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

"Our webinar program was floundering, but after I started working with ReadyTalk, we have been able to increase the number of webinars, these webinars have successively attracted higher quality presenters and have become a real marketing tool for our association."
"Customer Service: Excellent. Technical Support: Also excellent."
"We have recovered the 6 to 8 (agonizing) hours a month we used to spend with another platform's tech support."
"ReadyTalk is a very user friendly tool."
"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."
"Chairperson controls are pretty user-friendly."
"ReadyTalk is a great tool to bring large groups together to train or update pertinent information."
"They have a great deployment team."
"Zoom is the priority because other applications for communication and meetings have tricky and not user-friendly interfaces."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to connect to and conduct meetings."
"The screen sharing capability is useful for teaching."
"I like Zoom's breakout session feature."
"Zoom has good integration and allows users to adjust the video image, other solutions I have used do not have this feature."
"The performance is good."
"I'm using it only for meetings, and it is good for me. It provides options for remote control and screen sharing."
"Another advantage of Zoom is that it is easier to link a person that is not a Zoom user than it is with WebEx."
 

Cons

"Compared to other webinar platforms, ReadyTalk's pricing is a bit high."
"Prices can always be dropped but overall these rates are competitive with other teleconferencing systems."
"I wish there wasn't the "arbitrary" 150 people cutoff."
"Add animation capabilities!"
"We'd like the joining process for presenters to be more seamless (and they are working on that)."
"I would love to see a lobby that attendees can wait in prior to starting the conference."
"A few minor issues along the way."
"You have to download a spreadsheet three times post-meeting if you want surveys, registration, attendance. Kind of tedious."
"Nothing is 100% perfect. If I appreciate a product, I typically rate it eight or nine out of ten."
"Recently, most of the people in my organization have not been able to dial in using the telephone number and have been required to join meetings using their devices."
"They need to improve the background feature, to be able to set a background without interfering with the current background."
"Zoom lacks dashboards, more could be included."
"There were some security issues early on, however, they have fixed the problem, and now it is fine."
"It is difficult to see and control whether you're muted or not, so the interface should be improved."
"When anyone installs Zoom for organizational purposes, then it's fine because all the safety and protection is taken care of by the organization. However, when it's done on a personal basis the terms and conditions, you are not secure."
"There were several instances where we couldn't connect into a meeting just on video and then couldn't even dial-in."
