Easy to use for our clients and was easy to roll out
I would rate it a nine out of ten. It was really easy to roll it out to our users to implement it to an API. It was very seamless. I don't see any lack of features we need. For the purpose of connecting the client and agent, it works very well. I would like the ability to download or retrieve the call history through APIs. There is no way to download the recordings from the meetings because you can record the meeting. The only way to get the recording from the platform is to log in to my strategic portal and download it manually. There is no way to retrieve the link for downloading the recording through API. I would like to see that in the next release.

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

"It was really easy to roll it out to our users to implement it to an API."
"The pros are that it's like a global leader. It has a translation project, which is very interesting and important for our users because the minority of them are not able to read and speak in English."
"I like the filters and background filters that I can incorporate; I find they work better than competitors like Google Meet or Microsoft Teams."
"I've never had to use tech support for it. It just works."
"With the inception of Zoom, we are able to collaborate anytime, anywhere, any day."
"Zoom is interoperable and user-friendly."
"The interface makes it simple to use."
"It saves us so much time not having to travel great distances."
"The installation was easy."
"The most valuable features are the quality, the number of people that you can have in a meeting, and the interface."
 

Cons

"We have had some problems with stability. A week ago, we had outaging but it has stablized."
"The price of Zoom is a bit expensive."
"They need to improve the background feature, to be able to set a background without interfering with the current background."
"In the past, there were some sound connectivity issues where I would get sound and no picture, and then picture and no sound."
"The solution is not very useful for chat and lacks highlighting functionality."
"The next version should include features like conflict resolution and Version Control."
"Although sometimes the latency of the network is high, it was performing well, even when using the video features."
"The technical support is very bad."
"My company uses the Zoom security setting that requires the host to admit users. The host often forgets to do that, so you sometimes have a lot of people sitting out there. It would be nice if Zoom made it obvious that somebody is in the waiting room."
