AI Generated Summary
AI-generated. Powered by real user reviews.
- Users report that Slack excels in its Live Chat feature, scoring 9.4, which allows for seamless communication among team members. In contrast, Google Meet, while still strong at 9.0, does not offer the same level of integrated chat functionality, which some users find essential for quick discussions.
- Reviewers mention that Google Meet shines in Ease of Use with a score of 9.5, making it particularly user-friendly for new users. Slack, with a score of 9.1, is also easy to navigate but may require a bit more time to fully utilize its extensive features.
- G2 users highlight the superior Scheduling capabilities of Google Meet, which scores 9.3 compared to Slack's 8.9. Users appreciate the integration with Google Calendar, making it easier to set up meetings without leaving the platform.
- Reviewers mention that both platforms offer solid Screen Sharing options, but Slack's score of 9.2 slightly edges out Google Meet's 9.0. Users appreciate Slack's ability to share screens during chats, enhancing collaboration in real-time.
- Users on G2 report that Google Meet's Product Direction is highly rated at 9.6, indicating a strong commitment to continuous improvement and feature updates. In comparison, Slack's score of 8.7 suggests that while it is also evolving, users feel there is room for more innovation.
- Reviewers mention that both platforms offer a One-Click Join feature, scoring equally at 9.2. However, users appreciate that Google Meet's integration with Google services makes joining meetings even more straightforward, especially for those already using Google Workspace.
