would get sound and no picture, and then picture and no sound."
"There are some features that are lacking."
"The recording capabilities may not be as good as WebEx, however, I can't be sure about that just yet."
"Zoom could improve its security. I heard they had a breach the last time."
"It takes time to acclimate end users to the product."
"In general, the price could be a little cheaper."
"Zoom could improve by having more dashboards."

LucidChart vs LucidSpark for brainstorming sessions over Zoom
Hi @Krista Thompson ​ - Yes, LucidSpark is a much more nimble and, in some ways, user-friendly tool than LucidChart. LucidSpark is designed to do a better job managing multiple users participating ...
