It all new, Zoom actually is one of the pioneers.
- dash2 6y agoWhat was new?
- samcheng 6y agoThe aggressive sales team focused on a video calling product; all of the other major solutions are afterthoughts owned by companies focusing on other products. Oh, and that "Brady Bunch" view that Google quickly copied, after refusing to update Google Meet for years before that.
- rtx 6y agoTime to to WOW. Using zoom for the first time, launching an instance on Digital Ocean. It's common now but at the time it was unheard of.
- nradov 6y agoWebEx (acquired by Cisco) had all of the core functionality before Zoom.
- ulfw 6y agoThe zoom founder even worked at WebEx. So yes.
- throwaway201103 6y agoYes but getting 10 people together on a WebEx call involved 15 minutes of tech support at the start of each meeting. It just wasn't as smooth.
- rtx 6y agoYes, I am contrasting it with Webex.
