	Amazon Chime
Considered Both Products	Amazon AWS Chris Beckel Operations Manager at Beat Insurance Services, LLC. (Insurance, 1-10 employees) Chose Amazon Chime We like the Amazon Chime versus Teams - more features and easy to use. We are able to use instant messages - create rooms and do instant training with screen sharing immediately when needed. All of our users have picked it up quickly and really like it. We quit using teams … Incentivized Helpful? Omkar Marne Software Engineer in Information Technology at University of North Carolina at Charlotte (Higher Education, 1001-5000 employees) Chose Amazon Chime Amazon has a very good audio and video quality. Chime's video conferencing feature works as expected there is no lag in the audio. If the internet speed is about 50 mpbs + then it works as a charm! At times the desktop can get slow but the mobile application is pretty fast as … Incentivized Helpful? Akhilesh Arya Assistant Professor at Geetanjali Institute of Technical Studies, Udaipur (Higher Education, 51-200 employees) Chose Amazon Chime Chime is less expensive in comparison to zoom. Incentivized Helpful? Ravinder Beniwal Sr. Consultant in Engineering at UnitedLex (Legal Services, 1001-5000 employees) Chose Amazon Chime Our reason for the selection of Amazon Chime was a client recommendation. In a comparison of other competitor's products, Amazon Chime provides similar functionality and features. From a pricing perspective, you may opt for pay-per-use pricing which could be confusing for some … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Amazon Chime Users have a level of familarity with other market leading collaboration products. However we selected this for the single dashboard for chat, calling, meeting and messaging specifically on phone app. There is a very simple interface with a minimum of clicks to launch the … Incentivized Helpful? Peter Vadelnieks Customer Support and Project Manager in Customer Service at SES-imagotag (Retail, 501-1000 employees) Chose Amazon Chime It's slower and the user experience is much clunkier. It seems like it was developed by and for other developers, not the normal public. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Amazon Chime Better than Skype for Business in terms of loading the application onto your device. Skype had crashing issues always and those are comparatively low when using Amazon Chime. Amazon chime is fast and easy to work with while collaborating and setting up meetings. The audio and … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Amazon Chime I have not tested Amazon Chime, against other market alternatives, as it is being used to meet a specific demand, which is communication with certain companies, as it is the preferred means of communication. But, it is a good tool and does not lose anything to the other tools … Incentivized Helpful? YagneshKumar Patel Software Support Engineer in Information Technology at ProfitSword, LLC (Hospitality, 51-200 employees) Chose Amazon Chime All the mentioned above products are better if not rated much higher with the features they have compared to Amazon Chime. Amazon Chime does not support well with google calendar and other negative features I mentioned compared to other products. Amazon Chime lacks features … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Amazon Chime We chose Amazon Chime due to better pricing, ease of implementation, and great customer support from their team. Better product overall in terms of reliability. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Amazon Chime Amazon Chime stacks up cleaner and much more intuitive to Google Hangouts Chat. In comparison to Slack, Amazon Chime is much better because Slack is not conducive to having a face-to-face conversation, much less, screen sharing. Microsoft Teams was hard to use when some of our … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Amazon Chime Amazon's Chime is lightweight and has easy integrations with Slack. Cloud Trail has good call reports, doesn't take time to load compared to other products that I have tried. Its APIs exposed by Amazon are really helpful to customize. The shift from one user to another for … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Amazon Chime I believe the two products (Slack and Skype) are better suited for the situations where it is a smaller crowd. This is due to those systems being easier to chat within and collaborate in the smaller environment. Incentivized Helpful? Keith Lillico, M.Ed, MBA Owner/Independent Instructional Designer in Corporate at Lillico Learning (E-Learning, 1-10 employees) Chose Amazon Chime Amazon Chime product stacks up pretty much equal to the other pieces of software that we have used in the past. What drives the use of the software over the others is purely preference. My team has adapted to using this software, and now it has become what they would rather … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Amazon Chime We used to use Go To Meeting/Go To Webinar for our web conferencing and AT&T Teleconferencing numbers, either separately or in conjunction with the Go To Meeting/Go To Webinar. I liked that Go To Webinar allowed people to pre-register, which gave us the opportunity to prepare. … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Amazon Chime Chime was a lot less expensive that WebEx. It was also easier to use and maintain. Incentivized Helpful? Melinda Saternis Site Opertaions - Content Assistant: Men's Direct Marketing in Corporate at Brooks Brothers (Retail, 1001-5000 employees) Chose Amazon Chime I would say Chime is step below Teams, but manages to get the job done. Chime is more straight forward and simplistic and meets all our basic needs for internal chat. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Amazon Chime They are all good products, but here is why we switched: 1. UberConf. This was the first conference software we used. It used to be great, it actually had a free version that worked perfectly. Then the service started to falter, mostly lag time between user and presenter. And … Incentivized Helpful? Jesse Bickel, MS - PMP Sr. IT Project Manager in Information Technology at CaptureRx (Hospital & Health Care, 51-200 employees) Chose Amazon Chime Amazon Chime WILL become an industry leader. Amazon is still behind WebEx and is gaining ground on Microsoft. The advantage Microsoft will have is the ability to embed in organizations through Office, and have that advantage over WebEx as well. We selected Amazon Chime as … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Amazon Chime I believe Amazon Chime is better, easier to use, and had better quality video/audio Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Amazon Chime AWS Chime is very comparable to Zoom meeting. Monthly costs are usually cheaper but are variable and can fluctuate. Reporting on AWS Chime is great but needs some additional back-end set-up that could be cumbersome. Overall... ease, quality, look and set-up is very easy. … Incentivized Helpful? Shane Finnegan Account Manager in Sales at Jinfonet Software (Computer Software, 51-200 employees) Chose Amazon Chime I have used GoToMeeting, which is a major competitor to Amazon Chime, and I can confidently say that GoToMeeting is literally ten times better. We rarely have any of the issues with GoToMeeting that we do with Amazon Chime. I highly recommend GoToMeeting over Amazon Chime … Incentivized Helpful? Jeff Zhao Senior IT Administrator in Engineering at Primatics Financial (Telecommunications, 51-200 employees) Chose Amazon Chime High quality of audio and video, and great meeting experiences. Incentivized Helpful? Emma McCarthy Enrollment and Eligibility Program Manager in Professional Services at MetrixIQ (Information Technology and Services, 11-50 employees) Chose Amazon Chime Amazon Chime is great for call and video quality. It's pretty comparable to Zoom both in cost and capabilities. It's definitely superior to UberConference and Join.me, both of which are not particularly reliable. I have had call quality and the screen shares freeze up. … Incentivized Helpful? Perry Hahn AV Supervisor in Customer Service at Avisys, Inc. Amazon Account (Staffing and Recruiting, 51-200 employees) Chose Amazon Chime Chime and Biba are interchangeable to me, both accomplish the same task. We have transitioned to Chime as it was created by Amazon and we support Amazon, so it was an easy decision for us. I do enjoy Chime more as it just seems to work effortlessly. I would recommend it to all. Incentivized Helpful?
