Zoom One

Zoom One, Zoom’s multichannel unified communications product, streamlines Zoom Phone, Zoom Chat, Zoom Meetings, and business SMS messaging into one communications solution.

The pricing of Zoom One starts at $14.99 per user per month. The lower-tier plans offer video and chat only, while the higher-tier plans add SMS, voice, and expanded features.

Zoom One Basic

Zoom One Basic is Zoom’s free collaboration software with video conferencing and team chat, full of participant-engagement features within an easy-to-use interface.

It supports up to 100 participants in video meetings but limits meetings to 40 minutes. While multiple basic users can share an account and license, licensing multiple employees under one company account requires switching to a higher tier.

For a free plan, the Basic tier includes a surprisingly robust set of video features to encourage in-meeting collaboration and real-time communication on desktop and iOS or Android mobile devices.

In a Zoom Meeting, hosts and participants can access the following controls:

• Meeting information: The top-left corner icon provides information about the meeting room’s title, Meeting ID, host, passcode, and invite link
• Mute/join audio: Mute/unmute microphone, test audio, and select meeting audio source
• Start/stop video: Turn video camera on/off, select camera, add Zoom background images/filters
• Security (host only): Meeting lock/unlock, enable meeting waiting room, hide/display participant photos and video streams, add/remove participants, and control participant activities
• View participants: See meeting participant names, the total number of attendees, which users have a microphone or camera on/off

Video collaboration features in Zoom’s Basic plan:

• Chat: Type a message to all participants, create smaller channels, or use one-on-one private messaging. Send files, images, lines of code, emojis, and GIFs
• Screen sharing: In-meeting simultaneous screen sharing
• Responses and hand-raising: Emoji reactions and virtual hand raising
• Breakout rooms: Split larger meetings into up to 50 randomized or pre-assigned breakout rooms to promote small-group collaboration
• Virtual background: Substitute an image, blurred background, or slide deck as a user background
• Waiting room: Before meetings, participants remain in a virtual waiting room until the host admits them
• Filters: Add colors, stickers, and mask-like filters to video streams

• Spotlight: Spotlight up to 9 users to pin their videos to the main screen for the meeting duration, no matter who is talking
• Whiteboard: Zoom Whiteboard, included in all Zoom One plans, is a collaborative canvas where participants can simultaneously draw, annotate, and ideate with multicolor pens, images, shapes, sticky notes, and comments.  Editable boards are saved in the Zoom cloud and can be shared during and outside of meetings. The Basic and Pro plans include 3 whiteboards, while the Business plan and up support unlimited whiteboards.
• Storage: Though there’s no cloud storage on the Basic plan, users can locally record videos and save their mp4 files on their device

Zoom One Pro

Like Zoom Basic, Zoom Pro supports only video, chat, and whiteboards. However, Zoom Pro expands the meeting time limit to 30 hours, supports up to 9 licenses within your company account, and offers 5 GB of cloud storage, compared to no cloud storage in the Basic plan.

While the Pro plan maintains the same 100-participant limit as Basic, Pro offers a handful of meeting features that expand administrative and developer capabilities and increase meeting attendee engagement:

Meeting Co-hosts

Meeting hosts can assign unlimited co-hosts to manage participants, virtual backgrounds, slide presentations, breakout rooms, polls, and in-meeting chat to free up the main host.

Polling

Polls allow you to create and pose up to 50 questions to participants during a meeting or webinar, providing information and feedback, and keeping teams engaged. Structure questions as multiple choice, matching, agree/disagree, rank order, short answer, or long answer.

Create polls in the Settings page and set poll anonymity.

After a meeting or webinar, poll responses are logged in reports for administrators to view.

REST APIs

Zoom REST APIs are pieces of code that allow users and developers to access Zoom information and actions within external apps.

The information contained in your Zoom account, such as meeting and user details, and webinar reports, can be useful for other purposes within your company’s app, like adding to a database or CRM system.

By scripting Zoom’s APIs into your company’s apps, you can:

• Access Zoom user details
• Access dashboard data
• Perform Zoom platform actions like creating a new user or deleting cloud recordings

Streaming

Live stream meetings and webinars to URLs on Youtube, Facebook, Twitter, Twitch, or third-party streaming services.

