So what comes to your mind when you hear the word videoconferencing well I'm sure it is zoom for most of the users out there well zoom has gained a lot of popularity in the recent past when it comes to videoconferencing but then it comes with the chairs of privacy issues and well I'm sure you are here in this video addressing the same so well in today's video I am going to talk about seven cool zoom alternatives that you can use if you don't want those privacy issues to be bothering you well then what are we waiting for let's get started and have a look now the very first app in the list is whatsapp yes not for the business users out there but if you're looking for something that you can use to make calls I mean to have some videoconferencing done with your friends or family you can definitely use that and why do I recommend it because it's one of the easier services to place a video call to your family or friends and it is available on most of the devices out there the one thing to remember here is that whatsapp allows only four people on a video call so that's there now that group limit coupled with the lower video quality makes it just for casual crowds are there but then if you're looking something on the business side or if you want better quality or more people on the call I have something better for you yes I mean this video is all about something better than the other and well the next app that I would like to recommend is Google duo now not only does the call quality is an upgrade on Google duo when you compare it on whatsapp it also allows to add up to 12 participants in one call also unlike whatsapp Google duo is available on a skew of platforms heck you can also use Google duo a write from your browser so beat your family calls meet your friend calls or if you want to just quickly make a call for a business discussion you can definitely use Google duo out there now the third name in the list is Skype I mean no videoconferencing less is complete without including Skype and it has been there in this particular market for a long time now and it's still one of the best that you can use now the service offers almost the same functionality as zoom and the servers are quite reliable nowadays to the things to keep in mind here is that the free version allows you to add up to 20 members to a call as such for a small business of meetings that require only a part of the organization and the free version works really well however if you are a bigger organization and if you want more people on call you can check out Skype for businesses and if you are a team let's say thousand people you can also check out Microsoft team which comes bundled I mean the Skype comes bundled with that particular package so of course I mean depending upon your usage you can choose any of these now the next service that you can try is google meet or google hangout and of course you can consider google meet as an enterprises version of Google hangout aka Google duo I mean depending on the platform that you are using it on now google meet is accessible only four members of Google visit the suit or G suit but the feature it offers are great you can add up to 250 members take calls from your web browser or any other client said you know calls that get synced directly to your Google Calendar record calls and much more and it also is one of the most intuitive services out there now one thing I like to mention here is that only the host needs to be a part of the G suit organization and any person with the gmail account or a Google account can actually attend the particular meeting even though he's not a part of that G suit business account so well only the host needs to have that particular privilege now the next up on the list is easy talks and it's also the most promising services that you can try for video conferencing now this particular app has amazing web and video conferencing features such as full online meeting controls and an interactive whiteboard to brainstorm and bring ideas to life you can share presentations slide audio and video with up to 10,000 participants apart from that you have poles you can chat in private even though in your in a meeting and you can also shared you unlimited calls using this particular app but then just like zoom you have 40 minutes for those free account and you can upgrade to the premium version or the business version if you are looking to end like if you're looking for more feature and if you want to extend that for 40 minutes time limit that this particular app has well now moving on let's talk about an app for a bigger organization and in such cases Zoho is something that I would really recommend now the company offers a lot of business related products and Zoho meeting is one of them the service and feud's features like an integrated calendar and RSVP scheduling as well as screen sharing and the ability to record and stored webinars and conferences for later viewing it also offers audience polls question-and-answer sessions analytics and reporting and the best part is that all these features are available for all the users out there no matter which plan to choose while they're opting for the zoo Howe products out there now if you're looking for the best out there you should go and check out blue jeans and why do I say so well because we want better quality rise like better audio quality you get Dolby audio quality here you want better videos we get HD video streaming on blue jeans now you can install an app but you can also take calls from the web browser and get the same functionality get all the great features like screen sharing file sharing scheduling and much more but what sets this service a class apart is the enterprise grade insecurity that makes each and every call you place quite secure so if you are looking to switch from zoom and privacy is the reason that you're switching you should definitely check it out because of this AES encryption that you have for all the video calls out there now those were some of the best zoom called alternatives if you are still I mean it's still making call on zoom here are some of the best tips and tricks that you can follow on your computer or on your Android or iOS client to make good video calls using zoom now I'm not saying that you should use zoom but if you are using if I not
