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

"We host 4 webinars a month using Share tools and have reached on some occasions more than 500 participants just by one invitation being shared through social media."
"Chairperson controls are pretty user-friendly."
"They have a great deployment team."
"Recording live webinars and having our recurring demo webinar scheduled out in advance and all synced to Marketo has been indispensable."
"ReadyTalk helped my organization deliver high-quality training webinars to small business owners around the country."
"Customer Service: Excellent. Have been able to help me determine when to use the operator assisted service and even demo-ed this experience for me in order to make more informed decision."
"ReadyTalk is a great tool to bring large groups together to train or update pertinent information."
"I utilize ReadyTalk to train roughly 300 people monthly, my colleagues use it to host staff meetings, to supplement coursework from our online university, and to deliver organizational content to our constituent base."
"The solution is easy to set up."
"The most valuable features of Zoom are the quality of the video is better than other solutions and they have a recording option that is useful."
"The video stream is very cool, and it's an efficient solution."
"I've never had to use tech support for it. It just works."
"We use Zoom primarily for virtual meetings and remote assist sessions, where we take over control of somebody's computer."
"The main feature I like with Zoom is that it allows me to do remote control and get access to the system so I have remote hands that I don't have to depend on the customer or the client to do things for me."
"You can have multiple connections so that everybody can interact, you can change your background to any background that you want, it is pretty reliable, and it works on multiple devices including your phone and your computer."
"Zoom is useful for virtual meetings."
 

Cons

"Supporting PPT animations and direct upload of recordings to YouTube would be great."
"I would love to see a lobby that attendees can wait in prior to starting the conference."
"You have to download a spreadsheet three times post-meeting if you want surveys, registration, attendance. Kind of tedious."
"I wish there wasn't the "arbitrary" 150 people cutoff."
"You have to schedule operator-assisted audio events 24 hours in advance, if the turn around time could be quicker - it would help with last minute events."
"Add animation capabilities!"
"The aesthetics are not great."
"One great feature they can add is the ability to use animations within your slides."
"I find while using Zoom sometimes there is a lot of disturbance while on the call. There is a lot of network issues, and sometimes the screen freezes, and you have no way of figuring out what went wrong."
"There were times on the free version where I wasn't done the meeting and it just took me out."
"Zoom could improve by being more user-friendly."
"There were some security issues early on, however, they have fixed the problem, and now it is fine."
"Additional end-user features like polling would be beneficial."
"Having easier access to recorded meetings, being able to download them fast, and playing them back would be helpful."
"I can't speak of any shortcomings. It worked fine."
"The main issue with Zoom is its adoption in the business world compared to platforms like Teams."
