Recording is really flaky. It needs external solution (jibri) and it's failing quite often.

Overall this is  good application and user friendly, easy to use.

This tool is an excellent option for making audio and video calls. Just create a room and post the link for anyone to join the meeting.

There's almost always a warning that my microphone is too loud. It's possible to clear it, but it doesn't explain how to lower the microphone level, but it's only a minor distraction.

It seemed to be the least costly option for online learning, which is good. Video and chat are nice options too.

The only negative point is that the messaging area (chat) has few resources. There is no option to share files.

My overall experience has been quite satisfying and good and I always found this app upto mark in the area of virtual meeting world.

I like, that Jitsi is open-source and under constant development. The interface has been renewed some time ago and it now looks good on desktop Pcs as well as on mobile devices.

The fact that you can start videochat without an account is very nice for communicating with different clients.

I have not come up against any weaknesses yet. The one thing I can remember, once I've noted an audio delay during the meeting.

Jitsi is a great open source platform for video conferencing. It has been a helpful tool for connecting with clients or team members.

The ability to quickly create a meeting room, wich a customized name and an easily accessible URL makes it perfect for everyday use.

It is very easy to use and the call quality is great.

Some problems with Firefox when presenter, but works with Chrome.

The free option was not good for me, as we cannot stop and start our meeting. Zoom would not offer discounted pricing for individual very light usage.

Jitsi Meet is a fully secure, scalable, easy to use, customizable and feature-rich solution, perfect choice for remote everyday use.

Jitsi is quite easy to use, has a friendly user interface and other cool features that it comes with without having to install a download a bunch of plugins.

Stability and bandwidth issues, even on a self hosted server, seems to cause some issues with heavy usage unfortunately.

I would recommend it to all of those who want to use alternatives to google hangouts, Skype, or Teams.

Sometimes it uses a lot of memory eventually phone gets heat up. Lagging occurs and it disconnects a lot in that case.

Recording meeting needs a separate piece of software (jibri) and it's quite flaky (it randomly produces broken files). Not clear server hardware requirements.

Its open, easy to integrate and use for another proportionals. Keep the connection stable and easy to manage the meetings and create new rooms.

It falls from time to time and you cannot depend exclusively on it if it's a super-important meeting, but for big gatherings in some situations it's perfect: completely free, reliable and easy to use.

Jitsi Meet integrates well with different calendar service providers  such as google calendar and so can be used to plan meetings just like any other video conferencing software.

It is a very good application, user friendly, easy to use, and practical for family meeting and business meetings.

The DropBox integration allows users to record their meetings and share the recordings easily with others.

This is a great tool when chosing from other options, and specially because time is important for me and my clients.

In general, Jitsi is a great option to have virtual meetings or webinars and avoiding having to install or having to do all the hassle from most of the rest of the tools which do the same.

Sometime you loose connection or cannot hear someone that neet to reload the browser.

Audio and video  quality is awesome. It is suitable for online conferences,classes in the case of lockdown due to corona outbreak , which helps for classes to be continued.

The best part is feeling secure because the titles of the rooms can be randomized words and it just feels like only people that need to be involved would ever think of.

Jitsi is an easy to use, free and good working software for video conferences, that offers a good amount of features and is constantly developed.

Allows me to connect with my team of software development which is overseas fairly easy. Very user friendly and gives you different options to use from.

We need to disconnect and reconnect. There is no warning or pop up message shown and you have to wonder if you are disconnected.

Great Mac and mobile clients. Good integration  with various hardware A/V options, great for conference room setups.

Every once in a while I get an error stating that I can not connect when using the land line option.

Sometimes it can be difficult to set up zoom or Microsoft teams meets with the life-size equipment. Same goes for Google meets.

Easy to use, superior quality. Giving priority to voice quality when the connection is weak is a Lifesize strength.

Having to renewal the license or your conferencing system is useless, the hardware is a little overpriced as well.

High quality video conferencing for a good price.

I regret the recent disappearance on the Lifesize application of the meeting rooms.

Initial set up is very complicated. If it is needed to change the system location or if the settings are changed due to internal problems, it is very difficult to set up again as a user.

When working, the quality is amazing. I like that so many aspects are controllable through remotely.

The software is feature rich. Based off of other video conferencing solutions I have used, Lifesize seems to have more capabilities and strong customer support.

The touch screen microphone, its easy to navigate for end users feedback has told me that its been nice and easy to use which is good.

We have four community stations so we use this every day for briefing and debriefing. We also regularly hold meetings which is a lifesaver for those who work swing and graveyard shifts.

Great quality video conferencing. Integration of all the units into one Console and being able to manage easily.

It is very easy to install and share the meeting links with other participants. The sounds quality is good and video is sufficient.

We use it to connect with our dedicated Video conferencing lines and systems. The sound and video quality is good.

Easy to set up and use for quick meetings requiring screen sharing and multiple users.

Software is great, the recent upgrade is fantastic, easy to use and will encourage my staff and guests to use it more.

Love the whole idea of being able to quickly video chat with a client or collaborate with your fellow work associates.

It is a great product, not cheap at all (licenses + hardware) but it is a good investment for a fast growing business.

I've had a very good experience overall. I would definitely recommend lifesize when using with a team that can be spread around the world.
