In Europe I haven't come across a business using Zoom instead of Google Meets or MS Teams, or even gathertown as someone else mentioned. Mostly because they already have licenses for Office or G-Suite. Is it a US thing?

Same. One place that was otherwise quite lenient and tended to let people use whatever (allowed both Teams and Slack) explicitly barred Zoom completely, considering it a security risk.

Must be. It's become pretty standard across companies I've dealt with. Maybe a 9/10 split with MS/Google.

Personally, I've never been on a Teams call. I'd say it's been about 50% zoom, 50% webex, surprisingly. Fortunately with webex, the invites include a generic SIP address that we can use with our video conferencing equipment.

It’s interesting how this differs so much! I think I’ve never been on a work-related Zoom call, and only extremely rarely something like webex. Almost always Teams.

Europe here, Netherlands actually: developers mostly using and preferring Zoom, rest of the organization using Teams.
