Definitely helped a lot during COVID19
Date: May 23 2020SummaryDuring the covid19 shutdown, we could use this tool to host trainings and even have internal meetings. With google meet not having record options and limit with people, Zoom really really helped us a lot during these trying times.
Positive1) Easy to use user interface compared to other softwares.
2) Dual screen recordings are a breeze where only the screen where the shared content gets recorded. Option to record both screen available too.
3) Setting up the meeting/webinar is very easy.
4) Does not appear to pull much bandwidth.Negative1) The option of not letting people with gmail or personal email register to meetings or webinars should be present. As of now, we have to manually look at email addresses and approve/deny them.

2) There also should be an option for the host to send a message in chat individually. The only options available are everyone or specific person. -
