Zoom Conference (skype type of program) not working

Just recently Zoom conference is offering to install their program on Ubuntu, but I am not able to make it work.
I went here to download the .deb file from https://zoom.us/download to install it via the software center.
The installation goes really fast, probably too fast and then when starting the program, the first page shows up where I have "join meeting" or "log in" options available but none of both options works. The program freezes and I can not close the window.

From the documentation:
Installation
dpkg -i ZoomInstaller_i386.deb
sudo apt-get -f install
Should you come across any issues or be using the tar file to install, the following is the list of commands to install required dependencies
Ubuntu 12.04 32-bit
sudo apt-get install libegl1-mesa
Ubuntu 14.04 64-bit
sudo apt-get install libglib2.0-0:i386 libegl1-mesa:i386 libxcb-shape0:i386 libxcb-shm0:i386 libgl1-mesa-glx:i386 libxi6:i386 libsm6:i386 libfontconfig1:i386 libxrender1:i386 libpulse0:i386 libxcomposite1:i386 libxslt1.1:i386 libgstreamer-plugins-base0.10-0:i386 libssl1.0.0:i386

yes, I read all that, I amon ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS so no extra installation. I did try the terminal install instead of the software center: same results.... try it out yourself and see if you can make it work, it works much faster then skype and you can do multiple video group calls...

@michael on 14.04.2 you have some dependencies to meet, at least that is what I understand from the instructions I copied for you here, so uninstall it first, then run the command to install required dependencies and then finally install your app again. Also check my update in installation instructions, I addedsudo apt-get -f install
from the documentation, it is weird but I think they had a reason.

@michael so I tried to install it on 12.04 today, sorry but I don't have 14.04 and it did work, but I had to run thesudo apt-get -f install
