It’s OK – Hangouts Review

I was using Zoom to host a weekly Men’s fellowship during the coronavirus pandemic BUT Zoom only allowed us 40 min. Per meeting PLUS we heard of horror stories of Zoom Bombing (meeting being hacked with pornography & racial slurs) so we decided to try Google Hangouts. IT’S OK BUT the Zoom app works a lot better. Zoom is a lot more user friendly in inviting guests to the meeting & controlling participant controls during the meeting. Plus we had an audio problem with a echoing. But Hangouts was OK but I like Zoom better, & the group felt safer that we wouldn’t get hacked using Hangouts plus with Hangouts we didn’t have time constraints. There is a price w/Hangouts after the 14 day trial period, & you can also upgrade Zoom for a similar fee to remove the time restrictions but we just decided to go with Hangouts for security reasons!!!
