Intermedia AnyMeeting Pro vs. StarLeaf (discontinued)

AnyMeeting Pro is an easy-to-use tool and it is very resourceful as it comes with most features you would need for video conferencing and basic interactions. AnyMeeting conferencing eases most video conferencing issues. Most users can perform a video conferencing session at any time for strategy meetings or large groups. One of the features we enjoyed was seeing so many coworker's faces during the pandemic. It kept us connected with everyone.

StarLeaf is good because it is allowing our Company and global teams to create and conduct meetings and video calls. However, the mic often has issues as well as connection problems. The mobile app is excellent for joining the video conf calls.

• AnyMeeting does not require you to set up a different link for every scheduled call.
• AnyMeeting works on any platform.
• AnyMeeting does not require you to start the web agent in order to simply have a conference call.

Incentivized

• Integrating teams around the world.
• The connection from StarLeaf to IBM Lotus Notes calendar is very useful.

• It's great that webinar attendees can choose to attend online or dial in by phone, but it is not helpful at all that Anymeeting announces the number of people dialing in by phone. If there are 25 people attending a webinar online while 1 person calls in on the phone, that person will hear an automatic announcement that currently there are no other attendees online.
• It is great that the default webinar setting is for it to be recorded, but I wish there was no lag between the act of going live and the recording starting.

Incentivized

• The microphone has lots of issues, specially in the beginning of calls.
• Quality of the sound sometimes is not the greatest.

I give it a nine due to no fault really of the software. It mostly has to deal with buffering and bandwidth issues that could cause the program to not perform as promised. However, this is an area where most also fail. Our current software is horrible in comparison. Not being a decision-maker keeps us from enjoying AnyMeeting Pro on a more common basis. I would rather use this than Teams.

Never had to deal with customer support myself. I was told by our tech team that they were pretty responsive and again most issues could not be resolved due to the bandwidth of those attending meetings. The higher the bandwidth the more amazing the performance and the overall meeting flow and results.

Never used the StarLeaf support team.

We selected AnyMeeting due to its ease of use for presenters and also the ability to share presentations without screen-sharing

Microsoft Teams, when I used, was far better than StarLeaf, on video, sound, and feature connections.

Incentivized

• It has made it very easy to hold strategy calls with clients who want a recorded call to reference in the future.

Incentivized

• The capability of creating meetings with global teams.
• The connection with Lotus Notes calendar helps the team to manage the calendar and the meetings scheduled.
