Is zoom.us Safe?

As the market of video conferencing is growing, especially after the pandemic, I can` say that zoom is the number one choice. I remember those days, when people were talking about this software, how it`s cool to make everything online, without leaving home, just create a conference and have a stable internet connection, that`s it. Maybe, the problem is with connection, when it`s relatively bad, this hosting can`t bear the load and ping significantly drops. In comparison to others that more or less stay connected… But anyway props to them to set a good standard in the industry.

I don't know why people say it fell off, I really think it did not. I prefer it over skype and google teams which are being praised right now... Skype did fell of really and Teams don't have the features that Zoom has,. and this is why I do all my meeting on Zoom, and they go pretty smooth. The servers are also alright, I have good internet and I haven't had any issues with the lags, and the only lags could occur when your connection is not that good. Last but not least - I prefer Zoom because of security, I am not convinced google or skype are secure, so zoom takes over.

This app was very popular, when it began to operate, back into the pandemic days. Though, as I see this video conference industry is full of new products, better than zoom. Really, I don`t like this ugly interface and lack of stability. There are so many options that work better, even google meet, it`s much convenient for me.

Tell you what, they flopped big time. When the world became "remote" during the corona, zoom has gained so much popularity which no other compny has even dreamt of, and in such a short span of time. It was good in the beginning, but then what happened? Yea, what happened was a downfall. How many people are still using zoom? Not much, and not me as well. What they would have done with those billions - re invest into the company and R/D at least couple of billions so they have amazing technology and security to remain as Number 1 in the market. But, they are now replaced in most companies, and not trusted for corporate meetings due to low secuirty and performace. They need to get their stuff together, or its not gonna be another miracle soon.

I have been using zoom application since the moment when there was a Covid-19 all over the world and to be honest the company indeed save a lot of work places for people because everyone was able to work from home online and at the same time the productivity didn’t drop, otherwise it seems everyone started working better and with a large desire. Honestly, it is a pity that many people forgot about the zoom video application but at my work we are still using zoom video for communication with each other since all workers live in different countries. The quality of videos and sound is high level but I don’t like that they started to offer a paid subscription for using the application without advertisements and without breaks for 15 minutes after 45 minutes of a video call. Everything else is pretty okayish!

I'm sure absolutely everyone has heard of this app. But I think it's a bit overrated. Still this app is nice way to do video conferencing. I didn't notice any problems when I used it. By the way, if connection goes down, app automatically adjusts and makes connection better.
