You do not need to downland and extra apps and it integrate well with other google services. There is screensharing and live captions as well. There is also fun filters and backgrounds options. > > **Cons**: Recording and other certain features (like time limits) require a paid plan. Screen Sharing has some bugs, like freezing or other restrictions. Compared to other platforms like zoom there is less AI features and poorer customizations (including whiteboards \& polls). > > Overall, it a nice platform, its very easy to use and doesn't require the downloading of any external apps.

I enjoy that there's background options with a variety of themes to choose from, and It also allows you to blur your screen if needed. I also enjoy the fact that it makes team collaboration and remote work that much easier, because it's really easy to share links to meetings. It's also easy to collaborate on files. Overall, I do think it's a great value for your money given the access to tools and resources you get. > > **Cons**: Google Meets does freeze sometimes, and there are glitches with the screen. That's one of the biggest bugs I've run into. I've also struggled to access customer support at times, with dealing with AI loops or long waits to access help for basic issues. ----- ### "Best app for meets" — 3.0/5 > **Ashley** | *February 22, 2026* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 3.0/10 > > **Pros**: It's allows meeting to take place with low use of data , and it's has good network connectivity and it's efficient > > **Cons**: The fact that you must have the account with them, for first time users it can be tricky, especially if u do know > > It's nice having interacted with the app, it allows camera, voice mute mic, it allows raising of hands and it has a chat box ----- ### "Loyal Google Meet Customer\!" — 5.0/5 > **Violet** | *April 24, 2026* | Arts & Crafts | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Google Meet is beyond user friendly and supplies multiple functions for small business owners like myself. It's easily accessible and incredibly affordable\! > > **Cons**: There's actually nothing that I would change about this platform right now. It met all my needs and allowed me to continue serving my clients even when I moved 1 1/2 hours away AND during Covid\! > > I started using Google Meet when Zoom got overwhelmed with new users in 2020. That platform had begun to glitch on me so I looked for something else that was affordable, user friendly and reliable. Google Meet served all my needs as a small business owner and helped keep my business flowing through the chaotic times of Covid and after I moved away from where the bulk of my clients' live. ----- ### "Online meetings made easy" — 5.0/5 > **Jesus** | *June 4, 2026* | Mental Health Care | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Very easy to use, and set meetings.
