More reasons to choose Zoho Meeting over Microsoft Teams
Take a closer look at Zoho Meeting's premium features that enhance business collaboration and help maximize remote productivity.
Join meetings without a dedicated account
Allow participants and guests to join online meetings without needing a Zoho Meeting account. Microsoft Teams Essentials doesn't provide guest access to its online meetings, meaning every meeting participant needs to create a MS Teams account.
Pay-as-you-grow subscription
Only pay for what you use with Zoho Meeting. Our variable pricing model allows you to choose a plan that suits your exact meeting requirements. You can choose monthly subscriptions based on your number of participants, from 10 participants to 250 participants.

Zoho Meeting lets you simultaneously share live video feed and your entire screen with meeting participants. Real-time collaboration is not just limited to Zoho Meeting's dedicated application, but can also be done from your browser or mobile app.
Useful integrations, efficient collaboration
Zoho Meeting, the best alternative to MS Teams for your business, is natively integrated with most Zoho apps, such as Zoho CRM, Zoho Connect, and Zoho Projects. Our online meeting solution is also integrated with popular day-to-day applications like Gmail and Slack, making Zoho Meeting a comprehensive platform for remote business collaboration.
Track all meetings in one place
Keep track of both past and future meetings in one place with your Zoho Meeting account. Access the Meetings tab to look at all the completed and upcoming meetings. This offers easier access than Microsoft Teams, where you need to access the calendar to view all the past and upcoming meetings.
Record meetings, replay on cloud
Record your online meetings in high quality and replay them any time from your cloud storage. While Microsoft Teams Essentials doesn't provide meeting recording, Zoho Meeting allows free plan users to record video, audio, and screen sharing. All you need to do is enable a setting in your Zoho Meeting account to automatically record future meeting sessions.
