We were using Zoom Workplace during pandemic and it is useful by providing us ability to work remotely, improving communication, and supporting in setting up a virtual meeting. It includes features such as video conferencing, screen sharing , communication with clients and interdepartmental activities.
It solves problems like business travel expenses, working with teams from various countries or occupied remote workers which makes it useful not only for the internal communication but also for the external one.
  • Communication
  • Reduce Travel
  • Screen Sharing
  • Training
  • Interviews
  • Room creation for separate communication
As I already mentioned Zoom Workplace is well-suited for Remote team collaboration, Client meetings, Training sessions, Global communication due to its video conferencing, Screen sharing, Breakout room features. It's ideal for hybrid work environments and virtual events. However, it has some limitations like managing large Q&A sessions, or integrating with certain task management platforms. Although, I am not a tech guy but my friends in tech says, Zoom Workplace is good with integration.

We use it mainly as our internal communication system. We have just started implementing the shared spaces for our different locations. One issue we are currently running into is that you can't rename the "general" channels. This causes some confusion for those who apart of more than one shared space. I would also like to be able to delete private chats with people who have been deleted. I have create a file for "trash" but deleting them would be much better. The scheduler tab for those who have the license is great and I love the calendar integration. I wish the email UI was a little more aesthetically pleasing.
  • Integration to google chrome
  • customizability of desktop client
  • It looks good - which is much more important that some would think
I think Zoom is a great platform for people who are looking to combine all of their services into one platform. This is originally why we moved over. We were paying for a phone system, Slack, scheduling system, and zoom for meetings. Adopting workspace we were able to condense all of those services into one.

Great!

To host affiliate meetings. The problem it addresses is that the members are not always able to travel to in person meetings. We host 24 affiliate meetings monthly with attendance ranging from 30-500 attendees. We also host monthly mentor meetings with 500-700 attendees every single month.
  • The overall look
  • The Zoom Polls
  • Breakout Rooms
i would recommend Zoom for impromptu meetings when people aren't in the same place or when you work from home. Not appropriate for when we are all in the office.

To host external meetings with teams, officials, and other stakeholders outside our organization. We also use Zoom to connect guests that are off-site when we have in person board meetings. We schedule these calls in advance and utilize zoom settings to our benefit based on what the format of the call is.
  • Screenshare
  • Breakout rooms
  • Invite Links
Using it with external stakeholders is key to success. The interface is pretty easy to use even for people outside of the organization, which is a plus when juggling multiple groups being invited to a call.

We use it for outside and inside meetings. Makes work from home possible. Zoom Workplace allows us the flexibility to choose where our participants meet. We have several remote offices so Zoom Workplace is a good product for our ongoing usages. We are moving to M365 but we plan to continue using Zoom Workplace.
  • Easy to join meeting
  • User friendly
  • Network friendly
  • Clear Video and Audio
The updating of the product is an issue. Once that gets resolved, I would think this will be a really great product. Zoom is doing an ok job of staying abreast of new technologies so that is good, sometimes I think they could do more (the way Teams is always improving.) Bringing Chat back into Zoom Workplace will be good too.

Excellent for streamlining communication.

We use it for all internal and external video calls and the Team Chat feature for all internal chat communication. Some key users have used Zoom Whiteboard for brainstorming during video calls. Before moving to Zoom, we had at least four different products covering one or more of those functions. Now, moving to Zoom, we've drastically simplified internal communication.
  • It is easy to log in to Zoom video calls in various ways (phone, computer, audio, internal or external).
  • Organization of Team Chats, with Channels and personal chats, is easy to find, and the threaded chats also help.
  • Many, many settings for our org account.
It is well suited for hybrid or all-virtual teams, especially for teams with many communication apps and a desire for streamlining. It is also good for teams with both PCs and Macs and for users who want a simple interface. However, it is less ideal if teams are already committed to a different video and/or chat app.

Zoom has brought together our teams in a greater collaborative way than previous tools. The ease of interacting in in one platform for phone, chat, video, groups, etc., plus the added benefit of file sharing and AI capabilities, make this an easy decision. We have been on the platform for many years after switching from other VOIP providers at the time. Continuous product improvements and updates.
  • Meetings - inhouse and external.
  • Group chats.
  • Love the screen grab feature for sharing a snippet in chat.
We have a fully remote workforce operating in a wide range of locations. The simplicity of the plans removes complications around budgets and costs. We find the tool much more useful than MS Teams.

We use Zoom for our phone system. It sends us emails when we get voicemails from clients, which helps us read what the client is saying without having to listen out loud.
  • Emailing us voicemails.
  • Tracking call history.
  • Interpreting voicemails to words.
We only use Zoom for clients to call in. It is nice that it translates voicemail to emails in text form so we can read it. It makes it much quicker to go through them, especially since we cannot answer more than one phone call and do not have it, so our phones are always off. The hardest thing with Zoom is that if we have a power outage, the phones don't work since they rely on Wi-Fi and power.

We use Zoom for our meetings. Being in a global company, we all have got global employees in each and every group almost. To meet them effortlessly we use Zoom day to day basis. And we're dependent on it. As a support analyst, I found some problems seeing Zoom settings while I was on a call with one of my clients on Zoom. So, if any of my clients get problems with Zoom software and when I jump on a Zoom call to investigate the issue, it is preferable to view the Zoom settings interface like settings (for example).
  • amazing interface
  • great sharing option
  • great communication tool
I can really communicate well with all my clients and colleagues, undoubtedly it's a great tool for me.

