Saurabh Srivastav - PeerSpot reviewer
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…
Arun Srivastav - PeerSpot reviewer
Seamless presentation and collaboration enhance organizational productivity
There are three main areas for improvement: Firstly, AI capabilities should be integrated into Microsoft Teams to provide better transcript services and offer multiple language support. Secondly, it should allow participants to remain visible during presentations, enhancing interaction. Lastly, it needs broader integration capabilities with other products, like Salesforce ( /vendors/salesforce ), which is currently limited.

Pros

"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."
"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."
"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."
"The quality of both audio and video is good."
"The tool's integration capabilities are seamless."
"It is an excellent all-around communications tool that works well for business purposes."
"The product is very user-friendly."
"Microsoft Teams is much easier to collaborate, and its meetings are quite easy to explain things."
"The tool is scalable, flexible, and good in all aspects. I am impressed with its meeting schedules, remote support, and chat."
"The initial setup was really straightforward and easy."
"SharePoint is the most important thing of the solution where you can share your data. I am also impressed with the real-time transcript feature."
"Sharing documents in real-time has been incredibly helpful."
 

Cons

"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."
"BlueJeans doesn't allow as much customization of your background in a video call, so that could be improved."
"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."
"Microsoft Teams could work faster if set up on other devices like cell phones."
"Inability to call into meetings."
"The solution’s stability could be improved."
"The solution's login process could be more straightforward."
"I'd like to see better document-sharing capabilities. Sharing multiple documents during a meeting can take time, especially on Mac. On Windows, you can switch shared content on the fly, but on Mac, I often have to stop sharing and then choose another window to share."
"Microsoft Teams' current features are not user-friendly, making it difficult for end-users to locate and understand them. There have also been issues with crashes, which is a concern in the current scenario."
"The solution’s initial setup is complex and could be improved."
"The call quality could be better sometimes. Microsoft could improve the quality of the backgrounds. File sharing could also be smoother. It takes a lot of clicks to download and copy the links. It should be only one click."
 

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."
"If you have clients who do not have a computer and are joining with their phones it's an additional fee of $5.00 per user."
"I use Teams' free version."
"It is a bit more than moderately expensive."
"Microsoft Teams is expensive compared to other solutions."
"The tool's price is part of MS Office 365 and I would rate its pricing five out of ten. The tool's licensing costs are monthly."
"It is expensive."
"The tool is cheaper than Google Meet. I rate it a three out of four."
"It is moderately expensive than other Microsoft products."
