I'm honestly surprised by it. I had gotten the uninformed impression that it was being abandoned. I think the introduction of Duo or whatever it's called (the new chat platforms) threw me off.
- kyrra 10y agoI'm a Google employee, opinions are my own. Duo is person-to-person for mobile without the requirement of having a Google account. There are no multi-user video chats. There is no desktop client. It's more akin to Facetime from my point of view. Hangouts video continues to serve a different market (people that need 3+ people in a chat, plus desktop support). Meet simplifies this for businesses that heavily use it, as you can just jump into Meet and join your next meeting (instead of finding it on your calendar and then joining it). From my own using of it, I've like it so far. Keep in mind that March 8 is the start of Google Cloud Next[0]. This event covers cloud services, gsuite, and other enterprise focused features from Google. I'd keep an eye on that event. [0] https://cloudnext.withgoogle.com/ https://cloudnext.withgoogle.com/