We conduct weekly meetings of up to 20 attendees. The meetings alternate between hybrid and online. We have half of the members on premises, and half are spread from the USA to Japan, with Europe and Africa in the middle. Zoom Workplace allows us to meet effectively and efficiently to conduct our club business.

We were using a 3rd onSIP provider before and they did not have any client. The compatible clients did not work on Linux. It was a nightmare to configure and manage them. Since we were using Zoom Meetings, we decided to integrate it to our current system. We are quite happy with the performance. Recently we started to evaluate Zoom Rooms and so far, the evaluation is going on well. We hope to deploy this to our organization.
  • Easy to use Interface
  • Seamless updates
  • Ease to configure and Manage
Zoom Workplace is suitable for SMB's and enterprises, where one does not have enough resources to manage the environment, easy to manage.

Zoom Workplace is disappointing. I was first impressed with Zoom Workplace as a video conferencing tool, and that's still their greatest strength and core competency. They do that well, perhaps better than anyone else.

However, in my opinion, their support and customer service is awful. I'd ditch Zoom Workplace in a heartbeat if we hadn't invested in Zoom Rooms, and will migrate away when are equipmenourt needs replacing.

Also, in my opinion, thery're so anti-Microsoft, they don't have a Teams plugin which would make improve their phone application greatly.

It's a great video conferencing app, and Zoom Rooms are easy as pie.

Hybrid meetings where some people are in office and some are working from home. We also use it to facilitate online info sessions or webinars. It's great for one on ones but also large team meetings. We do typically have between two and fifteen people per call but can have up to 40 at certain times of the year.
  • integration into google calendar
  • integration into hubspot
  • chat function
  • touch up filters
It's a product that can grow with your company or team. We started with the free version and were able to validate that it was great for our team before adding premium seats but we still have some seats for free. We don't have to pay for features we don't need and that's not the case with some of these types of products.

We utilize Zoom Workplace as a method of collaboration being that our workforce is entirely distributed. The tools that are available within Zoom Workplace really make it easy and effective to keep connected while not being in a physical office. Because there are limitations in regards to other services offerings similar to Zoom Workplace, it has become a preference for our employee base to use Zoom Workplace for both internal and external business use cases.
  • Webinars
  • Screen Sharing Collaboration Features
  • Engagement Features such as Whiteboard and Polls
We always recommend our employees and our clients to utilize Zoom Workplace as a means of collaboration to ensure that both us and they receive the best overall experience with the most features available should those be necessary to achieve the goals of meetings. It's always a much more reliable tool, and allows for many functional integrations which can often times be greatly helpful as well.

There are sometimes Teams issues when attending virtual meetings. Therefore, Zoom Workplace is great with attending meetings! I rarely have connection issues, there are several virtual backgrounds and helpful tools like whiteboards that allow interactive presentations. I think that it is super easy as well to schedule an appointment and easy access to discuss with my team!
  • Preparing meetings with assets
  • Disparate apps to use in a session and day
  • Meetings tab that provides users with info and other assets
  • Awesome features like virtual backgrounds
Zoom Workplace is very well suited when I need to reach out to a client and schedule a call with them. I am able to blur my background and do other features for my privacy. However, I do not like that there is a free version that limits the amount of time I can use it. I understand being behind a paywall to get a license, but the limit is very small and can cause issues when attempting to troubleshoot an issue.

Our org teaches managerial trainings & leadership workshops across the globe. Although we do teach some in person, the large majority of our workshops are taught virtually.
  • Obviously, video calls
  • extensive admin controls, with the ability to control things at an org, individual, or meeting level
  • reporting
  • polls
Although there is some room for improvement, Zoom blows it's competition (MS Teams, Skype, etc.) out of the water.

If you need video conferencing software, Zoom delivers on just about any scenario you may think of. From a book club meeting, to hosting an event for 1000 people, Zoom can do it all!

I use Zoom Workplace to conduct meetings with team members and clients, conduct online training sessions, and demo our product for potential clients. My company is completely virtual and we support and collaborate with people all over the world, so it is important to be able to meet with people via an online tool using video and audio, screenshare, and text chat.
  • Screensharing is easy and works quite well
  • Video is good quality
  • Audio is good quality
  • Recording options work well
It is great for meetings, presentations, demonstrations, and instructor led training. It is not very good for informal social gatherings, since only one person can easily speak at a time, so it is difficult to strike up side conversations and you end up taking turns talking, with one person "holding court" at any given time.

  • Chat and availability
  • Sharing documents quickly
  • Provides ability to have other join a video call quickly
I have a remote team so it lets me quickly be a hold of my team as if we were all sitting in the office. Mobile app could use work so I can participate better in a meeting such as drawing on screen.

To facilitate internal and external meeting as well as webinars to our agency partners. I prefer using Zoom Workplace over Teams as it lags and often disconnects during meetings.
  • Don't have issues with connectivity
  • Webinar and event features
  • Polling
  • Reaction features are fun
I like how streamline it is to host external events and how you can add events / meetings to your calendar, create registrations forms for the events, sends reminders of events and personalize emails post events. As for meetings it functions better than teams so that is why I like it.
