The report further illustrates our drive for excellence for us by giving Zoom the highest possible scores in 16 criteria, including:
We know evaluating UCaaS vendors can be challenging, with so many reputable providers to choose from. That's why respected reports like The Forrester Wave™ are essential to help you make informed technology investments. If you're migrating from a legacy solution or expanding your tech stack as your business scales, here are a few reasons we believe Zoom Workplace stood out as a leader: proven reliability, cost-effective AI, and an enterprise-ready easy-to-use platform.
For us, meetings are more than just a communication tool. They provide opportunities for our customers to build meaningful connections across distributed workforces through AI-enabled features. The Forrester report states:
Zoom’s strategy is to refocus collaboration on meaningful connection, and it is innovating aggressively to enable this. While AI-enabled communication is not unique, Zoom has invested carefully in making the meetings experience better, for example, by connecting AI notetaking to work automation.
Remote collaboration is harder with unreliable software, service interruptions, and multiple apps that create the dreaded toggle tax. Zoom Workplace minimizes this friction through a reliable, all-in-one offering with Zoom AI Companion. To make meetings seamless, we redesigned the entire meeting experience from beginning to end, giving users tools like Zoom Docs for pre-meeting agenda templates, Zoom Whiteboard for live brainstorming, and post-event AI summaries that eliminate the need for note-taking. Because of this, we're proud to hear our customers say, "Zoom just works." We believe this ease of use is further reflected in the report, citing:
Zoom’s strengths come from its meetings experience, work persistence, and reliability. Work persistence is enhanced through tightly coupled docs collaboration and no-code employee-accessible workflow automation. Zoom supports local backup not just for phone systems but also for video meetings and even messaging support. Zoom offers a credit-backed 99.999% uptime SLA for its phone system.
For the millions of people who rely on Zoom daily, we believe this recognition shows what you already know: Zoom is a platform designed with your productivity and enjoyment in mind.
As we continue to evolve Zoom Workplace with new features and capabilities, we're confident you'll uncover new opportunities to increase your productivity and win back your work day.
