This includes 1:1 meetings, group meetings, and Personal Meeting Rooms. This change creates a uniform 40-minute meeting duration limit for all meetings hosted by Basic (free) users on all account types. This overcomes any bad internet experience my clients might have because I can always hear them and they can always hear me.On July 15, 2022, Zoom is changing the meeting duration limit for 1:1 meetings hosted by Basic (free) users on paid accounts to 40 minutes. Plus I find when I'm on bad internet and I can dial in as well as join from my computer I can connect my participant ID so people see the video from my computer when I'm speaking over the phone. I know money is money, and this could be bad logic used to justify loads of SaaS subscriptions when there are free alternatives, but as I look at it at $15/month or $180/year I only have to work 1-2 hours/year to pay for this service and it dramatically increases my clients and potential clients' experience.
Simple screen sharing and remote controlĪnd then with Zoom (which has a free plan), I upgrade to remove the time limit and to have the custom meeting ID as well as allowing my staff to schedule their own Zoom meetings as needed. (and I made this call about 2 years ago as a digital nomad, things may have changed by now)
So here's my reasons for using Zoom over Google Hangouts/Meet/Voice/etc. (I hate the "is my internet bad, or is it yours?" stuff on conference calls). I find that Zoom is better at group calls and informing me (and others) whose internet is struggling. In the specific case of Zoom I find it much easier than hangouts because I can automate a lot around it, I have a personal meeting room number/name and so I can predict what the URL/phone numbers are going to be. I love bootstrapping, but when dealing with clients and prospective clients, technical and non-tecnical alike I find that the more serious tools I use the better experience I and my clients have.
