Good alternative to Zoom
I have been using this platform for 2 months now and find it very easy to use. Clients have mentioned they like the fact it is just a link to access the call and they find it easier to use than other platforms. It’s good that they have an app you can download instead of having to use a webpage platform.
I like it has a virtual background option that you can customise, but I wish the background colour of the platform itself could be changed to suit my own branding and preference.
The screen sharing option doesn’t always recognise all the open windows but after bringing the document you want on the screen and going back to screen share it works well.
Private messaging works well. It would be nice to be able to change the colour though.
I haven’t tried the streaming option yet but am looking forward to doing so. There have been no ads showing up when I use it.
I didn’t realise they were back on AppSumo so I’m hoping I can upgrade my tier before they leave.

May 13, 2025Thank you so much for sharing your detailed feedback—we truly appreciate your continued support and insights!
We're glad to hear that both you and your clients find Meet Hour easy to use and accessible. It’s great to know that features like link-based access, the downloadable app, and virtual backgrounds are making a positive impact.
Regarding your suggestions:
✔️ Customizable Platform Background – If you’re using a branded conference setup, you can already apply your own color themes and branding. In addition, we're excited to let you know that a new UI design is on the way, where you’ll be able to change the entire background color on the fly right within the conference.
✔️ Screen Sharing Improvements – Meet Hour offers three flexible screen sharing options:
* Entire Screen – Share your whole desktop including all open windows.
* Window – Share a specific application window.
* Tab – Share a particular browser tab.
Just select your preferred option before sharing. We’re continuously improving detection and performance to ensure a seamless experience.
✔️ Chat Color Customization – That’s a great idea, and we’re exploring more personalization features to give you even greater control over the platform’s look and feel.
We’re also glad you’re planning to try our live streaming feature—it allows simultaneous streaming to up to three platforms!
And yes, we’re currently live on AppSumo again! You can still upgrade your tier while the deal is active.
Thanks again for being a part of the Meet Hour community! 💙