Reporting

Access reports and information about meeting usage, including: 

• Number of weekly/monthly/etc. meetings
• Meeting dates and times
• Meeting participant names
• Number of meeting participants
• Meeting durations

Zoom One Business

Like the two lower tiers, Zoom One Business offers video, chat, and whiteboards–no phone or SMS.

However, Zoom One Business, which provides between 10 and 99 licenses, expands meetings to support 300 participants and offers unlimited concurrent whiteboards.

The added admin portal provides one interface for an administrator to manage all facets of the contact center: billing, user management, accessibility, and usage insights.

Managed email domains make it easy to batch-add users by company or domain through automated emails prompting Zoom account creation.

Zoom One Business also adds useful video tools:

• Recording transcripts: Searchable, shareable meeting recording transcriptions and audio files, recording editing, and recording highlights
• Branding: Add your company branding and logo to the meeting login page, meeting background, scheduling emails, and create a custom meeting URL.

• Language interpretations: Designate an in-meeting interpreter with an interpreter audio channel, so participants can choose their preferred channel and overlay multiple languages at different volumes

Enterprise video meetings support up to 500 active participants, and Zoom webinars host up to 1000 attendees.

A webinar host typically prepares a presentation beforehand, alongside attendee interaction tools like meeting registration, polls, webinar branding, and Q&As. Webinars include live streaming, CRM integration, audience emoji reactions, and their own dashboard with engagement and ROI reporting.

Zoom Rooms, also included in the Enterprise plan, syncs in-office hardware and Zoom technology to create frictionless, highly collaborative, hybrid employee workspaces.

Zoom Contact Center

The Zoom Contact Center is a video-conferencing-focused omnichannel contact center unifying voice, web chat, self-service chatbots, and SMS.

An omnichannel agent inbox and dashboard aggregate inbound messages, allowing agents to respond to customers quickly on any channel or device.

From an administrator’s perspective, the Zoom Contact Center allows you build, customize, and monitor with tools supporting ease of use.

Quote-Based Pricing

Zoom provides custom contact center pricing quotes, to create a unique plan for your business needs and size.

Unfortunately, even after contacting Zoom through multiple channels, we did not receive any custom quotes for their contact center.

Drag-and-Drop Editor

Create a customer self-service routing menu–either a conversational IVR system or an automated chat messaging system–that helps customers reach an agent or voicemail, take an action, or gain information. Editor call and messaging flows can utilize voice, chat, SMS, or live video at any step in the process.

Use a drag-and-drop flow builder to design your auto attendant, creating output messages with native recordings or text-to-speech. Customers can respond with dual-tone multi-frequency buttons, text keywords, or voice, because Zoom conversational AI understands natural language.

The call plan editor uses widgets to customize each step in the customer’s journey. For example, the Collect Input widget provides customers with menu dial-tone or button selections, while the Send Media widget triggers an outbound message, sends a file, or initiates a video meeting.

Skills-Based Routing

Skills-based routing ensures that incoming tickets reach the optimal agent by using routing profiles to sort incoming tickets to queues based on ticket priority, conditions, and agent skills.

Create skills, skill categories, and proficiency levels, and minimum agent proficiency requirements. The routing system then directs incoming calls, chats, and SMS tickets to agents with the optimal skillset, improving first-call resolution and CSAT scores.

Analytics

Supervisors and administrators have access to a large glossary of metrics, KPIs, real-time reports, and historical reports providing contact center insights. Monitor active voice calls, live call queus, agent availability, individual agent call and ticket resolution statistics, channel usage, audio and performance quality reports, service level statistics, and customer satisfaction.

Optional Add-on Plans

Add the following features to your Zoom Contact Center plan: 

• US/Canada Virtual Service Phone Number ($5 per month): Add new US and Canada virtual service numbers to your account for agent or IVR use.
• US/Canada Toll-Free Phone Number ($5 per month): Add new US and Canada toll-free numbers to your account
