Zoom. How many Americans use it?

[DrZoidberg]

I know the pandemic really increased the number of Zoom users, but how can someone know the number of active users now since the pandemic is basically over? I don't want to take Zoom's word for it. Personally don't know anyone that uses it, but recently was told I needed to have a Zoom meeting with someone and they sermed surprised that I didn't already have the app on my phone. Perhaps that's office worker mentality. Is there a way to know how many Americans have it installed and how many use it at least once a month or ever?

No, only Zoom will know that information.

My office and 99% of my clients uses Teams. So I only ever use it if a vendor uses it.

Is Skype still used? I only ever see it used on TV live streams.

Skype is still around as the consumer version. The business version is Teams and was rebranded a while ago. They do also have Teams Personal.

I've been on a couple Zoom meetings in the last week or two, although a lot of orgs just use teams for other collab features so it's the natural platform for most, especially when you can delegate between organizations such as hopping on a meeting instantaneously with a client.

What I haven't seen in a long ass time is a GoToMeeting.
