👎 Despite improvements, Zoom still faces privacy and security concerns. Past incidents exposed meeting links and allowed uninvited participants; some organizations worry about data routing and encryption defaults. Users must proactively adjust settings to prevent eavesdropping and avoid sharing links, which can be confusing for non-technical hosts.

👎 Zoom can be resource-intensive, consuming significant bandwidth and CPU during large video calls. Video quality often drops on slower networks, and participants on mobile devices may experience lag, audio glitches, or dropped connections. These performance issues can undermine meeting productivity, especially for geographically dispersed teams with uneven internet access.

👎 Many of Zoom’s most useful tools — advanced webinar controls, cloud storage, higher participant limits, and reporting — are restricted to paid plans. The free tier’s 40-minute cap on group meetings pressures users to upgrade, and complex admin settings can be overwhelming for small teams managing access and compliance.
