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 share screen option available during conferences is one of the best features of Cisco Meeting Server."

"What I like most about Cisco Meeting Server is its quick management. The solution also has a straightforward configuration."

"Cisco Meeting Server is an easy and less complex solution."

"You can use the Cisco Meeting Server to set up conference calls and virtual meetings. Those are the two primary functions of Meeting Server. Most people in the company are using Microsoft Teams, so we only use Meeting Server when we have an internal meeting for all staff."

"The UI is user-friendly and very good overall."

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

Cons

"Cisco Meeting Server should include a feature to control another user's screen during a remote session."

"A few features are missing on the Meetings app, like a recording function. My understanding is that you need to buy a separate recording solution. It's modular, so you have to enable some functions if you want to use them. For example, we had to enable the Mood function. Recording is the primary feature we'd like to see in the app."

"What would make Cisco Meeting Server better is integrating it with Zoom and Teams so that you can connect or make a call through any of the two third-party solutions."

"In Cisco Meeting Server, GUI is an area of concern where improvements are required."

"This is a difficult solution to install and it should be made easier."

"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

"Price-wise, Cisco Meeting Server is a product that falls in a mid-range category."

"Licensing fees are billed yearly."

"Cisco Meeting Server has reasonable licensing costs."
