Think of a web conference as a one-way street, and a video conference call as a two-way (or more than two-way, if you have multiple attendees) communication. Video conferencing is good if you want to: Have actual conversations with your team. Brainstorm together.

- Technical failures with equipment, including connections that aren't made.
- Unsatisfactory for complex interpersonal communication, such as negotiation or bargaining.
- Impersonal, less easy to create an atmosphere of group rapport.
9 best practices for engagement in virtual meetings
- Co-create your team's rules of engagement or virtual meeting norms.
- Remember that virtual meeting design is more than agenda planning.
- Avoid technical and time-zone scheduling snafus.
- Always do a virtual icebreaker or check-in.
- Create a line for participants to follow.
Possible reasons for a video call to freeze or experience delay: Low internet bandwidth that does not support good video calls. Poor internet connection.
