If your company already pays for Microsoft 365, you have Teams and you should probably just use it. The video calling is solid, the chat is persistent, and you won't need to justify another line item. If you don't use Microsoft 365... this gets complicated.
At $4/mo, Essentials is the cheapest paid video plan anywhere — Zoom Pro is $13.33, GoTo is $12
60-minute free meetings beat Zoom's 40-minute cap, and you get 5 GB storage too
If you already pay for M365, video conferencing costs you exactly $0 extra
Google Meet is the video call tool that doesn't ask you to install anything. Click a link, you're in a browser tab, you're talking. It's dead simple and free for 60-minute calls. The tradeoff? Anything beyond basic meetings costs real money.
Zero-install browser experience means your tech-challenged clients can actually join the call without a support ticket
Meeting links auto-generate on every Google Calendar event, so you never fumble with meeting IDs or separate invites
60-minute free calls match Teams and beat Zoom (40 min) and Webex (40 min) by a full 20 minutes
Webex is the video platform your compliance officer loves. Cisco's infrastructure behind it means real end-to-end encryption — not marketing E2E, actual zero-knowledge E2E. You'll pay more for it ($12-25/mo), and the app feels like it was designed by network engineers. Because it was.
True end-to-end encryption on all plans, including free — Google Meet doesn't offer this at any price
Real-time translation across 100+ languages is a feature nobody else matches at this level
The Suite plan ($25/mo) bundles calling, messaging, and video — potentially replacing three separate subscriptions
GoTo Meeting is the one without a free plan, which tells you a lot about who it's for: organizations that already decided they need paid video conferencing and want unlimited meeting lengths without thinking about it. It's reliable, it's simple, and it doesn't try to be a collaboration platform.
Truly unlimited meeting duration on every plan — no watching a countdown timer during your quarterly review
The interface is refreshingly focused: you open it, you start a meeting, that's it — no chat channels or file tabs competing for attention
GoPilot AI handles meeting summaries on all plans, same as Zoom's included AI Companion
