Does zoom do a ton more than the meeting app since they have 7500 employees?

Even with just video conference software you need a lot of employees for the quality zoom has. It handles audio and video very well even in unstable networks. Their backgrounds and blurring has also massively improved in the last couple years.

No not really, even with a couple of hundred employees it would be a lot for that.
