Zoom Pricing

Zoom · Communication

Video conferencing that displaced WebEx and GoToMeeting through better free-tier quality and simpler UX. Scaled from 10M to 300M daily meeting participants during COVID. Now bundling AI Companion into paid tiers to defend against commoditization from Google Meet (free) and Microsoft Teams (bundled with M365). Priced per host, not per participant. Best free tier in the category if you can live with 40-minute group meeting caps.

In other words, Zoom is still worth it in 2026 if video is core to your work — frequent external meetings, webinars, or client calls needing reliable recording, transcription, and calendar integrations. Pro covers most professional users; Business adds SSO and advanced admin. Easy for non-technical users. Native calendar integrations plus 2,500+ marketplace apps. Downside: Zoom fatigue is real, pricier than bundled alternatives, and AI Companion features feel bolted-on. Business Plus was retired mid-2026.
