Google sees Zoom as competition (They recently updated Google Hangouts to compete with Zoom) so it won't make sense for them to host there.

Microsoft has Skype.

I am not sure about Amazon. Someone please enlighten us.

Easy mnemonic, Chime is for when your softphone rings, and Ring is for when your doorbell chimes. Keep it straight.
