At work we are using Slack, but the video calls only work on a physical computer, which is just an insane idea in 2020 where even entry level smartphones have better cameras than my laptop and where you might need to show a screen or pin board to a remote team member.
In Toastmasters we mostly use Zoom. The disadvantage is that it is not free (if you need more than one to one and more than 40 minutes) and that you can't have a standing meeting, somebody needs to host it and when the host leaves, the meeting is over. Upside is that it works, and that you can have basic things like push to speak, mute all participants, etc.
If somebody is looking for a start-up idea, a zero setup, click here to generate an url and send it to others to have a video meeting would be a god-send. Slack gets it right by continuing the call as long as at least one person is still connected, even if the person who started the call has left.
