What features do you consider essential for a video meeting platform?

Needs to degrade gracefully on poor internet connections and support verifiable end to end encryption that users can trust.

I think an important a important feature is an attendance sheet, engagement tracking and meeting minutes.

Integration with email list management programs, virtual backgrounds, virtual whiteboards, screen sharing, calendar integration, recording

Group video call, screen sharing, etc.

recording is not enough in itself, one has to be able to replay recorded video meetings in a nice user friendly format (unlike Zoom).

- Support of low-bandwidth connection. Many platform fail at the point. I do often cross-continent calls and video-quality could be better - Basic layout changes, so you can pin/place others to the right positions

How about having an AI-generated automated meeting summary? It'll save you all the hassle of taking notes and give you a quick rundown of everything discussed.

Sharing the screen, option to record the meeting are the first that came to my mind 😊

Simplicity, ease of use, smart quality reduction on bad internet connections. For bigger groups... the ability mute, spotlight and in meeting chat that can also be threaded.

Everything should be Smooth.

Having no technical issues is the only thing I care about. You can come up with all the fantastic features but they do not mean anything when you are struggling to meet the essential function of the tool, MEETING.

One essential feature for a video meeting platform is reliable connectivity. It should also allow file sharing, whiteboarding, scheduling, recording, and screen sharing to facilitate collaboration.

Sure for privacy, easily & richly interactive function would be a huge plus too
