Where each one falls short
Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.
Sessions
- It will not replace Microsoft Teams or Google Meet for everyday internal calls, so most buyers end up paying for two conferencing tools and asking staff to know which one to open.
- The vendor is small and European, competing directly against Zoom and Microsoft, so any team standardising a customer-facing process on it should keep an exit plan and export recordings regularly.
- The preparation model that makes it good is also overhead; a meeting nobody had time to structure runs no better in Sessions than anywhere else, and teams that will not prepare get no benefit from the licence.
- Lifetime deals sold through AppSumo mean a segment of the user base pays nothing recurring, which shapes support priorities and has previously produced friction when plan terms changed.
- It is browser-only, which keeps participation frictionless but leaves it more exposed to browser and network conditions than a native client, and there is no desktop application to fall back on when a call misbehaves.
Zoho Meeting
- The free plan limits each meeting to 60 minutes and 100 participants
- Paid plans are sold in fixed participant tiers of 10, 25, 50, 100, 150, 200 and 250, so capacity is bought in blocks
- Recording storage on the Standard plan is 5 GB per host, with additional 25 GB blocks sold annually up to 1 TB per organisation
- The free trial runs 14 days
