It is just coming out that Zoom has security holes and privacy issues. Zoom Bombing and they share ALL of your data with everyone especially Facebook. Nice, huh?
Here are some alternatives:
- Jitsi (open source and secure)***
- Join.me is owned by GoToMeeting
- Cisco Webex Teams & Jabber
- Microsoft Teams (if MS hasn’t changed its name again)
- Google Hangouts (now called Google Meet) (some privacy concerns there)
- Bria Teams by CounterPath
- AnyMeeting by Intermedia
- Gather (UK)
- GlobalMeet by PGi
- UberConference by Dialpad
- FreeConferenceCall.com
- 8×8
- Vonage
- HouseParty
- Amazon Chaime (privacy issues too)
- Workplace by FB, WhatsApp, Messenger (privacy concerns)
- RemoteHQ
- Whereby
- StarLeaf
- Blue Jeans
- Talky
- HighFive
- Webinar Jam
- LiveStorm
- ezTalks webinar
- Samepage
- BigMarker
- Adobe Connect
- OnSync
- Zoho Meetings & Showtime
- Team.Video
- Panterra Streams
- OnSIP Video Chat (5 simultaneous users) does not require any software download, has true end-to-end encryption, requires only the call admin to have an @onsip account and is free to use.
I have not tried them all, but you can.
