Actually that is the case for many of the options. However, nobody else on my team has a problem with the user interface.

If you like to have a real conversation with your online community, BHOA is the way to go.

It is easy to use and does not detract from its operability and functionality, it is excellent for internal video conferencing and the interaction with the user is perfect.

It allows you to customize your videoconferences to the style that you have in your company, being a low cost tool with respect to skills, so it is very useful when you hold meetings online.

I like that you can have multiple participants and share photos and documents back and forth all within the Google framework.

It is easy to schedule calls and meetings. There are many features that help a lot, like file sharing, polling, screen sharing and more.

At times, the system can be laggy and cut out abruptly while on a call. Also, some people struggle with logging into the platform.

I use a lot for weekly and monthly meetings with my managers. Good interface, quality of the calls good at last without doubt the best in the market.

Excellent connectivity, good interaction with other platforms and this allows you full access to other users.

Great stability, audio and video streaming, high quality, easy to use, UX/UI are simple and awesome.

I hate the fact that sometimes it can be very slow to load things and when you use the software the video call can sometimes freeze and it can be very frustrating.

The fact that some voices might not be heard during the meeting as a result of poor connectivity to internet.

The outstanding features of the business hangouts makes this software powerhouse such as file sharing, polling, screen, video sharing and the ability to record.

My team and I use Google Hangouts every day. We love the seamless integration with Google Calendar, and how easy it is to control bandwidth.

I really thought that it was very easy to use and it provide a much better option of video conferences than most of the other video platform.

Google Hangout the best tool for virtual meetings so far.

No other team has a community of helpful response within 24 hours. They listen and they respond...and you get help from other experienced users too.

Less discernible skipping of audio/video when compared to Skype or GoToWebinar, where high speed internet access is available. Cost is better than GTW.

It fits great with anything you need to do to integrate multimedia into a presentation. As a youtube and animation into presentation-a-holic I found this to be especially awesome.

I love the simplicity of setting up a meeting with someone using Hangout. It's like a cake walk - so easy and streamlined.

Great customer support team, very helpful and reliable. Infact, i like it because it is easy and fast to install and set up.

The Desktop call quality is great but the interface still have rooms for improvement.

Cisco messaging application losing some ground.

Cost-effective, user-friendly, very rare outage & quality of calls is really good.

Cisco Jabber is a great tool for unified messaging. It has been a great tool for people to have on their phones and work remotely.

No one ever is on Jabber anymore at my company, and I can't blame them as it's ugly and reminds me of AIM and MSN Messenger days.

Definitely a great product and would recommend it to anyone who is looking for a system like this one.

It loads quickly and integrates seamless with Cisco Webex while setting up or attending meetings. Being able to take and make work calls through the cell phone using the app is extremely useful.

The design is very dull. The fuctionalities are just limited to chat and voice call, no vodeo call.

As someone who often works out and about in the community this software is incredibly convenient and helpful.

The best thing is that it is integrated with the phone so it is best suitable and widely available on the go. It providesus a medium to collaborative with our colleagues.

Collaboration via Jabber was nearly seamless and it simply is easy to use and intuitive to connect with others. I love desktop sharing and file sharing with this tool.

It’s good to communicate with your colleagues without bothering the location. So I will recommend it to all.

This software is one of the best buy for me. Its a reallly good integration with webex , outlook and other tools.

Just like MSN Messenger back in the days. The interface is somewhat intuitive and the quality is excellent.

Trying to transfer calls can be a pain and it can be hard trying to easily see your coworkers who are also on the line with you.

Calendar sharing is an excellent feature, and on-demand pricing make this Cisco brand software competitive in the market.

Very easy to use and secure. It does what it is designed to do without bells and whistles, but feels appropriate for the work place.

The application is great and offers you almost all the basic features required in an IM application. Screen Share feature and the ability to pass the control to someone else.

Its pretty nice software to have group chat and discussions which is good for Team collaboration. Individual Call and screen sharing facility is pretty good.

The calls are really clear, the voicemail allowance is generous, and they contact you when it fills up, which is a pretty pleasant function. Excellent customer support that is dependable and friendly.

Overall Cisco Jabber helps me to connect and communicate effectively with my colleagues. I can easily complete complicated tasks with the help of my colleagues using this wonderful software.

The interface is quite straightforward and the biggest advantage is the seamless integration with cisco webex which is a big help in staying on top of those constant video calls.
