but I would just use the browser experience there.
Laptop to laptop calls are silly to do cross-platform as almost all can be done in a browser. The big thing with interoperability is when you've got a whole room full of people, microphones and multiple displays to make everything looks and sound good on both sides and then you can't call the other party for whatever reason.
H.323 is the baseline for almost all video calls. Almost anything can use it. It relies on SIP for call handling, so it's a pretty old-school but reliable thing. Lots of new cool things don't think about interoperability but in order to scale up it does matter.
Hangouts' video compression leaves a lot to be desired. If you do a side-by-side comparison of how it handles packet loss or latency next to Zoom, Zoom just looks better and keeps up better.
It is one of those little things that will add up when you're banging you head trying to understand what someone is saying or pointing at or sharing to you on call after call.
