Considered Both Products	Discontinued Products Courtney Birnbaum Senior Specialist, Publications in Product Management at Learfield (Publishing, 501-1000 employees) Chose BlueJeans Meetings (discontinued) BlueJeans Meetings is the most deluxe, feature-heavy webinar and virtual meetings software program I have used. We began using it to connect for All-Hands Meetings for our country-wide company offices without needing to travel to be together, and we transitioned to using it … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose BlueJeans Meetings (discontinued) Poor. In my opinion, they are the worst platform of the above 3. In my experience, BlueJeans Meetings does nothing special or even well. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose BlueJeans Meetings (discontinued) It was easier for us to develop and deliver this software beside our business Incentivized Helpful? Luciano Toledo Digital Director in Marketing at X Data Digital (Marketing & Advertising, 1-10 employees) Chose BlueJeans Meetings (discontinued) BlueJeans Meetings has the best price and quality for us. Incentivized Helpful? Mohsin Akhtar Product Manager in Marketing at Macmillan Education India (Publishing, 1001-5000 employees) Chose BlueJeans Meetings (discontinued) I've utilized and upheld many gathering items in my vocation (Zoom, gotomeeting, WebEx) and BlueJeans Meetings certainly has the least hindrance to getting a quick meeting started and is one of the easiest platforms to support. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose BlueJeans Meetings (discontinued) BlueJeans is superior in every category compared to these other apps and the quality is unmatched however it does need better customer service support and more monthly deals on payment plans. Their customer service is good but it can get to be great in due time as well. Overall … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose BlueJeans Meetings (discontinued) Bluejeans is on top mostly because of the audio & video qulaity which no one can beat. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose BlueJeans Meetings (discontinued) I actually feel that BlueJeans is at the bottom of these two competitors. Blue jeans could be the best for a position that is internally facing, but with my often client-facing work, I do not leverage BlueJeans for as much value as it can add to an internal-facing employee. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose BlueJeans Meetings (discontinued) Bluejeans performance is better, it’s more secure, and it integration is fully customizable. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose BlueJeans Meetings (discontinued) Bluejeans started to become strong in this virtual meetings and conferencing categories when many systems were not as powerful and feature packed and this gives them a certain kind of a lead in bringing the best and latest features to the platform, which is why I think there … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose BlueJeans Meetings (discontinued) BlueJeans has better troubleshooting of attendees over Zoom. BlueJeans scheduling interface is more intuitive than Zoom. Quality and call handling has seem a little better in the competitor products over BlueJeans especially when it comes to IP/H323 dialing and bridging. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose BlueJeans Meetings (discontinued) I think BlueJeans stacks up well against all its competition in this virtual meeting marketplace. BlueJeans has all the key features my users want and if they do not have a feature, BlueJeans has always taken our feedback and made improvements on their product in the requested … Incentivized Helpful? Tony Orum at EYM (Non-profit Organization Management, 1-10 employees) Chose BlueJeans Meetings (discontinued) BlueJeans is a fair competition to these other platforms. However, for what it charges monthly the features could be a lot more reliable. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose BlueJeans Meetings (discontinued) PROS: Has the best layout controls amongst all competing platforms All options to connect are easy Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose BlueJeans Meetings (discontinued) Where BlueJeans scores over others: Layout controls. The moderator can define the layout for all participants. Scheduling. This could be a personal opinion, but scheduling on BlueJeans just works and FEELS better than most other platforms, though all other platforms can do the … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose BlueJeans Meetings (discontinued) I know BlueJeans through a customer (Inchcape) and I prefer the design, stability and security. For events I use WebinarJam, I've never used BlueJeans Events in order to compare. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose BlueJeans Meetings (discontinued) BlueJeans came out on top as the best working solution and at an affordable price. We only lack one feature which is recording sharing with password. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose BlueJeans Meetings (discontinued) Zoom and Webex work pretty well, and I would say those are my top three choices. BlueJeans seemed to be the best fit for us with the price point package they offered. The only downside is that I feel like the other two are more widely used at this time and therefore easier to … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose BlueJeans Meetings (discontinued) BlueJeans was friendlier to use vs. Webex, but falls short in comparison to Zoom and Hangouts. Zoom has a much lower barrier to entry to use with non-tech saavy people. Hangouts Meet had a better and more seamless integration with the G suite apps egosystem (obviously). As an … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose BlueJeans Meetings (discontinued) BlueJeans definitely feels like the corporate/enterprise horse in this race, which is actually more complex than what our business wants and needs. But we chose it because our enterprise clients use it, and attending meetings hosted by them was a pretty bad experience when we … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose BlueJeans Meetings (discontinued) I would say Zoom is the best one and then BlueJeans. I would prefer to use Google Hangouts, but it lacks certain features that both BlueJeans and Zoom have. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose BlueJeans Meetings (discontinued) BlueJeans is easier to connect, more stable, more user-friendly, has a better look and feel, and delivers a better experience overall. I genuinely believe this is the best solution in the market. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose BlueJeans Meetings (discontinued) I haven't been involved in the tool evaluation, hence I can't comment on this. But as a user, I certainly found BlueJeans nice compared to my previous experience with WebEx. Incentivized Helpful?	Google Verified User Chose Google Meet At the time we stayed with Google Hangouts Meet as it was already integrated into our main email delivery. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Google Meet The benefit for google hangouts meet is its seamless integration with Gmail and since most of the users have a Gmail account, it becomes a fast and reliable experience. Nevertheless, other tools have a better UI and feature list as compared to google hangouts meet. The UI for … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Google Meet As stated before we prefer Zoom. It has more features and our staff has simply grown used to Zoom and prefers this platform. Zoom continues to innovate almost every month. Our Zoom rep is very good and responsive. We tested Google Hangouts Meet after using Zoom and decided to … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Google Meet All key features are working similar accept an option to record sessions. This is one of our top priority. At the moment we are using Cisco Webex besides Google hangout meets that we us for our online lectures. We might be open to use Google Meet if this option would be … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Google Meet Google Meet is about the same level of convenience and I use it like Skype and BlueJeans for my needs and my subscription levels. Zoom and Microsoft Teams (which we subscribe to as well) have much better features for our educational use cases like classrooms. Incentivized Helpful?
