There is a need to make certain payments towards the licensing costs attached to the product and some other tools that are included in the suite offered by Google. Google Hangouts alone as a product is available for free.
I think there is a need for payment for licensing, but as students, we didn't have to pay for it when we were using it. Our professors were the ones paying for it since they needed to record the sessions. I'm not very sure about the subscription model used by our professors, though.
We are a small team and a small organization such as ours just uses the free version of Google, so there's no cost associated with Google Hangouts at the moment.

This time last year I would've said the pricing is fantastic but Google increased their pricing recently and so our costs doubled. I don't think it's as cost-effective as it used to be. I would say it's sort of in the middle as far as cost-effectiveness now. It's the other things that come with Hangout that make it valuable. Part of its value is that it's got a whole suite of tools. I do in fact recommend it to people because of that.

I don't need to buy Google Hangouts separately because it comes free with Google Workspace, and it is also available for my personal Gmail ID.
We access the solution through Google Workspace. It is inexpensive to use. I rate its pricing a five out of ten compared to other brands.
There is licensing required. You can choose whichever plan makes sense for your company. The price is okay. It's not overly expensive.
I'm not sure of the exact licensing costs. I'd rate the affordability eight out of ten in terms of affordability.
I use the free version.

I believe my company has a yearly license for Google Hangouts, but I'm not sure because this is a corporate account, so I don't have the details.
We pay to use the solution via a subscription model. We pay for the solution annually.
The pricing is not too expensive. I pay $6 per user per month for Gmail, Google Drive, and Google Hangouts.
I'm not sure what the licensing costs are.
I don’t deal with licensing. I’m not sure what the costs would be.
