Since the pandemic, most probably all of us have used Zoom at some point to join or host a meeting. No matter what it is, either it is an online class or online meeting conference, or just for chatting with friends. During this time, Zoom has become more than just a video calling platform, it is now connected and became intrinsic to the way we work at offices, schools, colleges, or universities. To those who don't know about this software, Zoom is a video teleconferencing software whose aim is to connect people all around the world with a single touch. No matter where you are, you can start or join meetings with secure and flawless audio and video sharing, it's not just limited to it, you can screen share, co-annotate documents to brainstorm, and unlimited messaging. About 3.3 trillion minutes of meetings are hosted on zoom each year, has more than 300 million participants who are active on Zoom daily ^{Source of statistics}. Zoom now has more than 500 million downloads on the Google play store.

As aforementioned, Zoom is a video conferencing software that never fails to provide high-definition video quality, smooth and clear audio quality with advanced background noise suppression, and unlimited other resources to help users deal with daily communication. It has proved itself as a number 1 beast in customer service and experience because of its user-friendly interface, easy-to-navigate buttons, and rich in amazing and outstanding features. It's totally free to join or host meetings from anywhere and you know the best thing, you can invite up to 100 participants and can see 49 participants video or screen sharing at once, Isn't that amazing? Zoom also allows cross-platforms so you can log in and connect with others using any type of device with any type of OS installed.

• Real-time collaboration

It's important to understand that Zoom is not just an ordinary app, it's a super app for communication that contains everything you will ever need right into your smartphone or your pc. You can not only share video but can also screen share to present your slides or give a real-time formal presentation. You can message to all the people as a group or select an individual and private message within the online meeting. While screen sharing, anyone who is allowed to annotate to the screen can annotate it, so it's possible that everyone in the meeting can annotate, these little tools are the things that level up the software reviews. Annotations are very important in the field of teaching, our teachers annotated on white and blackboards in the pre-covid times, Zoom made it easy because it is a natural way to teach the students by showing them different patterns.

Now, communication is not only limited to just talking face to face in this era, it's more than that now, it is the way of sharing ideas, photos, images, thoughts, files, slides, and references right? Zoom got you covered in that too. With the help of Zoom, you can share images, files of any type to the whole group or just particular individuals. Believe me, this feature helped me a lot.

Since the pandemic, we've seen two of the most prominent and dominant software which are Zoom and other is Meet. When I was first introduced to Zoom and Meet, I was definitely liking Meet because meetings are web-based so we didn't have to download but the Meet at that time, let's just say, was not evolved as much as Zoom. If Meet was anywhere near the app it is now, Meet would've taken the lead long ago. Zoom, since its launch in 2013, was working hard to give users a friendly environment with their software and thus has become the #1 app for video conferencing but not to forget, Meet is much better now than it was before, many improvements have been made but that doesn't beat the fact the Zoom is still at the top of the league.
