Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The most valuable feature is video conferencing."

More LifeSize Pros →

"When there is a large number of people involved, I can pinpoint a particular person and I can message him in Zoom, rather than messaging everybody involved. I can directly communicate with that person and I find that feature very useful.""The solution is stable and user-friendly.""I'm not a really technologically sophisticated user. From my point of view, if I can use it, it's likely very straightforward.""The initial setup is easy.""The product's initial setup phase was easy.""Zoom has helped me with collaboration and remote working.""It has efficient security features as well.""I have found the product to be scalable."

Cons
"This solution needs better platform integration with third-parties such as Microsoft and Cisco."

More LifeSize Cons →

"Zoom should continue to add new features to the product.""Zoom could be improved by adding more third-party integrations. They should also work on their virtual backgrounds. I think these could be more professional and creative.""Compared to Skype and Teams, Zoom is missing one feature, and that's the ability to call people. In Teams, I can call anyone I want. It's like a telephone. I can do the same on Skype, but I have to send a link in Zoom.""The interface could be more user-friendly.""They need to improve the background feature, to be able to set a background without interfering with the current background.""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. You have to restart the computer all over again, or you lose some of the words that someone was saying during the meeting, such as what the person is trying to say in the midst of that conversation. Additionally, there have been times it has disconnected and was not able to start.""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.""I would like to see an integration with Microsoft."
