La verdadera diferencia

Both offer free tiers, so the real question is what you get when you start paying.

Google Meet stands out with No download required (browser-based) and Live captions and translation. Zoom counters with HD video and audio and Breakout rooms.

Google Meet's Achilles heel: feature-light compared to zoom — no breakout rooms on free plan, limited recording, fewer controls. Zoom's: 40-minute free limit is annoying — and the brand still carries ‘zoom fatigue’ baggage from the pandemic era. Pick whichever weakness you can live with.

Conclusión

If you value no download required (browser-based) and equipos de google workspace, go with Google Meet. If todo el mundo — matters more, Zoom is your pick. Neither is a bad choice — but one will fit your workflow better.
