Zoom has been one of the most popular video conferencing apps in 2020 since the pandemic began. It gives you the ability to connect with up to 100 people on a free account, which is unmatched by any competitor in the market.

No, Zoom experienced technical issues on August 24, 2020, but their software team has since resolved the issues. Zoom servers are currently functioning normally, including Zoom Chat, Conference Room, Web client, Phone client, and desktop client.
