The screen share works perfectly and the latency is always low. > > **Cons**: I don't really think we have any cons for google meet. If I had to pick something it would just be when hosting meetings for people outside the company who have not used it, they have to mess around for a moment to learn the interface. > > Fantastic experience from implementation to now. The end users seem to like this option much better than zoom, and we saved money in the log run too\! ----- ### "Google Meet for random meetings" — 4.0/5 > **Aroob** | *June 13, 2026* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: Amazing free app for quick meetings or scheduled meetings with anyone. You just have to send the link and you are quick to go. You can also share screen and send files through the chat. > > **Cons**: Sometimes the video quality is not that good. It offers some filters to improve your video but those filters also make you quite blurry. ----- ### "Flexibility, best personal an educational option" — 5.0/5 > **Karen** | *September 3, 2026* | E-Learning | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like its portability (so you can use it on your phone, tablet or computer) and swiftness despite por internet latency. > > **Cons**: Sometimes it can be a little overwhelming the mapping of options for interactions, comparing with another platforms is not that intuitive. > > Has been positive I think that its better for personal meetings than for professional, but it potentiates the interaction on educational context. ----- ### "Simple, Reliable, and Good Enough for Everyday Meetings" — 3.0/5 > **Wren** | *December 9, 2025* | Electrical/Electronic Manufacturing | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: Google Meet is easy to use, cleanly designed, and simple for anyone to join or host meetings with minimal confusion. The integration with Google Calendar and Drive is convenient, though some background options, participant controls, and file-sharing features feel limited compared to competitors. Occasional audio drops or screen-share glitches show up, but nothing that makes the tool unusable. Overall, it’s a fairly reliable everyday meeting platform that covers the essentials well. Best of all it's freeeee\! > > **Cons**: What I like least is the limited feature set compared to other video platforms. Backgrounds lag or pixelate, participant management tools feel basic, and screen sharing can behave inconsistently. When issues happen, support isn’t very accessible, and troubleshooting falls mostly on the user. It works, but it’s missing some depth and polish that heavier platforms offer. > > Overall, my experience has been mostly positive. It’s reliable enough for daily use, easy for new users, and integrates with the rest of Google Workspace. While it lacks advanced features, it handles standard meetings without much friction. For everyday communication and team check-ins, it works well enough. ----- ### "Online Meet Accessible Almost Everywhere" — 5.0/5 > **Leziel** | *July 15, 2026* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: What I like most about Google Meet is that it is quick and easy to generate meetings plus it can be generated through Google Calendar with the capacity to invite others. > > **Cons**: What I like least about Google Meet is that when someone generates a meeting link and is not setup properly, others can use it without the host. > > I like Google Meet due to its ease of use. I believe it also does not require big bandwidth as I can host or join meetings smoothly even using my phone. ----- Page: 1 / 488\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.ca/software/121823/google-hangouts?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.ca/software/121823/google-hangouts) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-MX | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
