Strengths and weaknesses
Beeper

- Free on every platform
- Most connections run on your device
- No iMessage support

It's free on every platform, though there's no iMessage and the Android app gets mixed reviews.

Zoom Workplace
- Meetings are easy to run and simple for guests to join
- Unlimited AI summaries included with paid plans
- Apps for every major platform, plus a web client
- Free group meetings end after 40 minutes
- Free plan AI is capped at a few summaries a month
- Chat and docs feel secondary to meetings
Zoom Workplace is still one of the most dependable ways to run a video meeting. Calls connect quickly and are easy for guests to join from any device. Around that sit team chat, docs, whiteboards and AI meeting summaries, which paid plans include at no extra cost. The catch: free group meetings stop at 40 minutes, free AI is capped at a few uses, and the chat and docs tools trail Slack and Teams.
