Zoom is an American based company, founded by Eric Yuan in the year 2011. It headquartered in San Jose, California. Zoom, to look after the business scale and other affairs in India, hired Velchamy Sankarlingam from VMWare in May. A few months back, the Indian government has declared Zoom, an unsafe platform for communication, and asked its citizens to minimize its usage, to avoid unnecessary calamities.
Clearing all the above-laid allegations, Zoom confirmed that our platform is completely safe and trustable. There was another controversy going on about Zoom- China connections; in that matter, Sankarlingam, through a blog post, told that they have companies in China, like any other multinational company, and it does not make Zoom, trouble for Indians in any case.
By observing its popularity in India, recently, Zoom has taken its big decision, it announces that soon it will be opening its technology centre in Bengaluru, to expand its business in India. It also confirms that it will recruit ‘key talents.’ Officials also said that approximately it would take five whole years, to complete the mission.
It would be interesting to see the reaction of the Indian Government towards this humongous step by the Zoom authority in India after all the allegations. On the other hand, the JioMeet App which is the Indian version of Zoom App has also started making its place in the market where Zoom enjoyed monopoly till now. This will encourage healthy competition in the market and while users will be able to get options for their online work system.
