Good for Calls, Could Be Great for Collaboration
Likeliness to Recommend
What differentiates Google Meet from other similar products?
I feel what really makes Google Meet stand out for me is its seamless integration into my daily workflow. The way it works so effortlessly with Google Calendar for scheduling and allows my team to collaborate on Docs or Slides directly within a call is something I haven't found to be as smooth on other platforms. I also appreciate its simplicity that anyone can join a meeting with just a browser link, with no mandatory downloads or complicated setups.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
From a functional standpoint, i would say my favorite aspect would be is its deep and seamless integration with the Google Workspace ecosystem. The ability to schedule a meeting from Google Calendar and have a link automatically generated, or to launch a call directly from a Gmail thread, is incredibly efficient. The standout feature within this integration is being able to present and collaborate on a Google Doc, Sheet, or Slide directly within the meeting window, allowing everyone to see the same document and work on it together in real-time. This transforms a simple video call into a genuinely productive and interactive workspace, which is
What do you dislike most about this product?
The aspect I find most challenging is the ephemeral nature of the in-meeting assets once a call has ended. The biggest frustration is that the meeting chat, along with any links or notes shared in it, vanishes the moment the last person leaves. This often leads to a scramble to copy - paste important information before the window closes. While you can use external tools, it breaks the workflow and feels disconnected. If the chat history, poll results, and whiteboard sketches were automatically saved and attached to the calendar event as a persistent record of the meeting, it would make the entire experience feel more complete and productive.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
I'd highly recommend Google Meet, particularly for teams already living in the Google Workspace ecosystem. Its greatest strength is the seamless integration; scheduling in Calendar, launching from Gmail, makes workflow incredibly smooth and efficient. It's also my go-to for external meetings, as the ability for anyone to join from a browser with a single click is unbeatable for simplicity. The only caveat is that you have to be disciplined about saving notes, as the meeting chat disappears once the call ends. Overall, i would say, for its sheer convenience and reliability, it’s a top-tier choice.
