Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I like the share information function."
"It is very easy to jump from one communication channel to another one. It is pretty clear and very easy to do. That is the thing that I like the most from Avaya and their suite."
"We use the solution for team collaboration, document sharing, and video conferencing services. It integrates well with on-premises video conferencing systems and supports chatting through text messaging and instant messaging."
"Interesting collaboration features."
"I have found Zoom to be stable and it has good performance."
"The initial setup is straightforward as this is a cloud application. It only takes a few seconds."
"It is a scalable solution."
"I rate Zoom as a seven out of ten. This is because it is much easier to use than Microsoft Teams."
"The initial setup is quick and easy."
"Zoom has a security feature that allows only authorized participants to join the meeting."
"The user interface is simple."
"The ability to share content is a great feature."
 

Cons

"Increase in participant numbers reduces quality of video and sound."
"The installation could be more straightforward. I would like it to work with other meeting software in the next release."
"Avaya IX Meetings' deployment is complex."
"There isn't too much information about Avaya solutions and that could be very much improved. If you want some product support, you have to go through a business partner in Latin America and there aren't many partners."
"I did not see a Whiteboarding feature when using Zoom. They should add this in the next release."
"I would like to see something like a virtual board or conference room where participants are seated around a virtual table, and pictures of them sitting on the chair or an avatar that the user can choose and control within that virtual world."
"The product's interface needs enhancement."
"It would be useful, for my purposes, to be able to run a meeting like a webinar where the solution doesn't show all of the people on the actual call. It would be great if it had the flexibility to allow people to "hide" themselves from the meeting, or to give the person running the meeting the capability of choosing who could be seen, or not."
"I don't know whose product is at fault, however, if you've ever had to go from Zoom to Teams to WebEx, it really messes around with your device settings."
"If anything, the updates could be less frequent."
"The only limitation in Zoom is related to the time limit for a call, which is about 40 minutes."
"They should remove any restriction of time."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Avaya IX Meetings' licensing costs are monthly."
"I'm using a subscription. The price is reasonable. It costs about $20 a year."
"I am using the free version of the solution. However, it has a time limit of 45 minutes for meetings. We do not have meetings longer than 45 minutes, it is fine for us."
"It is an inexpensive product."
"We have an annual subscription to the solution. The price could be reduced."
"The solution's pricing is good."
"I use the tool's free version."
"There are both free and paid versions available."
"Zoom can be used for free."
"I am not paying any licensing costs for the solution."
