Facebook and Google are gunning for Zoom by ramping up their own group video apps, raising questions about whether they'll be able to successfully eat the video conferencing platform's lunch by leveraging their advantages in scale and existing user loyalty
The two tech giants are now gunning for Zoom by ramping up their own group video apps, raising questions about whether they'll be able to successfully eat Zoom's lunch by leveraging the immense advantages they hold in scale and existing user loyalty. The added competition will also test whether Zoom has done enough to allay the privacy concerns that cropped up as its service was taking off.
It's early to be getting comparable numbers for Facebook 's Messenger Rooms, but the company said in its announcement that between WhatsApp and Facebook Messenger, 700 million accounts already participate in video calls each day. That makes Facebook in particular a massive competitor to Zoom with a large, built-in audience and a strong consumer brand.
