    Chose Google Meet
    I think it is the best option, personally. Zoom is a little more well known, I think but Google Hangouts Meet is so much more user friendly. As a company, we used to use Join.me, and I feel like it was glitchy and complicated to get clients on the platform. Google Hangouts Meet …

    Chose Join.me (discontinued)
    We selected Google Meet because we didn't necessarily need the unique URL or a dedicated app for screen sharing. We found that Google Meet was sufficient in getting everything we need for our team meetings, as well as meetings with the clients.

    Chose Join.me (discontinued)
    They both have their good and bad things but to me Join.me feels like there's less steps to get things done. Zoom is more robust but I'm also paying a lot more for it and it can be cumbersome at times to set up meetings. I've had far more issues using Zoom than Join.me.

    Chose Join.me (discontinued)
    It is a fundamental tool in today's world of work. Join.me is very simple to use and compatible with all devices. Also, it is a stable platform with a good price.
