Zoom Workplace Reviews & Product Details

Scheduling Zoom calls is easy. It links with my work calendar, so I can quickly see when colleagues are free and set up meetings without back-and-forth. I also like that notes taken in the chat during a call can be shared with colleagues and saved, so they aren’t lost once the call ends. The calendar view shows public holidays and colleagues’ annual leave as well, which makes it faster to find a suitable time and schedule meetings more quickly.

I can’t set “turn off AI assistant” as the default, so we have to switch it off at the start of every call. I suspect those settings are controlled by our account admin. During calls, the Zoom controls also often feel like they’re in the way, especially when I’m sharing my screen. Sometimes the Zoom tasks build up (I’m checking elsewhere) and it makes me anxious, since the number can get quite high. I also don’t like the wording of “X is inviting you to view the meeting summary” — it comes across as passive-aggressive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I like best about Zoom Workplace is how easy it makes working with others, even when we’re not in the same place. I love that I can chat, share files, and have video meetings all in one place. It just makes teamwork feel simple and natural. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I dislike about Zoom Workplace is that it can sometimes be overwhelming with notifications and meeting invites. Also, long video calls can feel tiring, and occasionally the connection or audio lags, which can interrupt the flow of work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Zoom is a great video-conferencing platform that makes it easy to host group meetings. It also has extra features like polls, breakout rooms, reactions, voting, recording, transcriptions, and other special tools, which is helpful for collaboration between teams. I also think the UI of the platform is quite easy to navigate and use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some dislikes I have with zoom is centred around its app. Most times after opening the Zoom app, my webcam automatically comes on without my request. Additionally, the app randomly crashes after a while, which can be very frustrating. It's also difficult sometime getting support in tackling some issues I come across.

Zoom Workplace is very reliable and extremely easy to use. I mainly use it for work meetings, and it works consistently well without technical issues. Scheduling meetings, sharing presentations, and collaborating with team members is very straightforward. One of my favorite features is the AI meeting assistant. The automatic summaries are very accurate and capture the key points and action items, which saves a lot of time after meetings. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Overall, my experience has been very positive. If anything, some of the advanced features could be easier to find within the interface. Other than that, the platform is stable and works very well for everyday professional communication. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like how I can easily switch virtual backgrounds depending on which client I am working with. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ability to allow others to share their screen is often hit or miss. I tend to have to make them the host to allow them to share their screen. Also, when I try to share my screen after having attended a previous first Zoom meeting, it only allows me to share the White Board or Zoom screen. I have to leave the meeting and completely restart Zoom in order to have all of the options to share. Lastly, where did the option to share my entire desktop go? It is REALLY frustrating not to have that available when I am collaborating with colleagues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Zoom is very smooth when it comes to sharing meeting links, and I also like the new feature, the Virtual Agent. Whenever I join a meeting late, I ask the Virtual Agent to summarise what has happened so far so I can catch up quickly. I also find the digital whiteboard helpful because I can draw sketches and convert them into actual images, which makes it easier to share ideas during the meeting.

Actually, I’m used to Zoom now, but when I first started using it as a beginner, the UI and overall interface felt very overwhelming. It has a lot going on, and the layout can feel cluttered, which sometimes makes it confusing to navigate. Compared to FaceTime or Google Meet, Zoom felt less straightforward at the beginning.

It is extremely easy to set up meetings and with the use of AI it can even help track the meeting and take notes so nothing is missed. The summaries are perfect to skim over for reminders on previous meetings. Also setting up recurring meetings is super helpful and a breeze. It easily integrates with my google calendar and even helps me schedule time to focus on specific tasks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The most challenging aspect would be rescheduling meetings. It can be difficult to find the best time for meetings and I wish the AI would send up to 3 recommended reschedule times based on everyone's calendar. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love that you are able to share your screen during a presentation or service if you are doing it on zoom. Also, you are allowed to join with many other members of your team to have a conservation and meet at one place where ever your are no matter the location. In addition, I love that even though a presentation is going on you are able to speak in chat with the peers in the meetings and even record so you can have notes for later and also create breakout rooms to talk with your team members and colleagues.

I currently dislike the connection of zoom sometimes, it will randomly disconnect you from the zoom room and cause you to rejoin again. Also, the recording limit that it gives you and if you go over you have to create a whole new meeting. Lastly, I don’t like when you create and save a setting in zoom it sometimes does not save and you will have to keep in repeating the process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The two specific features I want to add are Ease of access, it is really useful as one can join the meeting without needing to create an account, and its performance, the sharing screen feature is very stable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

the Limit: The 40 minutes limit of free version is quite short for detailed discussions which forces to restart meetings.

System Resources: Sometimes the app uses a lot of my laptop's battery which makes the computer run a bit slow if I have more tabs open. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Zoom Workplace is easy to use for classes and group work. The video quality is good, and features like screen sharing and recording are really helpful. That said, the free plan’s time limit can feel restrictive at times, especially when a session runs longer than expected. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The free version has a 40-minute limit, which can interrupt classes and break the flow. I also run into occasional connectivity issues, and the app can lag at times, which affects the overall experience. On top of that, there are frequent updates, and they can be a bit annoying.
