How these video conferencing products compare
Video conferencing pricing in 2026 is defined by a single question: what does your company already pay for? If you're on Microsoft 365, Teams is included. If you're on Google Workspace, Meet is included. For everyone else, standalone pricing ranges from $4/user/mo (Teams Essentials) to $25/user/mo (Webex Suite). Free tiers are generous across the board — Zoom, Teams, Meet, and Webex all offer 100-participant meetings at $0. The competitive front has shifted to AI: Zoom bundles AI Companion on all paid plans, Google is rolling out Gemini AI across Workspace, while Microsoft charges $30/user/mo extra for Copilot. That AI pricing gap is now the biggest cost variable in the category.
How to choose between video conferencing options
Four factors determine your best fit. First, your existing stack: if you pay for Microsoft 365 Business Basic ($6/mo), Teams video is free — buying Zoom separately would be redundant spend. Same logic applies to Google Workspace users and Meet. Second, free tier duration: Teams and Meet give 60-minute group calls free, while Zoom and Webex cap at 40 minutes. Those extra 20 minutes matter for real meetings. Third, AI cost: Zoom includes meeting summaries and action items on all paid plans at no extra charge. Microsoft charges $30/user/mo for Copilot. For a 20-person team, that's $600/mo difference just for AI note-taking. Fourth, security requirements: only Webex and Zoom offer true end-to-end encryption. Google Meet does not. For regulated industries (healthcare, finance, legal), this narrows your options immediately.
