Review of Zoom for use in University Recruiting
Date: Nov 18 2020SummaryGreat for working in large teams and large groups. Able to record sessions for later use and we're pleased with the usability amongst new users.
PositiveZoom has been easy to use and install with instructions clearly laid out for new users. There were very little technical issues for audio and video and we were able to record the meetings with ease. The chat functions worked well and we were able to break off in separate rooms as needed which was a huge benefit for large groups.
NegativeRequired some administrative privilege's to install and many users needed to use the online web version instead. Some passwords and logins for hosts were a bit rigid if needed to share amongst hosts however this was easily able to fix.

A great way to communicate with others
Date: May 24 2020SummaryInterface and connection problems aside, it is a great piece of software to have. The fact that you can communicate with your fellow workers as well as your friends who are far away from you in just seconds is a great experience.
PositiveZoom is a great way to communicate with your friends and family but it is mostly known for its meeting feature. As we all know, we are in the midst of a pandemic and this software is a huge help for all companies and businesses from all around the world as they can communicate even at the comfort of their own homes.
NegativeZoom, even with its rich features, has a downside to it. It's clunky user-interface. It is sometimes a pain to navigate as well as connect to the video conference that you're supposed to be in but that might be because of the number of users that are currently using it.
