  "verdict": "Zoom Pro at $13.33/user/month (annual) remains the baseline for professional video conferencing, but the real cost is in add-ons. The AI Companion (meeting summaries, smart recording) is included free on paid plans, a genuine competitive advantage over Google Meet and Teams, which charge extra for comparable AI features. But the free Basic plan is now outclassed: 40-minute meeting limits feel punitive when Google Meet offers 60 minutes and Microsoft Teams offers 60 minutes with 100 participants for free.",
  "bestFor": "Organizations with heavy external meeting workflows (client calls, webinars, sales demos) | Hybrid teams needing reliable, low-latency video with large participant counts | Companies that need an all-in-one platform (meetings + phone + webinars + rooms) | Teams where meeting recording and AI transcription are daily workflows",
  "hiddenCosts": [
    "Cloud recording storage fills fast: Pro and Business include only 10GB (about 10-15 hours of recordings).",
    "Zoom Phone is a major add-on: Not included in any standard Workplace plan except Business Plus.",
    "Large meeting upgrade: Standard plans cap at 100 (Pro) or 300 (Business) participants.",
    "Zoom Whiteboard premium: Basic whiteboard is included. Premium features (unlimited boards, advanced templates) cost $2.49-6.99/user/month."
