A free alternative to Zoom, Google Meet and Teams

How Zoom, Google Meet and Teams work

Zoom, Google Meet and Microsoft Teams are video meeting services. A host starts or schedules a meeting and shares a link, and people join with video, audio, chat and screen sharing. Google Meet is part of Google Workspace, and Teams is part of Microsoft 365, where meetings sit next to team chat and files.

Their plans, time limits and participant limits change over time, so check each official site for the current details before you compare. They are a natural fit for work meetings, interviews and anything that runs on a calendar invite.

How a Vozzo room works as a meeting space

A Vozzo room has a host, speaker seats and a room chat. The host can share their screen with everyone in the room and lock the room with a password, so only invited people can enter. An Audio Room holds more than 1,000 listeners, and Party Live puts six people on camera with room for 1,000 viewers.

Rooms, screen sharing and one-to-one audio and video calls are free of cost, and rooms have no time limit: they stay open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. Vozzo is a mobile app for adults aged 18 and over, so everyone joins from their phone.

Which one fits your group

Choose Zoom, Google Meet or Microsoft Teams when your meeting depends on calendar invites, browser access or the tools your workplace already uses. Choose a Vozzo room when you want a free, phone-first space for a community meetup, a workshop, a fan club, a family call or a party, especially one with a large audience.

Many groups use both: a scheduled work call in one place and a relaxed community room in another.

Run your first free meeting room on Vozzo

Hosting a room has prerequisites, such as face authentication, so read how to start a live room first. Then give the room a clear name, lock it with a password and share the password only with the people you invite.

Open with the plan for the session, share your screen when you need to show something and use the room chat for questions. Keep personal details out of shared screens, and stop sharing as soon as you are done.

Check the official sources

Features, plans and limits change. Check Zoom, Google Meet and Microsoft Teams on their official sites for current features, prices and age rules. Safety tools differ too: look for blocking, reporting and privacy settings before you join any meeting.
