Why We’re Switching to Another Video Conference Solution
As working from home is becoming the new normal, and both internal and external meetings are taking place virtually more than ever, organizations are evaluating video conferencing and remote collaboration solutions with a fine-toothed comb. Following the latest news about security vulnerabilities with Zoom, we decided to take a closer look at other options and see which one would meet our needs better.
Please keep in mind that our evaluation focused strictly on various video conferencing solutions’ core conferencing features, and none of their collaboration features. We used publicly available information on the vendors’ websites and did not speak with any of their sales and marketing representatives as part of our evaluation.. We also tried the solutions ourselves to evaluate the subjective areas.
We want to share the results of this evaluation with you as well as the methodology we used to arrive at this conclusion. But before we jump into the details, let’s talk about the findings so you don’t have to scroll until the end of the page!
Our Top Choices
The best solutions based on the categories selected for this assessment and our personal testing were GoToMeeting and BlueJeans. Their security capabilities, price, and quality of service and ease of use made them stand out over the other solutions. GoToMeeting beats the rest of the solutions because of the quality of the video, sound, and the number of advanced features (supports annotation, integrations, allows you to share individual tabs, and makes it easy to see what you are sharing). BlueJeans’s video and sound quality are also excellent, and we found it super easy to use.
We also want to give a special mention to Google Meet. It ranked third in our evaluation, but would have been a contender for first place if it wasn’t for the bad quality of the video calls during our testing. It is also easy to use, has excellent security features, and is currently offering free upgrading to advanced Google Meet to all G Suite customers until September 30. However, it’s also missing some of the advanced user-friendly features that Zoom and GoToMeeting offer.
As you may have guessed, we currently use Zoom and it came in last place because of the security and privacy issues that came to light last month. However, we have to say that Zoom beats everyone else in terms of video and sound quality, integrations, and advanced features.
Our evaluation criteria
The vendors we selected for our assessment:
Zoom
Cisco Webex
GoToMeeting
Google Meet
Microsoft Teams
Amazon Chime
BlueJeans
Zoho Meeting
Below are the categories we considered for this assessment, and the weighting that we assigned to each:
