Microsoft Teams
About Microsoft Teams
Microsoft Teams is a chat-based workspace within Microsoft 365, which enables users to view and collaborate on documents directly within the application, participate in voice and video conference calls, view full conversation histories and email-style conversation threads, and more. Teams has replaced Skype for Business as Microsoft's online meeting solution.
Microsoft Teams can be customized to suit each individual team, with users able to create tabs for frequently accessed documents or regularly-used cloud services. Integrations with Word, PowerPoint, Excel, OneNote, SharePoint, Power BI, Delve, and Planner are all built into Microsoft Teams, allowing users to access and collaborate on a range of files. Skype for Business integration facilitates video and voice conference calls between users, connectors can be used to pull in notifications and updates from a range of third party services including GitHub and Twitter, and the Microsoft Bot Framework is also supported, bringing intelligent bots into the team environment.

For a free or paid version, this offers the combination of meetings and also storage. It is easy to create meeting instantly and also to join. Even in low bandwidth mode, this works just fine.
Pros
I have used this application to do meetings for office works. The initial onboard meeting was held in Microsoft Teams. They have a very fine app for mobile devices. I can manage my works and project using different team. So, its easy to catalog all upcoming project works. Also, the video and audio quality is great.
Cons
There is no way to upload the recording of meetings to Google Drive or other 3rd party storage providers. Also, it takes time to load in windows application.
