Meet is business oriented and offers features that Hangouts does not, e.g. dialing in via phone. It also requires a G Suite account (or did before COVID, IIRC).

Didn't hangouts have a business version as well?

That's the same product. It was renamed to Meet.

Hangouts is EOL :-(

We're being herded into the new more useless products.

Hangouts was always terrible and bloated. I miss Google Talk. Instead, we get something more terrible and bloated than Hangouts.

Instead of focussing on Google Talk we have at least 5 different Apps from Google pretty much doing the same thing.
