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.

Well-priced, user-friendly, and offers many great features

The solution is too big, too vast to really wrap your head around everything. There are too many directions it can go in. There aren't too many negatives. It's been an overall positive experience. Since they use a capacity license model, the problem is you have to do a first step proof of concept to see how many calls you have. This would dictate the license capacity you need to buy. The product could offer better backgrounds, or the ability to change the background.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The configuration is a valuable."

"The most valuable features of Cisco TelePresence are the basic standard features and the ease of use. Additionally, the configuration and integration are exemplary."

"Cisco is a leader in video conferencing solutions because they apply the latest technologies to their devices and services, such as artificial intelligence and versatile functionalities."

"TelePresence allows our customers to have a quick meeting while traveling and still be effective. It saves time and money."

"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."

"The speaker tracker feature in Cisco Telepresence is highly valuable, especially the ability to track multiple participants and change focus during meetings."

"We have a dual screen option to enable video and content sharing."

"The SpeakerTrack feature is the most valuable feature."

More Cisco TelePresence pros

"The solution offers a very user-friendly experience."

Cons

"Cisco TelePresence could improve the WebRTC connections, as they are quite slow."

"The calling features can be improved."

"I would rate my experience with the initial setup a three out of ten, with ten being expensive. It was complex with badges and certificates. Too crazy."

"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."

"MX800 comes only with one available DVI port. A few more HDMI ports will improve the system's capability."

"The tool is expensive."

"The price of Cisco TelePresence overall should be reduced."

"Since they use a capacity license model, the problem is you have to do a first step proof of concept to see how many calls you have."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."

"I will rate the tool's pricing an eight out of ten."

"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."

"Cisco TelePresence license is expensive and should be reduced. There is only a cost for the license and it is annually."
