Accommodates large meetings with up to 500 participants, and I find it pretty intuitive and user-friendly
As per company policy, most internal meetings happen through Google Meet, but for large-scale meetings with more than 500 participants, we use BlueJeans Meetings. It's more like a broadcast meeting platform, which Google Meet doesn't allow The main advantage is the ability to host large meetings…

One-click meeting access and seamless integration enhance video conferencing experience
Cisco TelePresence could improve the WebRTC connections, as they are quite slow. The end user experiences delays when using WebRTC, sometimes taking one minute or more to receive a connection. This issue is mainly due to Cisco taking a long time to download and start the WebRTC client on their devices. Ensuring it is embedded in the device could help.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"It is available in all flavors. You can use it in the browser, and you can use it on an Android phone for which a BlueJeans app is available. I use an Android phone, so I only know about Android. So, you can join a meeting from the application installed on your phone or from the mobile browser, or you can use it from a laptop or a PC."
"It is really easy and there are no complicated graphics or icons. It is simple and has an intuitive design."
"It is really easy and there are no complicated graphics or icons. It is simple and has an intuitive design. It's user-friendly over anything else I have used."
"BlueJeans Meetings is very easy to set up; it is integrated with Outlook and you just have to select your participants for it to automatically populate the main body of your email."
"The main advantage is the ability to host large meetings with up to 500 participants. The sound quality is also better on BlueJeans. I find it pretty intuitive and user-friendly."
"BlueJeans is a very good tool, and I have never experienced quality issues with the voice or video."
"The quality of both audio and video is good."
"The most valuable features of Cisco TelePresence are the basic standard features and the ease of use, and the configuration and integration are exemplary."
"We have a dual screen option to enable video and content sharing."
"If at any point we require any support or our team requires any support, we just call into the Cisco support with their call-in number and they are very good."
"Telepresence's most valuable feature is keeping highly paid employees, such as executives, on the ground instead of wasting time flying around the world. So if you have the right telepresence plan and form, it's not just the video cameras and the systems behind them, it's the way you lay out your meeting room.You can have multiple offices interconnecting in a single meeting, and it looks like everybody's in the same big conference room together because the telepresence yields such a fantastic amount of clarity."
"PresenterTrack cameras improve the meeting experience."
"Superior video and audio experience."
"The SpeakerTrack feature is the most valuable feature."
"TelePresence allows our customers to have a quick meeting while traveling and still be effective."
 

Cons

"Screen sharing is available but there is no feature for remote access, to take control of another machine."
"Its cost is very high. If you sell it in India, which is a price-conscious market, the prices should be as per the market competition. You cannot charge the rates that are applicable in the US. They should tailor it to the local market. It should be in line with what the competition is offering."
"Screen sharing is available but there is no feature for remote access, to take control of another machine."
"The annotation feature should be improved. So if I need to mark something or point something out, it's there, but it's not that user friendly."
"BlueJeans doesn't allow as much customization of your background in a video call, so that could be improved."
"I haven't had any big challenges. The annotation feature should be improved. So if I need to mark something or point something out, it's there, but it's not that user friendly. Other than that it's fine. In terms of collaboration, I think there could be some improvement."
"Its cost is very high. If you sell it in India, which is a price-conscious market, the prices should be as per the market competition."
"The price of Cisco TelePresence overall should be reduced."
"MX800 comes only with one available DVI port. A few more HDMI ports will improve the system's capability."
"MX800 comes only with one available DVI port. A few more HDMI ports will improve the system's capability."
"I was in touch with one of our clients and they mentioned that they would like to have a holographic video conferencing. It would be great if that feature would be added."
"Cisco TelePresence could improve its integration capabilities."
"The tool is expensive."
"Cisco TelePresence license is expensive and should be reduced."
"I was in touch with one of our clients and they mentioned that they would like to have a holographic video conferencing. It would be great if that feature would be added."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I once tried buying it for myself, but it was very costly. It is quite expensive as compared to other solutions. With BlueJeans, there are carrier charges if you call the toll-free number. The customer doesn't pay for the call, but the buyer or the subscriber of BlueJeans has to pay for it. That is where BlueJeans becomes very costly, and that is where Google, Microsoft Teams, and Zoom are very helpful because you don't have to pay these charges."
"Cisco TelePresence license is expensive and should be reduced. There is only a cost for the license and it is annually."
"I will rate the tool's pricing an eight out of ten."
"The pricing is expensive, therefore I rate it an eight out of ten."
"The price of Cisco Telepresence is high, especially in Brazil. However, the quality of the product justifies the cost."
"We used high definition, 1080p, but again, it required license purchases. For example, with three licenses (TP licenses), each allowing one 1080p screen, if I had six participants, I'd need to lower the resolution to 720p or lower to accommodate more participants. More licenses meant more cost."
