We made the switch to Zoom for Government as soon as it became available — it was important for us to have the security that comes with it. There are a lot of good services out there but they don't meet the security standards for the Department of Defense.
"Zoom offers a variety of features that meet the needs of the education industry. The product is magic, but it’s the people behind the partnership and beyond the tool that we want to work with. Vendors who offer ongoing support and who we can build a relationship with are key for us."
Even though I’ve been on a 4-megabit connection for the last two years, I don’t feel like I’ve missed a step. That would not have been possible without Zoom. Even with other video conferencing technologies, like Teams or Webex, the experience is just not the same. Zoom works in environments where other solutions don’t.
"We tried a couple other video conferencing products, but Zoom was the best, hands down. We’re all about education, so we appreciate that we can easily record and post our sessions on the web so anyone can learn from what we discussed.”
“Zoom’s 25 person capacity is key for this. It allows for more people to join, see each other and converse, just as they would in a real café.”
“We like Zoom’s easy booking system: you click to book the meeting and the invitation goes out to everyone, regardless of what device they are using. The other day I was on the train and was able to join a Zoom call from my phone connected to my headphones – I find this kind of flexibility great."
“Zoom enables you to connect with people quite quickly because it is easy to set up from your calendar, quickly share links, share your screen, or invite more people into the meeting."
“Our visitors first and foremost notice the sleek scheduling display, then the lack of conference phone intrigues them [iPad Zoom Rooms controllers replaced their Polycom devices]. The ease of screen sharing without a bunch of cables reinforces our decision to deploy Zoom Rooms across their company."
“Sometimes it’s difficult to judge the feel of the room while describing the project over an audio conference call. Zoom has definitely improved the success of my projects."
“Zoom sits at the center of everything we do When I look at Zoom, it’s about value, and the keyword is connected. Zoom helps us save money, offers a better product with feature functionality set, and connects our people.”
"Using Zoom, we are able to simulate speaking exams no matter where our teachers are or where the students are. Quite often we will connect the two from opposite sides of the planet."
“I did a pizza party over that weekend with my IT team, and all of us went into the rooms and set up iPads, cameras, speakers, and other Zoom Rooms essentials. The installation process couldn’t have been any more straightforward and simple. By the end of the weekend we had dozens of rooms up.”
“Zoom is probably the most well-received collaboration tool that we’ve seen at Fox in 20 years. There’s not a TV production or movie produced at Fox without Zoom in the mix somewhere. There is no other tool that has brought people closer together than Zoom has.”
“My clients go all the way to the top of the company, meeting around the world, all the time. It has to absolutely work, and has to be flawless. Cyber security is extremely important for Fox. Our Zoom deployment was a lockdown solution.”
“If you have an open space environment and want to integrate collaboration spaces, then really the only way to make that happen, especially if you’re a global company, is to make video collaboration a part of that puzzle."
