"Zoom is a great educational tool"
What do you like best about Zoom Events and Webinars?

The screen sharing feature. I use zoom to work remotely with students and it is beneficial for them to share their screen with me. Part of the advisement process requires paperwork so this feature is important to the work that I do.

What do you dislike about Zoom Events and Webinars?

I sometimes have issues with the meeting scheduling feature. My invitees sometimes don't get the email with the invite request. I usually will manually resend the link in this case. This issue will not deter me from using the program in the future.

What problems is Zoom Events and Webinars solving and how is that benefiting you?

Zoom is a great tool to use with students remotely. A lot of my students cannot come and meet me in person for a multitude of reasons an one of the benefits of zoom is that they can set up appointments to meet with me wherever they are.

"Very helpful tool for webinars"

Zoom is very easy to use for setting up webinars. I like how it is connected with my google email and also our companies scheduling client acuity. Signing in is usually pretty easy and it has multiple screen sharing features which is also nice.

What do you dislike about Zoom Events and Webinars?

Depending on who calls in or where they are in the country the connection can be spotty. I currently have to call in by phone every time I have a webinar because the volume when speaking to a customer goes in and out.

What problems is Zoom Events and Webinars solving and how is that benefiting you?

the business problems zoom solves for us is that we never have to be in person to have a meeting. Making it very cost effective and saving us time and resources to make a sale.

"Great Entry Level Experience"
What do you like best about Zoom Events and Webinars?

Zoom is a brand and software that is trustworthy, reliable, and known to many as the "Kleenex" of online meeting platforms. Users are already familiar with the process which makes the RSVP rate, Attendance Rate and user experience predictable.

What do you dislike about Zoom Events and Webinars?

Zoom RSVP pages offer very little bells and whistles, and the meeting rooms are not as feature rich as other webinar platforms designed exclusively for such purposes.

What problems is Zoom Events and Webinars solving and how is that benefiting you?

Zoom is easy to use for both the host and visitor and is cost-effective. If you are starting out and building your webinar audience, zoom is the way to go until you need more features.

"Easy to use!"
What do you like best about Zoom Events and Webinars?

Very easy to use, works functionally like other platforms so if you can use one you can pretty much use Zoom as well. It's very user friendly and has a good interface.

What do you dislike about Zoom Events and Webinars?

There isn't much that I don't like about it, it's fairly user friendly and everything works fairly easily and quickly for me and my team so there really are no improvements needed in my opinion.

What problems is Zoom Events and Webinars solving and how is that benefiting you?

We were able to attend webinars and hear from other people outside of our company to gain valuable insight into our field from other people outside of our company

Since 2020 the privacy restrictions are a huge benefit to zoom. There is no fear of anyone being in the webinar who shouldn't be.

The registration system is rather basic. The reporting could also be better, its very basic information and hard to understand.

What problems is Zoom Events and Webinars solving and how is that benefiting you?

Webinars are a great way to present content on a platform that most poeple are now very familiar with.

"Zoom webinars are great for leads but create confusion with CRMs"
What do you like best about Zoom Events and Webinars?

What do you dislike about Zoom Events and Webinars?

That zoom makes it difficult to capture the attendee leads using in-house landing pages/ lead magnets.

Sharing industry knowledge with interactive webinars that provide a value to our consumers and improves the brand.

"Reliable but could use more webinar functionality"
What do you like best about Zoom Events and Webinars?

Zoom always works as it should. Integrations are reliable, speaker/presenter access is reliable, and connection is reliable. I've never had to contact Support; which is valuable.

What do you dislike about Zoom Events and Webinars?

Zoom needs more actual webinar functionality. The ability to upload the deck or videos, and have any of the panelists advance the slides instead of just one person sharing their screen. Not to mention the fact that the controls are glued to the top of the screen. Also the it takes awhile for the recording to be made available.

What problems is Zoom Events and Webinars solving and how is that benefiting you?

We're able to present to a large audience of customers and prospects about our product and thought leadership topics. Then repurpose the recording of that presentation into video content that we can promote. We've seen millions in influenced pipeline from both those who attend the webinar and those who view the recording.

Improving collaboration, including more people in on meetings, and staying more up to date with everyone’s progress

Me and my boyfriend work abroad and had a meeting with colleagues in Italy with no problem, very easy and quick.
