From what I've read at that time here in Poland, the services weren't the problem - teachers either had a free hand in picking the platform to communicate or were told by local gov't which one to use. The problem was with some kids being able to attend this quickly deployed "cloud-run pandemic school" in first place. There were reports about the poorest families who couldn't afford a computer, whose kids had to attend class via phones or were simply called and instructed by their teachers about the curriculum. But that was eventually solved with schools renting machines and later with hybrid classes, which tried to give kids a substitute for normality. We had already running digital services for schools - there were already remote reports with parents or logbooks, live cameras previews (tho some argued about the privacy side of such idea) but nobody expected we'll need the full remote education that fast. Son of friends used Google Classroom; I've read about kids joining their classmates on zoom, discord or even facebook messenger
