Zoom 2022 Review

✓ Zoom
My personal favorite option for video conferencing is Zoom.
I would personally recommend this option over others because of it’s high-functionality and vast array of features. Even with the software’s many capabilities, it’s very easy to use, and doesn’t require a lot of know-how for many people to be able to operate it. Plus, it doesn’t hurt that Zoom is priced very reasonably, and even has a powerful free option available depending on your team’s needs.

In light of COVID-19 and the need to work remotely, we are using Zoom so that people are able to share their fun experiences of working from home daily. We are sharing what our work stations look like, discussing workout routines we are doing, talking about the music we’re listening to, and so on. We’ve started doing virtual happy hours as well and they’ve been a big hit! In addition, there are plans for a Zoom morning workout routine hosted by team members. Zoom is super easy to use, and the cost is very low.

My preferred video conference software is Zoom. Following are two simple,yet powerful Zoom tools I use to enhance my virtual meetings and training:

#1 – Screen Sharing: Adult learners have limited attention spans and a variety of learning styles. Even if you are an excellent speaker, there are a lot of things competing for your audiences’ attention in the virtual learning environment. Use the screen sharing tool to share relevant documents, slides and images while presenting and maintain your audience’s attention.

#2 – Participant Feedback: Zoom’s participant feedback tool allows presenters to receive non-verbal feedback from meeting attendees. This feature is particularly useful for quick check ins. Simply ask participants to give a thumbs up if they are ready to proceed or select the raise hand, if they have questions. The coffee cup icon is great to use before taking breaks and the check mark or thumbs up can be used to indicate they are ready to resume the meeting. Lastly, the applause icon works well to praise presenters and colleagues for a successful meeting.

As a completely remote team, at Summit Digital Marketing, we rely heavily on video conference software to facilitate us in meeting together as a team as well as with our clients. Our preferred video conferencing service is Zoom, which allows us to regularly host video meetings. Some of the features that we love about Zoom are: the capacity to host a large number of people in every call; the ability for every participant to share their computer screen with the other participants; the ability to record every meeting; the chat feature, and so much more! We are very happy with our experience using Zoom and would definitely recommend it to others.

We have found Zoom to be our favorite tool for video conferencing. For some, video conferencing is not really essential to their business. For us it is absolutely essential – getting the right platform was not optional.

We like Zoom for several reasons, but at the top of our list are these:
– Zoom rarely crashes.
– The video quality is consistently high.
– It is very easy to use, even for technophobes.

If you are going to teach a class online, time is of the essence, so you can’t afford to use a platform that is constantly crashing or buggy – or one that people spend 15 minutes of class time trying to figure out how to use. We have students of all ages and walks of life. Some of our students are very tech savvy and others not so much. Zoom, fortunately, is very easy to use, and even technophobes learn to navigate without much difficulty.

I use Zoom on a regular basis because of the following features:
Screen sharing capabilities, virtual backgrounds, and admin controls to mute/unmute other members on the call.

The screen share is extremely helpful when I’m showing things on my desktop or need to walk a client through something. The virtual backgrounds are helpful if you use a simple green screen or background. Instead of a blank wall that looks like I’m in a phone booth, I can upload photos or use templates like an office building.

A major perk is being able to mute/unmute other members on the call as an administrator. Hardly anything as annoying as somebody not muting themselves while eating, getting a phone call or chatting with people around them while you’re trying to give a presentation.

Zoom is a great tool, and something that fits the companies workflow really well. The software allows for people to share their screen, so we can still get work done and help each other even though we are not stood at each other’s desk. You can record meetings, which is even better, as if someone does have to miss out on one we can always have a copy for them to get to at another time. While the world we have been thrown into is not ideal, using something like Zoom makes us not feel so alone, and allows for the company to continue, even thrive, in these new unprecedented times.
